Milling Operator, 1st Shift
About The Position
As our Batch Making Operator, you will be the baker for our coatings operation. Instead of flour and sugar, you’ll be blending chemicals and pigments with precision, following detailed “recipes” (formula tickets) to produce high-quality industrial coatings. Every batch you create needs to be consistent, safe, and ready to perform, just like a perfect cake that rises to the occasion. Every day you will handle crucial production tasks like operating pumps, valves, and a compactor with precision. You’ll keep things moving safely and efficiently, perform quality checks, and uphold a clean, organized workspace. Inventory tracking and documenting formula updates is a daily routine, along with working automated systems for raw materials and milling.
