Build, Move, Prepare, and Keep Production Running

Are you someone who enjoys hands-on work, staying active throughout the day, and being a key part of a team? We're looking for an Operations Generalist to support critical production and refurbishment operations by preparing components, managing materials, operating equipment, and ensuring parts move efficiently through the manufacturing process.

In this role, you'll work with everything from small precision components to large engine housings while supporting multiple production areas. No two days are exactly the same, making this a great opportunity for individuals who enjoy variety, teamwork, and problem-solving.

What You'll Do

  • Prepare components for shot peen, painting, plasma processing, and machining by masking parts according to detailed schematics and work instructions.
  • Apply masking materials to a wide variety of components, ranging from small parts to large engine housings.
  • Receive, track, and deliver incoming materials to the appropriate production cells.
  • Transport parts between multiple buildings across campus to keep production moving efficiently.
  • Monitor inventory levels and replenish tooling, parts, and supplies throughout production areas.
  • Support Foreign Object Debris (FOD) control efforts by locating and resolving missing or misplaced materials.
  • Operate automated aqueous cleaning equipment and parts washing systems following established procedures.
  • Maintain a safe, organized, and clean work environment while collaborating with teammates across departments.

What We're Looking For

  • High school diploma or GED.
  • Ability to remain active throughout the day, including standing, walking, and moving materials.
  • Experience following written work instructions, blueprints, or schematics.
  • Comfortable using hand tools in a manufacturing, warehouse, automotive, or construction environment.
  • Strong attention to detail and commitment to quality.
  • Dependable and organized with the ability to accurately track and handle parts.
  • Team-oriented mindset with a willingness to support multiple production areas.

Experience That Stands Out

We value candidates from a variety of backgrounds, including:

  • Automotive technicians, mechanics, and individuals who work on vehicles as a hobby.
  • Construction professionals and skilled laborers.
  • Manufacturing associates, machine operators, warehouse workers, and material handlers.
  • Medical professionals familiar with precision work and cleanliness standards.
  • Restaurant and service industry employees who thrive in fast-paced environments.

Why Join Us?

  • Hands-on work that keeps you engaged and moving.
  • Opportunity to learn multiple production processes and manufacturing operations.
  • Collaborative team environment where your contributions directly impact daily production success.
  • Stable work with opportunities to expand your skills and grow within the organization.

If you enjoy working with your hands, solving problems, and being part of a team that keeps operations moving, we'd love to hear from you. Apply today!
