About the Position

Our facility is looking for a Masking Technician to prepare parts for metal finishing by protecting specific areas according to job paperwork, customer requirements, and work instructions.

This is detailed, hands-on production work. You'll work with small parts and detailed areas of larger parts, so good hand-eye coordination, attention to detail, and the ability to work accurately with your hands are important to success in this position.

Previous masking experience is helpful, but it is not required. We are looking for someone who can learn the process, follow instructions carefully, produce consistent quality work, and maintain the pace needed in a production environment.

What You'll Do

• Read and follow job paperwork, work instructions, and established procedures.
• Prepare and mask specific areas of parts according to job requirements.
• Apply masking materials accurately to small and detailed areas.
• Work with small parts requiring good hand-eye coordination and finger dexterity.
• Check your work carefully to make sure the correct areas are protected.
• Follow instructions from the Lead regarding how each part needs to be masked.
• Maintain accuracy while keeping up with production requirements.
• Recognize when something doesn't look right and ask questions before proceeding.
• Handle parts carefully to prevent damage or quality issues.
• Keep your work area clean and organized.
• Follow all safety, quality, and production procedures.

What We're Looking For

• Strong hand-eye coordination.
• Excellent attention to detail.
• Ability to work comfortably with small parts and detailed areas.
• Good vision for detailed work.
• Ability to read, understand, and follow written instructions and job paperwork.
• Ability to follow established procedures and directions from the Lead.
• Ability to perform repetitive, hands-on work while maintaining accuracy.
• Ability to stay focused and maintain a steady production pace.
• Dependable attendance and punctuality.
• Willingness to learn new processes and techniques.
• A quality-focused approach—you check your work and ask questions rather than guessing.

Physical Requirements

• Ability to see small details on parts and paperwork.
• Ability to use hands and fingers for precise and repetitive tasks.
• Ability to handle small parts and masking materials throughout the shift.
• Ability to sit or stand as required by the work being performed.
• Ability to perform repetitive hand and arm movements.
• Ability to work in a production environment.

Benefits

Eligible employees have access to a competitive benefits package that includes:

• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
