Maintain and troubleshoot production equipment

Keep the shop clean, organized, and efficient

Communicate job status and production needs clearly

Support and guide 1–2 production team members

What We’re Looking For

5+ years of hands-on production or print experience

Strong attention to detail and pride in quality work

Experience maintaining production equipment

Ability to manage multiple jobs and deadlines

Comfortable working independently and taking ownership

Clear communication and strong organizational skills

Why This Role

High level of ownership and autonomy

Small, focused production team

Opportunity to shape and grow a local operation

Work with a company that values craftsmanship, innovation, and collaboration
