Job description

MACHINE OPERATOR – 2ND SHIFT

Monday–Thursday | 3:15 PM–1:45 AM
4-Day Workweek • Full-Time • Benefits • Bonus Opportunities

Want your Fridays back?

We are looking for dependable, hands-on people to join our manufacturing team as Machine Operators. If you like staying busy, learning how equipment works, and being able to see what you accomplished at the end of your shift, this could be a great fit.

Best of all — our regular 2nd-shift schedule is Monday through Thursday. That means a 3-day weekend every week!

Why Work With Us?

We want our employees to have more than just a paycheck. Our team members have access to:

  • 4-day workweek – Monday through Thursday (occasional Friday OT)

  • Medical and other benefit options

  • 401(k) with company match

  • Quarterly bonus opportunities

  • Monthly employee lunches

  • Paid time off

  • Consistent full-time schedule

  • Opportunities to learn multiple machines and manufacturing processes

  • Overtime opportunities when available

  • A smaller manufacturing environment where your work actually matters

What You'll Be Doing

As a Machine Operator, you'll learn to set up, operate, and monitor manufacturing equipment used in our production process. Depending on your assigned area, your responsibilities may include:

  • Setting up and operating production machinery, including stranding equipment

  • Loading and changing reels/spools of material

  • Monitoring equipment throughout production runs

  • Performing quality checks to make sure finished material meets specifications

  • Completing required production paperwork

  • Identifying and reporting equipment or quality concerns

  • Using a forklift and material-handling equipment

  • Keeping your work area clean, organized, and safe

  • Working with your team to meet daily production goals

  • Learning additional equipment and processes as you gain experience

What We're Looking For

We're looking for someone who:

  • Shows up consistently and on time

  • Is willing to learn and take direction

  • Pays attention to quality and detail

  • Can work safely around manufacturing equipment

  • Is comfortable working on their feet throughout the shift

  • Can regularly lift and handle materials weighing up to 50 lbs.

  • Works well independently and as part of a team

  • Takes pride in doing the job correctly

Manufacturing or machine-operation experience is required, but reliability, work ethic, and willingness to learn are just as important to us.

Schedule

2nd Shift: Monday–Thursday, 3:15 PM–1:45 AM

Some Friday overtime may be available or required depending on production needs.

Four Days On. Three Days Off. Every Week.

If you're looking for steady full-time work, benefits, bonus opportunities, and a schedule that gives you more of your week back, we'd like to hear from you.
