About BDC Brands

Black Diamond Coatings (BDC Brands) is a veteran- and family-owned U.S. manufacturer. We make premium, environmentally friendly sealers, cleaners, and polymeric sand under our DOMINATOR®, AQUA-X®, and OBSESS® brands. You’ll find our products at The Home Depot, Lowe’s, Walmart, and Amazon, and every one is made right here in Florida.

We’re growing fast. Our goal is to be about 10x bigger in the next few years. That means Team Lead, Coordinator, and Supervisor roles will open up, and we prefer to fill them from within. We’re not hiring bodies for a line; we’re recruiting the best people we can find and giving them a clear path to grow quickly.

What You’ll Do

  • Run filling, capping, labeling, and packaging lines for sealers, cleaners, and polymeric sand
  • Weigh, measure, and add raw materials to batches by following batch tickets exactly (Level II+)
  • Palletize, wrap, and stage finished goods; move materials safely (forklift at Level II+)
  • Do in-process quality checks on fill weights, labels, lot codes, and seals, and flag problems right away
  • Fill out production records accurately (we’re are ISO 9001 certified)
  • Follow all safety rules and wear PPE (safety glasses, gloves, steel-toe boots)
  • Keep your area clean and organized (5S) and help with changeovers and cleanup

Who Thrives Here

  • Reliable doers — you show up on time, every time, and finish what you start
  • Safety-minded — you don’t take shortcuts, and you speak up when something’s wrong
  • Team players — you help the whole team hit its goal, not just your own station
  • Improvers — you notice a better way and suggest it
  • Drama-free — you’re respectful and direct, and you focus on the work
