A day in this role

You arrive ready to translate work orders and blueprints into precision-formed sheet metal parts. You review the setup for the next run, program the CNC, choose the correct tooling in coordination with Level II operators, and verify first-article quality with your trusted micrometers, calipers, and protractors. Throughout the shift, you keep production flowing—setting up, running, and inspecting—while maintaining exacting standards.

• Form sheet metal parts in accordance with work orders and engineering blueprints.
• Independently set up and run parts on NC/CNC press brakes.
• Program CNC parameters and select appropriate tooling in coordination with Level II operators.

Your background

• 5+ years of experience in sheet metal manufacturing and NC or CNC press brake operation.
• Comfort using trade-standard equipment and tools, including measuring devices (calipers, protractors, micrometers) and common hand tools (clamps, hammers, wrenches, screwdrivers, pliers).
• Physical ability to lift up to 30 lbs., hand-adjust parts as required, hold and measure components, and operate the ram pedal safely and consistently.
