  • Dye-sublimation printers (including nozzle checks and ink management)
  • Laser cutting/etching machines
  • Heat press equipment
  • Assist in emblem production during high-volume periods

Quality Control

  • Inspect outputs for defects, inaccuracies, or inconsistencies
  • Ensure only production-ready, defect-free items move to application or shipping
  • Maintain internal quality standards, no shortcuts

Inventory Awareness

  • Monitor raw material usage (fabrics, films, inks, etc.)
  • Notify management proactively for reordering and material prep

Required Skills & Competencies

  • Adobe Illustrator (Advanced) – non-negotiable (file setup, pathing, vector cleanup, production layouts)
  • Strong understanding of prepress and production workflows
  • High attention to detail and error detection
  • Solid computer literacy and ability to learn internal systems quickly
  • Clear and direct communication skills
  • Strong organization and time management
  • Ability to handle repetitive tasks without losing accuracy

Job Type: Full-time

Pay: $22.00-$26.00 per hour
