Production Associate

Ready for something new? We’re growing our production team at States Industries.

We have several openings across our Eugene mill and are looking for dependable, hardworking people who want to learn, contribute, and be part of a team.

You don’t need to come in knowing everything about hardwood plywood manufacturing. We can teach you the job and help you build your skills. What we’re really looking for are people with great attitudes—people who show up ready to work, take pride in what they do, support the people around them, and are willing to go above and beyond to help the team succeed.

Manufacturing at States is fast-paced, hands-on work, and every position plays an important role in keeping our operation moving. Depending on your experience and interests, opportunities may be available in areas such as:

• Putty
• Dryers
• Spreaders
• Cleanup
• Banding
• Press
• Sanders
• Warehouse
• Prefinish

As you gain experience, there are opportunities to learn different areas of the mill, build new skills, and grow into other positions.

We’re looking for team members who:

• Bring a positive attitude and are willing to go above and beyond
• Show up ready to work and can be counted on by their team
• Take pride in doing the job well
• Put safety first
• Are willing to learn and take on new challenges
• Work well with others and step in to help when needed
• Have good manual dexterity
• Have basic reading, writing, and math skills
• Can regularly lift up to 50 pounds
• Can work a 40-hour schedule, with overtime as needed
• Are bilingual in English and Spanish — a big plus!

We want States to be a place where people can do good work and build something long-term.

That means supporting new employees while they learn, having leaders who are present and engaged, treating people with respect, and continuing to improve how we work. We expect people to work hard, hold themselves accountable, and look for ways to contribute beyond just doing the minimum.

If you’re someone who comes to work with a good attitude, takes pride in what you do, and wants to be part of a team where your contribution matters, we’d like to hear from you. Apply today and come see what States Industries is all about.
