About this role
Whelen Engineering is hiring Production Associates for its Charlestown facility to assemble emergency warning lights and sirens on a third shift schedule (Sunday–Thursday, 11 PM–7:30 AM). The role involves hands-on assembly work using basic tools and machinery, bagging finished products, and performing simple electrical testing. You'll work under close supervision in a structured environment where procedures are clearly defined, making this a solid entry point into manufacturing.
The position requires physical stamina—you'll be standing for the full shift and lifting up to 35 pounds regularly—along with the ability to read technical drawings, distinguish colors accurately, and follow written procedures. Basic computer literacy and fluency in English for workplace communication are expected. High school completion is preferred but not required. If you're reliable, detail-oriented, and comfortable with repetitive assembly work on a night schedule, this role offers straightforward, full-time employment with a established industrial manufacturer.
