- Experience in quality, production, or a related manufacturing role
- Comfort using basic measuring tools and reading specs/prints
- Strong attention to detail and willingness to speak up when something is off
- Ability to work on-site in a fast-paced, hands-on environment
- Working knowledge of Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, Outlook)
Why Deckorators Buffalo:
- New, state-of-the-art flagship plant (you’re in near the ground floor)
- Chance to help shape our quality culture and processes from day one
