  • Monitor machine performance and material flow throughout the slitting process

  • Take and upload job-related photos and maintain accurate production records

  • Perform operational audits and ensure compliance with company procedures

  • Maintain a clean, organized, and hazard-free work environment

  • Ensure measurement tools are verified daily and used accurately

  • Oversee proper disposal of scrap and waste materials

  • Ensure all work instructions are completed, signed off, and up to date

Requirements:

  • Proven experience operating slitting machines in a steel or metals environment

  • Strong understanding of steel properties and ability to identify material defects

  • Ability to read a tape measure and perform decimal-to-inch conversions accurately

  • Experience working with heavy machinery in a production setting

  • Strong computer skills for data entry, reporting, and system updates

  • Excellent attention to detail and commitment to producing quality work

  • Strong communication skills and ability to lead and support a team

  • Ability to work independently and make sound decisions in a fast-paced environment

What We Offer:

  • Starting pay at $18.00/hour, with potential for higher pay based on experience

  • Opportunity for permanent hire based on performance and attendance

  • Consistent full-time first shift schedule

  • Potential for overtime and long-term growth

  • Team-oriented environment focused on safety, quality, and performance
