  • Install fasteners, inserts, brackets, labels, seals, and other components using appropriate hand and power tools.
  • Verify that all required components are present before beginning assembly.
  • Confirm part numbers, job numbers, revisions, quantities, and assembly requirements.
  • Inspect components for visible damage, defects, incorrect parts, or workmanship issues before assembly and packing.
  • Ensure assembled products meet applicable drawing, quality, and customer requirements.
  • Immediately report missing components, damaged parts, drawing discrepancies, or quality concerns to the appropriate supervisor.
  • Clean and prepare finished parts before packaging.
  • Select appropriate packaging materials based on the size, weight, finish, and customer requirements of the product.
  • Properly wrap, cushion, separate, box, crate, palletize, and secure products to prevent damage during storage or transportation.
  • Protect painted, powder-coated, plated, machined, and other finished surfaces from scratching or damage.
  • Verify quantities and contents before sealing packages.
  • Apply required labels, part identification, job information, handling instructions, and shipping documentation.
  • Maintain accurate packing records and complete required production paperwork.
  • Move completed products to the proper staging or shipping area.
  • Maintain a clean, organized, and safe assembly and packing workspace.
  • Work with Production, Quality, and Shipping to ensure jobs are completed and prepared for shipment on time.
  • Assist in identifying ways to improve assembly methods, packaging quality, material usage, and workflow efficiency.

Secondary Responsibilities: Shipping and Receiving Backup:
When providing backup coverage or additional support, responsibilities may include:
  • Receive raw materials, purchased parts, hardware, supplies, and outside-processed components.
  • Safely unload and move incoming shipments using pallet jacks, carts, forklifts, or other material-handling equipment.
  • Compare incoming shipments against purchase orders and packing slips.
  • Verify part numbers, descriptions, quantities, and material information.
  • Inspect shipments for visible damage, shortages, overages, or incorrect items.
  • Report receiving discrepancies to Purchasing, Quality, or the appropriate supervisor.
  • Enter receiving transactions into the company's ERP system.
  • Label received materials and place them in the appropriate inventory or production location.
  • Collect and route packing slips, material certifications, certificates of conformance, and other required documents.
  • Prepare completed orders for customer shipment.

  • Create or assist with packing slips, shipping labels, and bills of lading.

  • Support cycle counts, inventory organization, and investigation of material discrepancies.

  • Basic computer skills and the ability to learn the company's ERP and shipping systems.
  • Effective communication and teamwork skills.
  • Willingness to adjust priorities and assist other employees or departments when needed.
  • Ability to work independently after receiving appropriate training.
  • Ability to work full-time on-site at our Rocklin, California facility.

Preferred Experience:
