How do you excel in this position

The Lead Industrial Painter is a hands-on, highly technical role at the core of launching and sustaining our new blast and paint facility. This person will play a key role in commissioning new equipment, establishing operating procedures, and ensuring all coating work meets the highest standards of quality and durability.

You'll start by taking ownership of all surface preparation and industrial painting tasks-setting the bar for performance, safety, and attention to detail. Over time, this position will evolve into a formal leadership role, responsible for training, mentoring, and leading a team of painters as operations scale. Success in this position means combining deep coatings knowledge, shop-floor ownership, and leadership potential to build a high-performing, quality-driven paint department.

What are we looking for

  • High school diploma or equivalent required; technical certifications in industrial painting or coatings preferred
  • Minimum 5 years of hands-on experience in industrial painting, preferably in a fabrication or heavy manufacturing setting
  • Familiarity with surface preparation methods, spray systems, and blast equipment operations
  • Experience interpreting and applying specifications such as ISO 12944, SSPC/NACE/AMPP, or coating manufacturer guidelines
  • Ability to read and interpret fabrication drawings and technical coating instructions
  • Experience with startup or commissioning of new paint/blast equipment is a strong plus
  • Familiarity with quality practices, including DFT measurement, coating inspection, and documentation
  • AMPP/NACE coating certifications (e.g., C1-C3, Basic Coatings Inspector) are highly desirable
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to train, coach, and lead others over time
  • A sense of ownership for your work area, equipment, and process quality
  • Physically capable of lifting equipment/materials and working in a production environment
  • Knowledge of safety and environmental requirements in a paint/blast setting, including respiratory protection, confined space, and PPE.

Our fast-growing organization offers competitive pay, a positive work environment, and opportunities for career growth within the company.

Within the range, wage will be determined by several factors including candidate knowledge, job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.
