Warehouse Operations Intern
Pittsburgh, PA | Weekdays | Hands-On Operations Role
Are you looking for a hands-on role where you can learn how a warehouse really runs, work alongside experienced leaders, and position yourself for a full-time leadership role down the road?
The Cary Company is hiring a Warehouse Operations Intern for our Pittsburgh facility. This role is ideal for a student, recent graduate, or early‑career professional who wants real-world experience and not a desk internship with the opportunity to grow in to a leader at this location.
This position is open year-round. While it’s a great fit for summer candidates, we’re flexible on timing for the right person.
Schedule
- Monday – Friday
- 6:00 AM – 2:30 PM

- Palletizing, staging, loading, and organizing product
- Using hand tools and power tools (drills, saws, etc.)
- Learning warehouse safety standards and operational best practices

Who This Is For
- Students currently enrolled in college, trade school, or technical programs
- Recent graduates looking to start their career in operations or logistics
- Individuals interested in growing into a leadership role over time
- People who take pride in showing up, working hard, and learning
What You Need

- Ability to lift up to 50 lbs and be on your feet for extended periods
