Proactive Planning: Anticipate workflow needs, stage materials, and plan next steps to minimize machine downtime in a fast-paced environment.
Quality Control: Maintain a sharp attention to detail, inspecting finished parts to ensure they meet strict quality standards.

**What We Are Looking For (Requirements)

Experience: Proven experience operating and programming industrial laser cutting equipment.
Technical Skills: Strong ability to read blueprints, adjust cutting parameters, and navigate computer-based machine controls.
Proactive Mindset: Exceptional troubleshooting skills and the ability to anticipate production needs before they arise.
Physical Capabilities: Ability to lift heavy objects and safely operate a forklift (certification preferred, or willing to certify).
Communication: Excellent verbal and written communication skills to collaborate with the team and understand customer requirements.
Detail-Oriented: A strict eye for quality and precision—close enough is not good enough.

**What We Offer

Competitive Pay: $30.00 - $40.00 per hour based on experience.
Stability: Stable, full-time hours in a growing, state-of-the-art facility. Overtime opportunities available as well.

**To Apply

If you are a motivated professional who thrives in a fast-paced environment and meets the criteria above, we want to hear from you!
