Print Production Specialist (Digital + Finishing Guru)

Location: AlphaGraphics Memphis
Job Type: Full-Time

About the Role


We’re looking for a highly skilled, detail-obsessed Print Production Specialist who thrives in a fast-paced environment and knows their way around both digital printing and production finishing.

This is not an entry-level role. This is for someone who can walk in, assess a job, run it, finish it, and deliver it like a pro—with minimal hand-holding and maximum pride.

If you’ve ever said, “I’ve got this” while a printer is beeping, a cutter is waiting, and a deadline is looming… we should talk.

What You’ll Do

  • Operate digital production equipment (high-speed copiers, wide format printers, etc.)
  • Set up, run, and monitor print jobs for accuracy and quality
  • Perform finishing tasks including:
    • Cutting, trimming, folding
    • Binding (coil, comb, perfect bind)
    • Laminating and mounting
    • Padding, scoring, perforating
  • Ensure color accuracy and consistency across jobs
  • Troubleshoot equipment issues and maintain production flow
  • Review files for print readiness (bleeds, margins, resolution, etc.)
  • Prioritize and manage multiple jobs under tight deadlines
  • Maintain a clean, organized production area
  • Collaborate with team members to meet client expectations

What You Bring to the Table

  • 2+ years experience as a Digital Print Production Operator
  • Strong hands-on experience with finishing equipment and processes
  • Solid understanding of print file setup (bleeds, crop marks, color modes)
  • Experience with wide format printing is a big plus
  • Ability to troubleshoot and problem-solve on the fly
  • Strong attention to detail (you notice when something is off… and fix it)
  • Ability to lift materials and stay active throughout the day
  • Team player with a positive, get-it-done attitude

Bonus Points If You

  • Have experience in a high-volume print shop environment
  • Are familiar with RIP software and workflow systems
  • Can jump between digital, wide format, and finishing without breaking stride
  • Take pride in producing work that makes customers say “WOW”

Why You’ll Love Working Here

  • Fast-paced, never boring environment
  • Work on a wide variety of projects (no two days are the same)
  • Be part of a team that values quality and craftsmanship
  • Opportunities to grow and expand your skill set
