Full Description

At the San Diego Padres, the Production Technician role anchors the behind-the-scenes magic that powers every home game at Petco Park. This position drives the creation of high-quality production assets, from custom signage and promotional displays to operational materials, ensuring seamless execution across baseball's sun-soaked season in America's Finest City. Daily operations center on operating specialized machinery to fabricate stadium banners, player stats boards, and fan giveaway items with precision under tight deadlines. The technician troubleshoots equipment during high-volume production runs, coordinates with design teams to refine prototypes for events like Opening Day or playoff pushes, and maintains inventory of vinyl cutters, large-format printers, and laminators. Expect hands-on involvement in pre-game setups, collaborating with stadium operations to deploy durable, weather-resistant graphics that withstand coastal winds. Candidates bring at least two years in production or manufacturing environments, ideally within sports or events sectors, paired with a high school diploma or equivalent. Proficiency in Adobe Illustrator and RIP software is essential, alongside familiarity with Roland or Mimaki printers. OSHA safety training preferred for handling industrial tools safely. Core competencies include meticulous attention to color calibration and material specs, rapid adaptation to game-day schedule shifts, and a proactive approach to quality control. Strong mechanical aptitude and visual design sensibility elevate performance in this fast-paced setting. The Padres foster a collaborative, high-energy culture rooted in championship pursuit, blending professional rigor with the thrill of MLB fandom. Work unfolds in Petco Park's production facility amid San Diego's coastal backdrop. Market-rate compensation complements comprehensive benefits, including health coverage, 401(k) matching, and generous PTO to recharge during the offseason. Join a legacy of excellence shaping Padres pride.
