Known for our commitment to quality, innovation, and our people, we fabricate high-performance glass products used in homes, businesses, and architectural projects across the U.S. and Canada.


Our Wilsonville facility is growing, and we’re currently looking for a dependable Machine Operator to support and help lead production on our Insulating Glass (IG) Line – Swing Shift. This is not a supervisory role, but we’re looking for someone who can take initiative, set the pace, and help drive results alongside the team.


If you have a mechanical mindset, production experience, and a strong work ethic, this could be a great opportunity to grow your skills in a supportive and fast-paced environment.

  • Pay starts at $22/hour and up to $25+ depending on experience
  • Swing Shift Differential: $1.50/hour (not included in base pay)

This is a mid-level role ideal for someone with leadership potential who can help coordinate workflow, support teammates, and lead by example—without directly managing people.

What You Bring

  • 1–3 years of production or manufacturing experience
  • Comfortable with hand tools and reading a tape measure
  • Mechanically inclined and detail-oriented
  • Dependable, punctual, and team-focused
  • Able to lift 50+ lbs. and work on your feet throughout the shift
  • Strong communication and problem-solving skills

Bonus if you:

  • Have experience with automated equipment or glass fabrication

 Working Conditions

  • Fast-paced production floor with moving equipment and glass
  • PPE provided (gloves, safety glasses, cut-resistant gear)
  • Physical work: lifting, bending, standing for long periods
