Kansas City, MO | On-site | Full-time | Hourly

We’re looking for a hands-on Production Lead to run daily operations at our Kansas City manufacturing location. This role is ideal for someone who knows production inside and out — printing, cutting, finishing, and assembly.

You’ll be responsible for maintaining and running equipment, ensuring quality, managing materials, and organizing work so it's completed accurately and on schedule.

What You’ll Do

• Operate large-format printers, cutters, and finishing equipment


• Execute daily production schedules and priorities


• Perform quality checks on all finished work


• Maintain and troubleshoot production equipment


• Manage materials, inventory, and ordering


• Keep the shop clean, organized, and efficient


• Communicate job status and production needs clearly


• Support and guide 1–2 production team members

What We’re Looking For

• 5+ years of hands-on production or print experience


• Strong attention to detail and pride in quality work


• Experience maintaining production equipment


• Ability to manage multiple jobs and deadlines


• Comfortable working independently and taking ownership


• Clear communication and strong organizational skills

Why This Role

• High level of ownership and autonomy


• Small, focused production team


• Opportunity to shape and grow a local operation


• Work with a company that values craftsmanship, innovation, and collaboration
