Chop Gun Operator
Build the Strength Behind Every Spa.
Before someone relaxes in a MasterSpas hot tub…
Before a family gathers around it…
Before it ever leaves our factory…
Someone has to build the strength that lasts for years.
That's where the Chop Gun Operator comes in.
This isn't just spraying fiberglass and resin. It's creating the foundation of every spa we build. Every layer you apply helps determine the strength, durability, and quality that thousands of customers will rely on for years to come.
If you enjoy hands-on work, take pride in doing things the right way, and believe quality matters even when no one sees it, this could be the role for you.
