REPORTS TO Manager of Finance and Administration
TYPE Part-time, hourly • about 25 hours per week

COMPENSATION $19–$22 per hour, based on experience

At Joseph Machine Company, we design, build, sell and service advanced automated manufacturing equipment. Since our first automated saw machine in 1986 — still in service today — we have grown into an industry-leading engineer of lineal and panel processing machinery and software for the fenestration, architectural metals, solar and industrial extrusion markets.
We are family-owned, 125+ people strong, and expanding. In 2026, The Manufacturers’ Association named us Manufacturer of the Year. Our customers come to us with hard problems — better throughput, fewer rejected parts, 95% material yield — and we engineer the machine that gets them there. We are looking for
people who care: people comfortable solving problems, thinking critically and working with their peers to do the best job possible, not just get the job done.
