Job Title: Brake Operator

Department: Brake

Reports To: Brake Department Lead

LOOKING FOR AN EXPERIENCED PRESS BRAKE OPERATOR - MIN. 4 YEARS EXPERIENCE

ROLE:

You will operate one of our 12 Amada press brakes forming precision sheet metal parts. The range of materials, thicknesses, finishes, and complexity is vast. For parts the shop has made before, you’ll have setup sheets that provide you direction. For new parts, on your own or with your lead and/or Engineering, you’ll have to figure out the right tooling and best way to form them up. Apart from your primary responsibility of making good parts on-time, you’ll work with your department (your team) on achieving companywide goals and improving the department in all ways possible.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

  • Safely, efficiently, and effectively operate an Amada press brake.
  • Follow setup sheets and help revise old ones or generate new ones when needed.
  • Produce good parts on-time. You are responsible for the quality of every part you produce.
  • Interact with our ERP system correctly (punching in and out of jobs)
  • As with all that work at Inland, help your fellow departments when they get in trouble.

QUALIFICATIONS AND SKILLS REQUIRED:

  • 5 years’ experience as a press brake operator.
  • Know how to safely setup and operate an Amada press brake.
  • Must be able to read and follow blueprints pertaining to press brake operation.
  • Must be able to properly use relevant inspection equipment such as calipers and height gages.
  • Physical strength to repeatedly lift and carry 25 lbs.

ORGANIZATION’S VALUES AND CULTURE:

We are a $40MM job shop/contract manufacturer established in 1964 that serves the ruthless and uncompromising high-tech Bay Area customer by providing everything they want when they want it. Manufacturing parts in one of the most expensive locations in the country for some of the most demanding customers in existence is not easy. Boring widget shop we are not. We need good, dedicated, engaged team members to keep the dream alive. Apply if that sounds like you.
