The company prides itself on fostering a safe and respectful work environment where employees can thrive and grow professionally. Tessera offers competitive compensation and a broad range of benefits to its eligible full-time and part-time employees, underlining its dedication to employee well-being and satisfaction.

We are currently seeking a motivated and reliable Janitor to join our team for the swing shift at our Joint Base Lewis-McChord location. This is a full-time, non-exempt position with a work schedule from Monday to Friday, 4:00 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. The janitor role is vital in maintaining a clean, hygienic, and welcoming environment across various facilities on the base. The hourly wage for this position is $23.51, reflecting the importance we place on skilled and dedicated personnel.

As a swing shift Janitor at Tessera, you will be responsible for performing a variety of janitorial duties to ensure cleanliness and safety across office spaces, restrooms, hallways, entrances, and other high-traffic areas. Your responsibilities will include sweeping, mopping, dusting, trash collection, and restocking supplies. This role involves working closely with a teammate on an assigned route, requiring reliability, attention to detail, and the ability to follow established cross-contamination procedures to uphold health standards.

Understanding the demands of the position, the role requires physical stamina as it involves activities like lifting up to 50 pounds, walking, standing, kneeling, and precision in cleaning tasks over extended periods. The position demands a professional attitude with the ability to communicate courteously and work independently in a fast-paced environment. Tessera supports its employees by providing an inclusive environment with ongoing professional development, certifications, and training opportunities.

In return for your dedication, Tessera offers a robust benefits package that includes medical, dental, and vision insurance, a 401(k) retirement plan, life and short-term disability insurance, and health and welfare benefits at $5.09 per hour. The company also provides a flexible spending account for medical and dependent care, paid vacations after one year, paid sick leave, and 11 paid federal holidays. Additional perks include potential shared earning bonuses, tuition assistance and scholarships for dependents, Verizon wireless discounts, an employee assistance program (EAP), wellness programs, and eligibility for public service loan forgiveness for full-time employees.

Tessera is committed to equal opportunity employment and invites candidates who meet the requirements to apply and join their dedicated team. Note that this position requires a valid state driver’s license with the ability to maintain insurance coverage, and the successful applicant must obtain and maintain applicable security clearances and installation access. Compliance with the REAL ID Act is necessary for access to the federal military installation. This position is represented by the Service Employees International Union, 6 Property Services Northwest, and is not directly employed by Tessera. The application process requires submitting an AmeriCorps application online, underlining a structured and transparent hiring process.

Embark on a rewarding career path with Tessera where your work has a meaningful impact on keeping critical facilities pristine and safe for military personnel and civilians alike. Join a company that values integrity, dedication, and the diverse contributions of its workforce.
