  • Assist embroidery, heat transfer, direct-to-garment, and screen-print machine operators with loading, unloading, setup, and in-process support throughout the shift.
  • Proactively restock machine supplies, including thread, backing, transfer paper, tape, and polybags, to avoid operator interruptions.
  • Support the Warehouse and Receiving Lead with job staging, material pulls, and receiving tasks during high-volume periods.
  • Assist the Shipping and Fulfillment Coordinator with packing and order handoffs when finishing volume allows.
  • Adapt to shifting priorities as directed by the Production Lead.
  • Maintain a clean, organized, and safe production floor throughout the shift.

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience in a production, apparel, manufacturing, or warehouse environment.
