About the role
About Us:
Interstate Powder Coatings started in 2017. We run one of the biggest powder-coating booths in the Midwest. We coat everything from one small part to large factory runs. We belong to the Powder Coating Institute and focus on safety, neat work, and getting better every day. Join our friendly team that values skill, new ideas, and teamwork.

Equal Opportunity Employer:
Interstate Powder Coatings welcomes all applicants. We consider every person equally without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability, or veteran status.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
