Cross-Functional Press Brake and Metal Finishing Operator

Express Saint Louis
Fenton, MO Full Time
POSTED ON 10/18/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 2/15/2027

Build more than parts—build industrial printing machinery

Join a manufacturing team creating industrial printing equipment used in envelope and commercial printing. This role is intentionally hands-on and multi-process; you won’t be limited to a single machine. Expect to move fluidly across forming, finishing, oven processing, and assembly to support custom builds and production timelines.

Your impact, by workstream

  • Forming: Operate press brakes and other metal fabrication equipment to shape components to spec.
  • Finishing: Grind, deburr, and prep parts using hand and power tools for clean, accurate results.
  • Thermal Processing: Load, unload, and monitor parts through an industrial oven with attention to timing and quality.
  • Assembly & Build: Assist in fabricating and assembling industrial printing machinery.
  • Quality & Documentation: Read and follow work instructions; interpret measurements and production specifications; inspect finished parts for accuracy.
  • Flex & Flow: Move between different machines and production areas as needs change; perform material handling and general shop duties.
  • Safety & Upkeep: Maintain a clean, organized, and safe work area.
  • Team Execution: Collaborate with the production team to complete custom equipment and meet deadlines.

Preferred background

  • Experience in manufacturing or operating machines.
  • Press brake experience is a plus.
  • Grinding, deburring, or metal finishing experience.
  • Metal fabrication exposure with comfort using hand tools, power tools, and measuring equipment.
  • CNC or manual machining experience is a plus.
  • Forklift or overhead crane experience is a plus.
  • Mechanically inclined; willing to learn multiple processes.

If you like variety, precision, and contributing across the shop, this role gives you room to grow skills while helping deliver high-quality industrial print systems.
