Through PrideStaff, you have the opportunity to join a stable, fast-paced production environment where your work contributes to products that are used in critical environments across the globe.

The Role

  • Precision Finishing: Perform silk-screen stamping on products with high manual dexterity and a strong focus on hand safety.
  • Quality Control: Constantly monitor "run status," check the accuracy of machine cuts, and inspect sub-assemblies.
  • Flow & Logistics: Stack processed materials and transport them to the large-scale Seal-a-tron machines for final bulk packaging.

What You Bring
  • Technical Aptitude: 1+ years' experience operating light industrial machinery (experience with shrink wrappers or laminators is a major plus).
  • Dexterity & Safety: High level of hand-eye coordination for silk screening and feeding materials safely into equipment.
  • Physical Stamina: Ability to stand for the duration of your shift, push/pull material, and lift up to 35-50 lbs regularly.
  • Longevity: Competitive applicants will have a history of staying with employers for at least 1-2 years.
