This position would be ideal for those who are seeking supplemental income, temporary work, and semi-retired individuals. (If you are looking for more hours or career advancement, this will not be a good fit for you.)

Starting Pay: $17 hr

GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

This candidate must have/be:

  • 18 years of age or older
  • Completed high school or equivalency
  • Eligible to work in the United States
  • The ability to speak and understand English
  • An understanding of basic math, basic fractions, decimals, and weights
  • Ideally, would live in the Columbus area with reliable transportation

It is imperative that this individual be able to stand or sit for long periods of time, use hands to feel, handle, push, pull, and carry objects that may be heavy in weight or are very small and fragile. They will also be required to operate mechanical equipment (such as manual lathes, drill presses, grinders, and hand tools) with hands, arms, and feet, and do so repetitively. They must also be able to frequently do basic math or use a calculator to work with decimals and fractions for very small measurements.

CORE RESPONSIBILITIES

We are currently looking for an individual whose focus long-term will be using a vintage-style turret lathe to drill holes as small as .010” in our steel and brass parts, which can be seen on our website pictures. Each part is made to order, and generally requires working with an inspector who checks the holes for size and shape before allowing you to move on to the next part. It requires good communication, teamwork, and being able to troubleshoot why one hole might pass while the next one does not (based on your speed, pressure, drill bit wear, etc.)

You may be asked to do other tasks and run other machines while you become familiar with our operations and products. We would rather train the right person who has “the touch” naturally than expect someone to know exactly how to do this, as it is becoming a lost art in the age of automation.

Other responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

  • Using hands and hand tools for long periods of time filing, tying, twisting, brushing, etc.
  • Willingness to switch tasks when asked, or work on multiple tasks through a workday.
  • Keeping a clean work area that others can also use.
  • Occasionally getting very dirty (oil, grease, dust, etc.)
  • Some outdoor lawn and cleanup during mowing season

Special Perks:

  • Semi-flexible schedule
  • 30 minute lunch
  • Paid breaks/free coffee
  • Relaxed personal dress (jeans, t-shirt, etc.) or a uniform can be provided
  • No work on weekends or major holidays
  • No overtime
  • Freely walk, sit, or stand to relieve the fatigue of being in the same position.
  • Paid time off after 1 year
  • Unpaid time off for special circumstances (life happens!)

(We do not currently offer full-time benefits.)

Job Type: Part-time

Pay: $17.00 per hour

Expected hours: 24.5 per week
