• Mix and tint paint to PMS, Matthews, Akzo Nobel, and custom colors, and verify each color match before finishing
• Inspect parts for runs, orange peel, dust, and adhesion, and fix defects before parts move to assembly
• Operate and maintain the spray booth, including filters, airflow checks, and cleaning guns and equipment daily
• Track paint inventory and record coatings usage for VOC compliance
• Follow safety and hazardous waste procedures
• Help the fabrication team with assembly, vinyl, and shop tasks when the paint queue is clear

What You Bring

• 2+ years of spray painting experience (automotive, industrial, sign, or metal finishing)
• Hands-on experience with HVLP spray equipment and two-part (catalyzed) coatings
• Ability to color match by eye and by formula
• Ability to read work orders, measurements, and basic drawings
• Normal color vision
• Ability to pass a respirator medical evaluation and fit test
• High school diploma or GED
• Reliable attendance and the ability to meet production deadlines

Nice to Have

• Familiarity with Matthews Paint or Akzo Nobel coating systems
• Experience with computerized paint mixing or tinting systems
• OSHA 10, hazmat, or spray booth safety training
• Forklift certification (we'll train the right candidate)
• Valid driver's license

Pay & Benefits

• $24–$28 per hour, based on experience
• Performance-based bonuses
• Health, dental, and vision insurance
• 401(k) with company match
• Paid time off: vacation, sick days, and holidays
