About The Position

A day in the life at Argon Industries You clock in for 2nd shift (Monday–Thursday, 1:30 PM–12:00 AM) and settle into a pace that rewards precision.

What your day looks like Early in the shift: You review the Job Traveler, customer specs, and any deviations for the work queued up.
