Job Description

We specialize in premium, custom-fit car mats designed for precision-fit and extreme coverage, ensuring your vehicle’s interior stays protected in style. Our mats combine premium aesthetics with effortless maintenance. With support for a wide range of car models, TuxMat delivers the perfect blend of function and luxury for every drive. As we continue to expand our reach, we are seeking a talented Sewing Operator to join our team and drive our operations to new heights. Join us in our mission to become the leading car accessory brand in North America.

TuxMat is building the next generation of high-performance automotive floor mats with a focus on in-house, scalable manufacturing. As we transition into pilot production, we are assembling a team of agile, hands-on contributors to help shape our production processes from the ground up.

We are seeking a skilled Sewing Operator to assist in the development and early-stage implementation of our edge banding and finishing process. This is not a conventional production role—this is an opportunity to help build the process itself.

You will work closely with engineers, designers, and production leads to:

• Establish edge-binding and sewing standards for complex 3D thermoformed mats.
• Test and validate industrial sewing equipment and edge-banding tools.
• Provide feedback on ergonomics, tooling, material compatibility, and workflow.
• Help define equipment and staffing needs for scale-up.
  

Key Responsibilities:

• Operate industrial sewing machines to edge-bind thermoformed mat prototypes.
• Evaluate material handling, feeding, and stitching of various edge-banding solutions.
• Assist with the setup, adjustment, and maintenance of edge-binding stations.
• Collaborate with R&D and process engineers to test different equipment configurations.
• Suggest improvements in tooling, fixtures, and operator workflows.
• Help determine equipment and layout needs for future high-volume production.
• Maintain quality, consistency, and a high level of craftsmanship in all test runs

Required:

• 2+ years of hands-on experience with industrial or upholstery sewing.
• Experience working with edge banding, foam, synthetic leather, or heavy materials.
• Excellent manual dexterity and attention to detail.
• Comfortable working in a prototyping, test-focused environment.
• Ability to provide constructive feedback and collaborate with technical teams.

Commitment: Flexible hours, part-time, on-call or by scheduled need (10–25 hrs/week expected) with potential for extension or transition to full-time Lead Sewing Operator role.
