Job description

Ready to Own the Aisle in Houston, TX 77073?

Do you read a tape measure without thinking twice? Are you licensed on a forklift and curious about overhead cranes? Do you like turning rough metal into finished, ready-to-ship parts? Step into a role where your precision and drive keep our warehouse moving.

Your Mission

Operate heavy forklifts, master metals finishing, and keep inventory accurate—while staying relentlessly safe and helping teammates perform at their best.

Day-to-Day Highlights

  • Inspect forklifts routinely; call out maintenance needs before they become issues.
  • Champion safety standards and coach others by example.
  • Work side-by-side with the team to smooth out workflow and boost throughput.
  • Log inventory movements and equipment use with precision.
  • Help train new operators on safe, efficient practices.
  • Expand your capabilities by rotating into other departments as needed.
  • Finish metal parts: paint, grind, deburr, phosphate, and cold roll; support surface finishing (shot peen, cold roll, phosphating).
  • Level up to overhead crane operation and learn additional machinery.
  • Keep work areas spotless—warehouse, shop, and yard—and move tools on/off racks.
What You’ll Bring
  • High school diploma or equivalent preferred.
  • Knowledge of warehouse safety rules and best practices.
  • Ability to handle heavy lifting and physical tasks throughout the shift.
  • Strong communicator with a team-first, dependable approach.
  • Willingness to learn and solid technical aptitude.
  • Current forklift license; crane training provided.
  • Experience loading/unloading trucks and general shop cleanup.
  • Painting and grinding capability; comfort with surface finishing (shot peen, cold roll, phosphating).
  • Shop math skills and accurate tape measure reading.
  • Open to other duties as assigned.
Core Proficiencies
  • Shipping/Receiving; Warehouse & Material Handling Experience
  • Loading and Unloading Vehicles
  • Tape Measure Reading; Shop Math
  • Forklift Licensed; Overhead Crane
  • Industrial & Commercial Painting; Grinding
  • Surface Finishing; Tool Knowledge
Grow With Us

This is a hands-on role where you’ll sharpen your material handling expertise, cross-train on overhead cranes and other machinery, and broaden your metals finishing skill set—while making a visible difference every day.
