What are the responsibilities and job description for the Part-Time Part Finisher (with growth potential) position at Decibel?
At Decibel, we design and build custom 3D-printed furniture, architectural elements, and interior design pieces — all made sustainably with cutting-edge robotic technology. We’re a small, design-focused team that values hands-on craftsmanship, autonomy, and ideas that don’t get lost in the corporate shuffle.
About the Role
We’re looking for a Part Finisher to help get our 3D-printed pieces ready for installation. If you enjoy working with your hands, love seeing raw parts transform into finished products, and want to be part of a creative and forward-thinking shop, this could be a great fit.
This role starts part-time (about 20 hours/week), with plenty of flexibility. As our workload grows, it can easily turn into a full-time position (40 hours/week) and even evolve into a lead role on our finishing team.
What You’ll Do
- Inspect and prep completed 3D-printed parts for delivery
- Trim brims, sand surfaces, and remove print blemishes
- Drill connecting holes, check alignment, and run dry assemblies
- Apply fire coatings and other surface finishes
- Pack and prepare parts for shipping (including crate building)
- Occasionally assist with on-site installations (local, U.S., and international)
*
Tools & Skills You’ll Need
- Comfortable using: belt sander, palm sander, drill, fine detail tools, painting equipment, and general hand tools
- Prior experience in woodworking, fabrication, or a related hands-on trade (we’ll train you on our specific processes, but we can’t train from scratch)
- Ability to lift up to 50 lbs, stand for long periods, and use a respirator when required
- Forklift experience is a plus (certification not required)
- A good eye for detail, craftsmanship, and problem solving
*
Perks of the Job
- Work with very cool machines (large-format robotic 3D printers!)
- Potential travel opportunities for installations in exciting locations
- Flexible schedule — as long as the work gets done right and on time
- Be part of a small, creative, and collaborative team where your work and ideas matter
