Shift: 3rd Shift / Afternoons (3:00 PM – 11:00 PM, Monday through Friday)

When your afternoon shift begins, you’ll review the production schedule and ready a mix of manual, semi-automatic, and automatic machines. You’ll run parts, listen for changes in pitch or vibration, and make quick adjustments to keep output steady.
