JOB PURPOSE
The Manufacturing Assembler turns raw components into finished product: on schedule, to spec, and without cutting corners.
We're looking for someone who's steady with their hands, comfortable following detailed work instructions, and reliable enough that the team can count on them shift after shift. You'll be assigned to one area, while also cross training across multiple processes: mechanical assembly, filament winding support, rotomold operations, so versatility and attention to detail matter here as much as speed.

Based on production needs, this position may require mandatory overtime, including evenings or weekends, with overtime pay for all qualifying hours as required by law.
In exchange, you'll receive cross-training across assembly, filament winding, and rotomold operations. You'll join a team that takes pride in precision and has each other's backs on the floor, doing work that's seen and valued every day.
Regular and timely attendance is an essential function of this position.
