A day in this role
You’ll be the go-to on an assembly line building refrigeration display cases and related sub-assemblies. From your fixed workstation, you’ll set up equipment, run and maintain machinery, and jump in to troubleshoot non-routine issues. As the line advances, you’ll install parts and components with precision, keep materials moving, and pack or sort finished goods. You’ll keep a sharp eye on quality, separating any defects for rework or scrap, and you’ll capture accurate, daily production records used by our operations teams.
How you’ll lead Guide day-to-day line activities with limited supervision, especially in non-routine situations.
Train, delegate, and review the work of team members to maintain pace and quality.
Apply advanced knowledge of assembly procedures, tools, and safe operating practices (Support 4 level). Vocational or technical education may support success in this role.
Tackle difficult, non-routine problems (not overly complex) with sound judgment and timely escalation when needed.
What you bring
Strong hands-on experience setting up, operating, maintaining, and troubleshooting assembly-line machinery/equipment.
Skill installing components to in-process products as they progress along the line.
Comfort moving materials, packing, and sorting output while maintaining throughput.
Attention to detail in quality checks and production documentation.
Compensation Pay Range: USD 24.00 - 26.00 Hourly Eligible to earn commissions based on performance metrics and other criteria outlined in our applicable commissions plan.
We determine pay using several job-related, non-discriminatory factors, including responsibilities, relevant experience, education/training, work location, and key skills. Pay is one part of our broader Total Rewards.
