Blackout Defense is seeking a skilled and detail-oriented Trigger Assembly Technician to join our manufacturing team. This role focuses on the assembly, inspection, tuning, and quality control of AR15 trigger systems and related firearm components.


The ideal candidate must have prior firearm experience through professional work, personal build experience, competition shooting, gunsmithing, or similar hands-on exposure. This is not an entry-level firearm role — candidates must understand how an AR15 trigger should properly function and feel.

    •  Tight or damaged threads

    •  Improper fitment or machining inconsistencies 
  •  Perform quality control checks to ensure products meet company standards 
  •  Maintain organized workstations and follow assembly procedures 
  •  Assist with production workflow and continuous improvement efforts 
Qualifications


  •  Strong familiarity with AR15 platform firearms 
  •  Hands-on experience with AR15 triggers and lower receiver components 
  •  Ability to identify proper trigger feel and diagnose functional issues 
  •  Mechanical aptitude and strong attention to detail 
  •  Comfortable working with small parts and precision assemblies 
  •  Ability to follow instructions and maintain consistency in assembly processes 
  •  Reliable, punctual, and team-oriented 
Preferred Experience


  •  Firearm manufacturing or gunsmithing experience 
  •  Competitive shooting or extensive personal AR15 build experience 
  •  Experience working with tolerances, fitment, and QC inspection processes 
  •  Familiarity with trigger tuning and diagnostics 
Compensation & Benefits


  •  $20–25/hr depending on experience 
  •  Paid time off 
  •  Paid sick time 
  •  Employee discounts 
  •  Industry pro discounts 
  •  Opportunity for advancement 
  •  Team-oriented work environment
