Build, Fix, and Work With Real Machines - We'll Train You

Vanguard Durst Digital Printing Systems builds large-format industrial printers used for signage, decor, packaging, and more. We're looking for hands‑on, mechanically inclined people who like working with tools, solving problems, and figuring out how things work.

You do NOT need printer experience - if you can turn a wrench, follow instructions, and want to learn, we can train you.

This role is a great fit for people from backgrounds like automotive, small engines, HVAC, manufacturing, maintenance, home improvement, handyman work, military mechanical roles, or anyone who enjoys building and fixing things.

What You’ll Do

• Assemble and test large industrial printers
• Use hand tools and basic power tools to build, adjust, and repair components
• Diagnose and fix mechanical or basic electrical issues (training provided)
• Troubleshoot problems during the build and testing process
• Help with inventory, shipping, and general shop support when needed
• Assist with customer installations or trade shows occasionally
• Take pride in building equipment that works right the first time

What We’re Looking For

You don’t need a long resume - we care more about aptitude and attitude.

You’ll be a great fit if you:

• Are mechanically inclined and comfortable using tools
• Have experience fixing cars, machines, equipment, home projects, or similar
• Like hands‑on work and problem‑solving
• Can follow instructions, learn new skills, and ask good questions
• Show up on time, work hard, and take pride in doing things right
• Want to build a long‑term skillset and career

Helpful backgrounds include (but aren’t required):

• Automotive, diesel, or motorcycle repair
• Industrial or manufacturing equipment
• HVAC, electrical, or maintenance work
• Handyman / contractor / home improvement
• Warehouse or technical assembly
• Military mechanical or technical roles
• Hardware or home improvement associates who know tools
• Hobbyists who build, repair, or tinker

No digital printing experience required - we will train the right person.

Physical & Work Requirements

• Comfortable standing, bending, kneeling, lifting, and working with equipment
• Able to lift up to 50 lbs
• English proficiency
• Willing to work in a hands‑on shop environment
• Occasional travel for installations or trade shows

Why This Job Is Worth It

• Work on large, high‑tech industrial machines - not boring, repetitive work
• Learn valuable mechanical and electrical skills that grow your career
• Stable, full‑time role with growth potential
• Training provided - attitude matters more than experience
• Work with a team that builds real products, not paperwork
• Competitive pay, benefits, and overtime opportunity

Pay & Benefits

$45,000-$65,000/year depending on experience

• Bonus opportunity
• Overtime available
• 401(k) with match
• Medical, dental, vision
• Life and disability insurance
