Build Something Bright with BL Lighting!
BL Lighting is looking for a hands-on, mechanically inclined, and detail-oriented Production Technician to join our team.
This is a full-time, in-person role for someone who enjoys building things with their hands, working with tools, assembling lighting products, wiring components, solving practical problems, and taking pride in clean, accurate work.
The primary focus of this role is production and assembly. However, because we are a small manufacturing company, the right person may also help with warehouse organization, inventory flow, packing, shipping/receiving, material handling, and basic logistics support.
The ideal candidate is someone who can do careful hands-on work, stay organized, communicate clearly, and help keep both the production area and warehouse running smoothly.
Key Responsibilities
- Assemble lighting components, parts, and electronic assemblies with accuracy and care
- Measure, cut, strip, crimp, wire, solder, and safely use tools to complete production work

- Follow work instructions, drawings, specifications, and production procedures
- Maintain clean, organized, and safe workstations
- Help organize parts, materials, tools, and finished goods in the warehouse
- Support packing, shipping/receiving, stock movement, and inventory organization as needed
- Help identify material shortages, damaged parts, mislabeled items, or workflow issues
- Support basic logistics coordination where appropriate, including helping ensure materials and finished products move smoothly through production and shipping
- Communicate clearly with the production team about issues, defects, missing materials, or process concerns
- Help identify small improvements to quality, workflow, organization, or efficiency

- Mechanical assembly
- Repair, troubleshooting, or rework
