Job description

As a Manufacturing Operator - Sewing, you will produce fabric pouches and bags used to organize, carry, and store hand tools.

  • Inspect throughout the process to verify that all finished goods meet specifications and are free of defects
  • Adjust machine settings, fixtures, and tooling to optimize output and performance
  • Keep the work area neat and orderly
  • Monitor and address the machine's day-to-day performance and partner with our Manufacturing Maintenance Specialist to handle maintenance or issues

Your first 30 days

  • Leadership: We need great leaders to guide decisions and help our employees grow. If, in addition to being a process expert with high personal standards, you also care deeply about the success of our team, you could be an effective leader of those around you.

What it's like in Tekton's Manufacturing Center
  • Surroundings: You will be working in a bright, clean Manufacturing Center around people, manufacturing machinery, and material handling equipment like pickers and forklifts.
  • Noise level: Noise levels vary depending on which machines are operating; however, it is typically not loud enough where hearing protection is required.
  • Safety: Safety is important to us, and we take it seriously. We provide protective gear such as vests, gloves, eye protection, and floor mats.
  • Temperature: Our Manufacturing Center has heating and air conditioning. Temperatures can vary between 60 - 80°F depending on the season.
  • Dress code: Clothes should be comfortable to twist, lift, and bend in. Closed-toe shoes are required.
