About The Position

We are looking for a dependable, detail-oriented Extruder Assistant to join our manufacturing team. This is an excellent entry-level opportunity for someone looking to start a career in manufacturing while developing valuable technical skills in a hands-on production environment.

Ability to lift, push, and pull up to 50 lbs.
Ability to stand, walk, bend, and climb for extended periods.
