M-Th, 7:00 AM - 5:30 PM Position Overview Join the Modus Advanced team as a Masker in our Coatings Department and play a critical role in the precision coating process. In this hands-on role, you'll be responsible for precisely masking components prior to the spray coating process, ensuring critical areas remain uncoated. Your precision work directly impacts the quality and functionality of components used in life-saving medical devices, mission-critical defense systems, and aerospace applications. At Modus Advanced, one day matters. Every masking application you complete ensures that coatings land exactly where they should—and nowhere else.
