Do you like math, creating designs, programming machines and working with others? Are you into heavy metals – stainless steel, low carbon, brass, bronze? Did you enjoy shop class? We invite you to check out Keystone Threaded Products – a 100 year old manufacturer considered an “Essential Business” throughout the Coronavirus Pandemic.

Keystone is looking for a detail-oriented, technically-minded CNC Programmer to add to our team.

Chances are you’ve come across something made by Keystone Threaded Products – anchor bolts keeping street lights in place, screw drive garage door openers, a C-clamp, guard rail systems on the highway. Maybe you’ve flown on an airplane, ridden in an elevator or driven a car with aluminum tire rims – Keystone produces components for the companies that make these things.
