## Description

**Full-time**

**$60,000**

**80% of health, dental, vision insurance**

**On-site: Mars Hill, NC**  

**What is this role and why does it exist?**

Ammortal is making more chambers every month, and the team running

production needs to spend its time on planning, logistics, and the work at their

desks. Right now too much of their day goes to physical tasks on the floor instead.

This role takes that work off their plates.  

It comes down to two things: moving materials around the building, and helping

Quality inspect what comes in the door. On top of that, you'll pitch in wherever the

operations team needs an extra set of hands. We need someone dependable who

pays attention to detail, takes direction well, and doesn't mind being on their feet

all day.  

You'll report to the Operations & Quality Manager. Day to day your work comes

from several people across the team, but when more than one of them needs you

at once, the Operations & Quality Manager sets your priorities. If you're ever

unsure what to work on first, that's who you ask.  

### Core Focus 1: Material Handling

-   Move packages and materials between locations as production needs them.
-   Keep the storage racks built and organized.
-   Run pallet jacks and forklifts. You'll need basic forklift skills coming in; we can get you certified on the job if you aren't already.
-   The two halves of this job feed each other. When you're the one moving material around, you're also the one most likely to spot a damaged box or a mislabeled part and flag it before it reaches the build.

### Core Focus 2: Quality Assistance (Incoming Inspection)

-   A few times a week, when shipments come in, you'll switch over to inspection.
-   The Quality Team decides what gets inspected and what the criteria are. You do the inspecting.
-   Inspect incoming goods the way the Quality Team asks, against the criteria they give you.
-   Sort what you inspect into good and bad, and keep the two clearly separated and labeled.
-   If anyone on the floor flags a part as questionable, take a look and bring it to Quality. You're the first set of eyes on flagged material, but the call on what to do with it is theirs.
-   Write down what you checked, what passed, and what got rejected, so Quality has a record to work from.

### Flexible Support Across the Operations Team

-   Outside those two areas, you'll back up the rest of the operations team whenever there's physical work to do:
-   Inventory: Cycle counts, restocking, organizing packages, and putting newly arrived materials away in the right rack.
-   Systems / Fulfillment: Help assemble the chamber welcome kits when our outside assembler is backed up or can't get to them.
-   Operations Technician support: Move chambers, help load them, build fastener kits, and wrap chambers for delivery.
-   Quality support: Pitch in on validations and any inspection or sorting work beyond incoming goods.

## Requirements

### Skills Required

Dependability — You show up and you follow through. People plan their day

around you handling the floor work.

Attention to Detail — Inspecting and sorting only help if you do them exactly

to spec. A small miss here lets a bad part into the build.

Takes Direction Well — Your tasks come from several different people. You do

what's asked and speak up when something isn't clear.

Physical Capability — You're comfortable lifting and moving materials all day.

Communication — When something's wrong or stuck, you say so right away

instead of sitting on it.

### What technical knowledge do you need to perform in your role?

**Required**

-   Pallet jack operation
-   Basic forklift skills

**Preferred**

-   Forklift certification (we can help you get it on the job)
-   Some experience with calipers, gauges, or other inspection tools, or the willingness to learn
-   Basic Google Sheets or Excel for counts and inspection records
-   Slack or similar messaging tools

### Qualifications (Must haves)

-   Experience in a warehouse, production, manufacturing, or similar hands-on setting
-   Able to be on-site every day and handle physical work: lifting, moving materials, and running material handling equipment

### Qualifications (Nice to haves)

-   Past incoming inspection or quality sorting work
-   Forklift certification
-   Inventory or cycle count experience
