What are the responsibilities and job description for the Production Team Member position at AFI Logistics?
Production Team Member
Part-Time / Full-Time | Portland, OR | Starting at $18-20/hr
Build Things. Solve Problems. Leave It Better Than You Found It.
Most people think warehouse work is about moving boxes.
We don't.
At AFI, our team keeps dozens of businesses moving. We receive freight from around the world, fulfill thousands of customer orders, build custom product bundles, assemble products, organize inventory, solve logistics problems, and constantly look for better ways to do the work.
We're looking for someone who enjoys building order from chaos.
Someone who notices when something could work better.
Someone who takes pride in doing things well, even when nobody is watching.
If that sounds like you, keep reading.
What You'll Be Doing
No two days at AFI are exactly alike.
On any given day you might:
- Receive and organize incoming freight
- Pick, pack, and ship e-commerce orders
- Build pallets for wholesale customers
- Perform light assembly and production work
- Label or repackage products
- Conduct inventory counts
- Operate pallet jacks, forklifts, freight elevators, and other warehouse equipment (we'll train you)
- Drive company vehicles for local pickups and deliveries
- Help improve the systems we use every day
Some work is physical.
Some work requires precision.
All of it matters.
The products we ship represent our customers' businesses, and we take that responsibility seriously.
What We're Looking For
Experience in warehousing, fulfillment, manufacturing, or logistics could be helpful.
It isn't required.
We've learned that these qualities matter far more:
- You genuinely enjoy working hard.
- You notice details that other people miss.
- You like things to be organized.
- You adapt well when plans change.
- You communicate honestly.
- You take ownership instead of making excuses.
- You enjoy learning new skills.
- You're comfortable lifting up to 50 pounds repeatedly throughout the day, with or without reasonable accommodation.
- You have a valid driver’s license and a driving record that meets our insurance requirements (for company-vehicle driving).
If you've ever reorganized a workspace simply because it made more sense…
If you've ever found yourself thinking, "There's got to be a better way to do this..."
You'll probably fit in well here.
What You'll Find Here
You'll work with some of the most interesting food, beverage, and consumer brands in the Pacific Northwest.
You'll be trusted with real responsibility.
You'll have the freedom to suggest improvements.
You'll learn warehouse operations, fulfillment, inventory management, production, logistics, and problem solving.
You'll never be treated like "just another warehouse employee."
Because that's not how we think about the people who build this company.
