This position involves:

• Lifting and carrying up to 45 pounds.

When production equipment is properly maintained and ready to run, our associates can build quality products, our customers receive their orders on time, and our business continues to grow.

At ESI, we value people who take ownership, look for ways to improve, and care about doing excellent work.

You'll have opportunities to:

• Learn new manufacturing equipment and technologies.
