Schedule: Friday-Saturday-Sundays

We are hiring Weekend Manufacturing Associates to support a stable, high‑demand production facility in Gray, ME. This role focuses on small‑part and electronic bench‑style assembly in a clean, organized light‑manufacturing environment.

This weekend shift is a great option if you’re balancing school, other responsibilities, another job – or if you simply prefer working a set weekend schedule with consistent expectations and the opportunity for long‑term placement.

The facility is centrally located in southern Maine, offering an easy commute from Portland, Freeport, Windham, Mechanic Falls, Auburn, and surrounding areas.

What the Work Looks Like

Work assignments vary by department, but weekend roles typically involve hands‑on assembly at a workstation or bench, including:

  • Assembling small parts or electronic components using written instructions, diagrams, or work orders
  • Using hand tools or small power tools to complete assemblies
  • Performing light soldering
  • Inspecting finished pieces to ensure they meet quality and accuracy standards
  • Preparing completed products for packaging, storage, or shipment
  • Recording basic production or quality data using simple computer systems

This is detail‑focused, repetitive work that rewards accuracy, consistency, and focus.

This Weekend Role Is a Good Fit If You:

  • Have prior manufacturing, assembly, or production experience
  • Are comfortable following step‑by‑step written and verbal instructions
  • Enjoy bench‑style or station‑based work
  • Pay close attention to detail and take pride in doing things correctly
  • Are dependable, show up consistently, work well with a team and independently
  • Want a reliable weekend schedule while keeping weekdays free

Requirements

  • Previous assembly or manufacturing experience (required)
  • Basic computer skills (entering data, reading electronic work orders)
  • Ability to remain focused on repetitive tasks for extended periods
  • Post‑offer background check required

Candidates who stand out are able to demonstrate a strong attendance history and clearly communicate their prior assembly, electronic, or mechanical experience.

Important to Know

This role is not physically intense and does not involve industrial machine operation, but it does require consistency, attention to detail, and comfort performing repetitive tasks throughout the day.

If you’re looking for a weekend job where you know what to expect every shift and prefer a clean, focused, and professional environment, this role may be a great fit.

What the Hiring Process Looks Like

Qualified candidates typically move through the process within about two weeks, which includes:

  • Recruiter screening
  • Onsite client interview
  • Manual dexterity test to ensure job readiness
  • Background check

Interested?
