Part-Time Production Team Member
Be a part of making something awesome: ready-to-sew project kits that eliminate much of the tedious preparation so customers can get straight to making.
Since 2018, Sew What Box has built a specialized manufacturing operation around a unique craft product: ready-to-sew project kits. From designing and printing cotton fabric in-house to laser-cutting each project’s fabric pieces, our team gets to be a part of roughly 1,400 creative journeys each month through the sewing subscription boxes that we create, manufacture, and curate for our customers.
We're looking for a dependable, hands-on person who enjoys learning how things work and takes pride in producing something tangible. We're looking for someone who likes staying busy, cares about doing things correctly, can work independently, and doesn't give up when something takes a little persistence to figure out.
You'll learn one or more stages of our production process, based on your strengths and interests—from assembly, quality control, fabric folding, and packaging, to industrial textile printing and CO₂ laser cutting. No two weeks look exactly alike.
You don't need to know how to operate our equipment. We'll train you.
Responsibilities:
- Assist with fabric folding, kit assembly, and subscription box preparation.
- Stack, organize, and prepare fabric pieces efficiently while maintaining quality.
- Follow production schedules, meeting deadlines accurately.
- Maintain quality standards by noticing and removing flawed material.
- Ensure that production areas and machines are cleaned and organized.
- Learn general operation of heat press.
- Keep production moving by completing assigned work efficiently and communicating when materials, equipment, or processes need attention.
- Print fabrics with our industrial quilting cotton printers.
- Cut fabrics with our CO2 laser cutting machine while wearing applicable PPE.
- Any other related production duties as needed.
You'll learn several stages of our production process. Your day may include keeping production moving, preparing materials, assembling products, performing quality checks, and operating equipment.
Our team values detail-oriented team members. As such, please apply to this position by emailing your resume to taylar@sewwhatbox.com with the subject line: I am sew excited for this part-time production team member job.
