The Role

This is a day shift, full-time, floor-based assembly position. You'll build and wire large electrical enclosures, working from engineering drawings and wiring diagrams to put together finished units that meet precise quality standards. You'll use hand tools, power tools, and torque-controlled tools, and report to the Large Assembly Supervisor, with support from Quality, Engineering, and experienced assemblers throughout your shift. If you've built or wired products before and you're ready for larger, more complex builds, you'll find plenty to work with here.

What We Do

Post Glover Resistors has been manufacturing specialized electrical products for over 130 years. Our resistors keep critical infrastructure running: power grids, mass transit systems, data centers, and industrial facilities across North America. We've grown significantly in recent years, and the people on our production floor are a big part of why. If you want steady, hands-on work at a company that's been around for over 130 years and is still growing, this is a solid place to land.

What You'll Be Doing

• Build large resistor enclosures, mounting resistor sections, brackets, and hardware according to engineering drawings
• Cut, strip, and crimp wire, then route and secure it inside the enclosure following the wiring diagram

• Install terminal blocks, DIN rail, ground bars, switches, and indicator lights
• Inspect your own work throughout the build and complete a pre-shipment inspection checklist before each unit leaves
• Rework or repair units that don't meet spec when assigned
• Help train newer assemblers on large builds
• Complete production paperwork and time tracking accurately for each job
• Follow all safety procedures and wear required PPE at all times on the floor

What We're Looking For

• Prior assembly experience, or a similar background in wire prep, reading drawings, and production paperwork
• Ability to read and follow assembly drawings and wiring diagrams
• Experience with torque tools, large enclosures, or resistor assemblies is a plus, but not required
• Careful, detail-focused work habits
• Reliable attendance and a positive, team-first attitude
• Ability to stand and walk for most of your shift, lift up to 50 pounds (a coworker or lifting aid helps with heavy pieces), reach overhead, bend and squat, and wear safety glasses and steel-toe shoes

What's in It for You

• $0.50/hour increase after successfully completing your first 90 days
• Monday through Thursday, day shift, 6:00am to 4:30pm (10-hour days, giving you Fridays off with frequent Friday overtime available)
• Health, dental, vision, life, and disability coverage
• 401(k) retirement with 5% company match
• On-site fitness center
• Safety glasses provided
• Stable work at a company with 130 years in business and a growing order book
