Portland, Oregon, United States Clayhaus Tile Full time

Clayhaus Tile, led by a husband and wife, is a project-based ceramic tile factory, located in the Central Eastside Industrial District in Portland, OR.

We are seeking Tile Extruding Department Operators to help us fabricate our custom hand-made tile for our largest endeavor yet in our company's 14 year history.

(University student housing project).


Paid training will be provided, which typically takes about 3 months, so we are looking for people who can commit for at least 1 year.

If you have other short term plans, this is not the job for you. Full time and Part time positions can be considered, but the shift is 8:00am-4:30pm. (no split shifts will be accommodated)

ABOUT THE POSITION:
The Tile Extruding Department is the heart of the operation; the process of tile making begins with you This position requires at least 2 crew members and consists of 3 major components: 1) working on/with an industrial sized tile extruder that feeds raw clay blocks into the machine via a conveyor belt, producing quality controlled flat clay ribbons and cut onto wooden boards that are stored on speed racks. 2) The Operators will then stamp out the specific tile shapes according to factory order paperwork with pneumatic arbor presses using a handle and foot pedal in a repetitive series.

(pictures attached) There is excess scrap clay that is produced in this process which is put back into the machine, mixed with fresh clay, so to have a closed loop system with no waste.

3) Extruding department Operators will extrude clay "blanks" that are specifically pressed out using another piece of industrial equipment, our 60 Ton Ram Press.

This machine is used when fabricating our dimensional and textured tile patterns that are not flat, but are raised in certain parts of the tile surface.

(Bas relief tile)


We are looking for Team Players interested in a job in the Trades who are self-motivated, accountable, responsible, and of good character.

Clayhaus is a small and mighty team and the job requires seamless collaboration in order to produce a tile product efficiently, accurately and to complete all customer job orders as quickly as possible.
