is a fast‑growing custom print and decal shop specializing in high-quality vinyl decals, custom apparel, screen printing, and digital print services.

• Operate manual screen‑printing presses for single and multi‑color designs
• Press shirts and ensure consistent print quality
• Maintain cleanliness of press area, screens, tools, and equipment
• Track and maintain supply levels (ink, emulsion, tape, chemicals, etc.)
• Complete orders accurately and within required deadlines

Cross‑Department Support

• Assist with vinyl production during downtime (weeding, masking, cutting)
• Assist with checking in garments
• Help in decal, print, vinyl, and art departments as needed
• Support general shop workflow to keep production moving smoothly

• Ability to stand for the entire shift
• Able to lift up to 50 lbs
• Comfortable working in a fast‑paced, deadline‑driven environment
• Strong attention to detail and pride in producing clean, high‑quality work
• Ability to follow instructions and maintain consistent production standards

• Previous screen‑printing experience (manual press preferred)
• Knowledge of screen prep, exposure, registration, and ink handling
• Basic understanding of artwork setup and film output
• Ability to troubleshoot common screen‑printing issues

• Air‑conditioned production environment
• Growing business with opportunities to expand your skillset
• Hands‑on, creative work with a variety of print and decal projects
• Supportive team that values quality, efficiency, and craftsmanship
