Print Production Assistant
No experience needed, and we do not pay an experience penalty for that. New assistants with no print experience start at $16 to $17; some hands-on experience starts higher, up to $19. At 90 days, once you can run DTF and the heat press unsupervised and have been signed off on one more machine, you move to $20 to $21. That step is written into the job, not promised verbally.
No print experience needed and none expected. You will learn the whole shop from the ground up: DTF, heat press, screen printing, embroidery and engraving. We teach on real jobs, we pay you while you learn, and there is a written raise at 90 days.
Where you work
On-site at our Dallas, TX location. This role is not remote.
What you will do
- Press and finish DTF transfers onto garments, and learn the film and cure side as you go
- Help set up and tear down screen printing jobs: screens, ink, reclaim, clean-up
- Hoop garments and tend embroidery machines once trained
- Weed vinyl, trim transfers, and prep blanks so a job is ready to run
- Check every finished piece against the proof and pull anything that is off
- Fold, bag, count, label and stage orders for pickup and shipping
- Keep the floor, the presses and the supply shelves clean and stocked
What we are looking for
- No print shop experience required. If you have some, great, say so
- Reliable and on time. On a production floor that matters more than anything on a resume
- Careful with detail. You can spot a crooked print or a colour that is off
- Able to stand and move around the floor for a full shift, and to lift and move boxes and rolls of material, with or without reasonable accommodation
- Willing to learn several machines rather than just one
- Bilingual English and Spanish is a plus, not a requirement
How we work
- On-site at our Dallas production floor
- You are trained on real jobs by a person, not left to watch videos
- Every machine has a written sign-off. You know exactly what you have to show to move up
- Small team, no layers. You talk to the owner every day
- Ask questions. Ruining a shirt because you did not ask costs more than asking
What we offer
- Paid training on every machine in the shop, taught properly and taught by us
- A written pay step at 90 days, not a vague promise
- A real path: assistant to operator to lead, and we promote from inside first
- Full-time hours with overtime available in busy season
- Employee pricing on anything we make
