From climate-friendly technologies to sustainable manufacturing, your contributions will help create products that matter.

You won’t just be assembling components — you’ll be ensuring every product meets the highest standards of quality and performance. You’ll play a vital role in delivering what our customers count on: reliability, precision, and innovation built into every solution.

If you’re hands-on, safety-conscious, and want to grow your skills in a fast-moving environment where your work has real impact, this could be your next step. Join us and become part of a global company that invests in your development.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Assemble components from start to finish, including set-up, testing, and quality checks, ensuring every product meets Danfoss’ high standards.
• Operate forklifts, tuggers, and hand trucks to safely move materials throughout the plant and keep production running smoothly.
• Refill and deliver Kanban bins, handle various part numbers, and perform routine machine cleaning to maintain an efficient workflow.
• Identify and report part shortages, inspect assemblies for quality, and support continuous improvement in the production process.
• Rotate across production areas and take on cross-functional tasks — including material handling — to meet evolving customer and business needs.

What We're Looking For

• High school diploma or GED, or at least 3 months of experience with Danfoss products.
• At least 18 years old and eligible to work in the U.S.
• Valid Class C (or higher) driver’s license for potential backup truck driving responsibilities.
• Comfortable reading hydraulic and electrical schematics; familiarity with Microsoft Office, PLCs, and test stands.
• Basic knowledge of quality tools like PPAP, 8D, PFMEA, and capability studies.
• Strong English communication skills, both written and verbal, to follow safety procedures and work instructions.

What You'll Get from Us

• We promote from within and support your learning with mentoring, training, and access to global opportunities.
• You’ll have flexibility, autonomy, and support to do your best work while maintaining a healthy work-life balance. Your well-being matters to us.
• We strive to create an inclusive work environment where people of all backgrounds are respected, and valued for who they are.
• You’ll receive benefits like paid vacation, personal insurance, and more. These vary by country and contract, but they’re worth asking about—we think they’re pretty great.
