• Perform routine quality checks on finished goods to ensure no damaged or incorrect product reaches the customer.
• Participate in general plant clean-ups to maintain a clean, organized, and trip-free work zone.

Key Responsibilities

• Utilize scanning technology to track assigned inventory items, ensuring real-time accuracy of warehouse stock levels.
• Accurately pick customer releases and stage products for transport according to specific load maps and customer requirements.
• Verify product labeling for 100% accuracy and generate both manual and computer-based Bills of Lading (BOL) to ensure legal and logistical compliance.
• Protect our products and transit safety by applying protective sheets, pads, and banding to unit loads per strict engineering specifications.
• Maintain detailed logs regarding items loaded/unloaded, timestamps, and equipment inspections to ensure peak operational efficiency.

Qualifications

• Ability to repetitively lift up to 50 lbs and remain seated/operable on a forklift for extended periods (8+ hours).
• Basic computer literacy for generating shipping documents and performing inventory scans.

• Prior manufacturing or warehouse experience is a plus, but we are willing to train candidates with the right mechanical aptitude and work ethic.
