Production Team Member - Manufacturing

Founders3D is a growing manufacturing company in the foundry industry. We make sand cores and molds that are used to produce metal parts all over the country. Our work is physical, detailed, and important — and we take real pride in it.

We are actively building a Lean Manufacturing Culture based on continuous improvement, ownership, and respect for people. That also means being honest: we’re still early in that journey. If you’re looking for a place that’s already polished and perfect, this probably isn’t it yet. If you want to help build something meaningful, keep reading.

What This Job Is Really Like

• You’ll work with your hands every day
• You’ll be part of a team that shows up, helps each other, and takes responsibility
• You’ll be asked to think — not just do
• You’ll see problems, help fix them, and make your job easier over time
• You’ll be part of improving systems, not just working inside broken ones

We believe in 2-Second Lean: small improvements, every day, by the people doing the work. Your ideas matter here.

What We’re Looking For

We don’t need “manufacturing experience” as much as we need the right mindset.

We’re looking for people who:

• Show up on time and do what they say they’ll do
• Like working with their hands and learning new skills
• Take pride in doing things the right way
• Are open to feedback and want to improve
• Can spot waste, mess, or inefficiency and speak up
• Want to grow with a company, not just punch a clock

If you’ve worked in manufacturing, construction, trades, or hands-on jobs — great.
If not, but you’re dependable and willing to learn — we’ll train you.

Our Values (We Actually Mean These)

• Integrity – Do the right thing even when no one is watching
• Pride – In our work, our shop, and ourselves
• Grit – This work isn’t easy, but it’s worth doing well
• No Gossip – We solve problems directly and respectfully
• Extreme Ownership – If we see a problem, we help fix it

What We Offer

• Full-time, steady work
• 4-day work week (10-hour shifts)
• Competitive pay based on role and growth
• Training and skill development
• A workplace where leadership listens and cares
• Real opportunity to grow as we grow

A Final Word

We’re building something better — a shop that runs clean, organized, and with less chaos over time. That takes effort, honesty, and the right people.

If you want:

• Easy work
• Zero change
• No accountability

This won’t be the place.

If you want:

• Purposeful work
• A team that has your back
• A company that’s serious about improving
• A chance to be part of something you helped build

We want to meet you!
