Job Description
Cal Gaskets — Northern California
About Us
Cal Gaskets is a specialized commercial refrigeration company serving Northern California from Fresno to Redding, including the greater San Francisco Bay Area. We work with restaurant chains, fast food operators, grocery chains, and warehouse distributors — keeping their refrigeration units sealed, their compressors running, and their food safe.
We're a small, close-knit team of about 10 people. We do one thing and we do it well: gaskets and strip curtains. As we grow, we're looking for dependable people who take pride in their work and want to build something with us.
The Role
We're hiring a Gasket Technician — someone we call a Gasketeer — to join our field and manufacturing team. You'll split your time between hands-on installation work at customer sites and production work at our facility. This is a physical, detail-oriented role that suits someone who's handy, self-motivated, and reliable.
What You'll Do
In the Field
- Install commercial refrigeration gaskets for walk-in coolers, doors, and drawers
- Install strip curtains, hinges, handles, and related hardware
- Troubleshoot issues and resolve customer concerns on-site
- Represent Cal Gaskets professionally with every customer interaction
In the Shop
- Measure and cut gasket materials to specification
- Stuff, clip and prep Gaskets
- Maintain an organized, safe workspace
Schedule
- Training period: Hands-on Training 2-weeks
- Typical shift: 6:00 am – 3:00 pm
- Early call times possible: As early as 4:00 am on some days
- Schedule expands as training progresses
Compensation
- $18 – $25 per hour, based on experience
What We Provide
- Full training — no prior gasket experience required
- All tools needed for the job
What We're Looking For
Skills
- Comfortable with basic mechanics and hand tools
- Able to operate a power drill
- Strong attention to detail
- Clear, professional communication
- Able to follow multi-step instructions accurately
Requirements
- Punctual and reliable — every shift, every time
- Clean driving record
- Self-motivated with a strong work ethic
- Able to keep company vehicles properly stocked and maintained
- Committed to a safe work environment and prompt to report any safety concerns to management
- Must have (or be willing to obtain) all safety items required for the job — all provided by the company
Why Cal Gaskets
We're a niche company in a trade that most people don't know exists — and that's exactly what makes it a solid opportunity. There's consistent demand, repeat customers, and real room to grow with us. If you show up, do the work well, and treat customers right, you'll have a place here for as long as you want it.
