This opportunity is ideal for mechanically inclined candidates who thrive on working with their hands, enjoy a dynamic work environment, and appreciate the satisfaction of seeing finished products come together. By joining our team as an Assembly Technician, you will be responsible for assembling items such as grills, lawn mowers, patio furniture, bikes, outdoor power equipment, and more, directly inside major retail stores.
As an Assembly Technician, you will work with one of the largest in-store assembly companies in the United States, focusing on high-demand merchandise that customers count on for home and outdoor use. Your role will not only contribute to customer satisfaction but also ensure that products are assembled safely and accurately according to manufacturer specifications. This position is well-suited for individuals who take pride in their craft and are driven to deliver quality results in a timely manner.
Technicians are offered a self-scheduling system, providing flexibility and control over your workdays and hours.

This position offers the unique benefit of working close to home, with daily variety and opportunities to assemble different types of products in a fast-paced retail environment.
To succeed as an Assembly Technician, you must be able to repeatedly lift at least 50 pounds and comfortably handle the assembly of large items. Reliable personal transportation and a smartphone with a working camera are required, as you will use company applications for invoicing, scanning, and documenting completed work. You must also supply your own set of tools, including an 18V cordless impact driver or drill, deep metric sockets, Allen/hex bit set, cutting pliers, multiple screwdrivers, adjustable wrench, box cutter or utility knife, and a rubber mallet.
