Reports to: Vistabule Production Leadership

Location: Vistabule Teardrop Trailers, St Paul, Minnesota

The Opportunity

Vistabule Teardrop Trailers is more than a manufacturer, we are a purpose-driven lifestyle brand built on craftsmanship, innovation, and the spirit of adventure. Proudly recognized as a finalist in the 2025 “Coolest Things Made in Minnesota” contest, we are a family-owned company with 15 years of experience designing and manufacturing premium teardrop trailers that inspire exploration and connection.

As we enter an exciting new phase of growth, we are seeking a skilled and detail-oriented Assembly Technician to join our production team. In this role, you will help transform wood, aluminum, steel, and composite materials into thoughtfully engineered trailers that our customers will rely on for years of travel and adventure.

Purpose

Build, assemble, test, and inspect components of the trailer alongside the assembly team, contributing the precision and care that define every Vistabule teardrop trailer.

Key Responsibilities

  • Component Assembly: Position, align, and fasten parts and subassemblies precisely, working with wood, aluminum, steel, and composites using a variety of hand and power tools.
  • Quality and Inspection: Perform key tests and inspections during the build to ensure each trailer meets our standards before it moves to the next stage.
  • Production Pace: Maintain an appropriate pace to reach daily goals and milestones while keeping quality first.
  • Tool Proficiency: Operate drills, table saws, chop saws, routers, sanders, and other hand and power tools safely and accurately.
  • Workstation Standards: Maintain a clean, organized, and safe work area that supports the team’s efficiency and craftsmanship.
  • Team Collaboration: Communicate clearly with teammates and leadership to ensure expected results and a smooth build process.

Qualifications

Required

  • High school diploma or GED equivalent.
  • 1–2 years of prior experience in manufacturing, production, woodworking, or a similar skilled trade.
  • Basic tool knowledge: drill, table saw, chop saw, router, sander.
  • Strong attention to detail with high personal standards for quality.
  • Ability to work well independently and as part of a small team.
  • Clear, respectful communication with teammates and leadership.
  • Genuine interest in advancing within a craft production environment.
  • Must be able to lift and carry approximately 50 lbs.

Nice to have: 

  • Experience operating CNC machinery or interest in learning.
  • Familiarity with composite materials or precision assembly work.

Qualified applicants who meet some, but not all, of the job requirements are encouraged to apply.

Schedule

Vistabule currently operates on a four-day work week (32 hours, four 8-hour days), and the Assembly Technician role follows that schedule. We love this rhythm and consider it one of the meaningful perks of working here today. We want to be transparent that the four-day work week is our current model, not a permanent guarantee, and our schedule may evolve as the business grows.

Physical Requirements

This is a hands-on role in a light manufacturing environment. The work regularly involves bending, kneeling, and reaching to assemble components in and around trailer interiors and at varied heights.

Compensation & Benefits

  • Pay: $21.00 – $23.00 per hour
  • Paid holidays
  • Paid time off (PTO)
  • Health insurance
