Position Overview
Join our team as a Mechanical Assembler, where you’ll play a vital role in assembling airport runway signs and lights for essential businesses. This is not an assembly line role—you’ll work on a variety of custom products in a dynamic job shop setting.

  • Conduct inspections for accuracy and showroom-quality finish

  • Work collaboratively and cross-train within a versatile, fast-paced department

  • Contribute to solutions that enhance team performance

What We’re Looking For

  • 2–3 years’ experience in mechanical assembly within a manufacturing environment

  • Ability to read and interpret blueprints or schematics

  • Proficiency using power, air, and hand tools (including riveting tools)

  • Experience applying silicone, butyl sealants, and gaskets

  • Ability to lift 10–75 lbs consistently; comfortable with standing, bending, reaching, squatting, pulling, and pushing throughout the shift

  • High attention to detail and excellent organizational skills

  • Pallet jack experience required; forklift experience a plus

  • Strong computer skills (Word, Excel, business systems)

  • Familiarity with ISO standards a plus

  • Dependable, accountable, and team-oriented with a proactive approach to tasks
