Work Environment This role is based in an open warehouse production area with approximately 15 people working in the department. The molding area has a distinct smell, similar to paint thinner and burning rubber, due to the materials and processes used. Work is performed on a four-person line, with each person rotating between spraying the molding machine with grease, placing aluminum bars into the mold, controlling the machine to insert rubber into the foam mold, and removing finished parts. The schedule is Monday through Friday, 6:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. The dress code is casual, including a t-shirt, long pants, and closed-toe shoes, with additional protective items available if needed.
