CNC Burn Table and Heavy Plate Rolling Specialist

Location: Creola, AL

Picture your first morning on the floor: you power up the CNC burn table, pull up the right nests, check torch heights and consumables, and start producing precise cuts without waiting on anyone. You roll plate components to spec, confirm every dimension against the print, and keep the line moving. If that sounds like your pace, our client wants you on their high-volume fabrication team.

About the Role

This is a hands-on production position in a heavy fabrication environment. We’re seeking an experienced operator who can work independently from day one—no entry-level training is available. You’ll primarily run CNC burning and 4-roll plate rolling equipment, while pitching in across the shop to keep throughput high and schedules on track.

What You’ll Handle Day-to-Day

• Burn table mastery: Boot and set up CNC burn tables, load existing programs, validate nesting layouts, set torch height, confirm cut parameters, check consumables, and resolve basic cut issues.
• Plate rolling: Operate 4-roll machines to form thin through heavy plate up to 1-1/2” thick x 10’ wide, producing shell plates, vessel cans, and manway necks to engineering prints.
• Section bending: Run 3-roll pipe rollers (1” up to 4’ diameter) and 3-roll angle rollers to bend 1”x1” through 5”x5” sections, leg-in and leg-out.
• Material moves: Load/unload heavy plate and finished parts using forklifts and overhead cranes, following strict safety practices.
• Quality on every piece: Check parts against drawings, diagnose cut-quality issues, mark/etch, and stage components for weld and fab teams.

What You Bring

• 5–10 years of professional experience burning and rolling plate (highly preferred).
• Background working with carbon steel and/or stainless steel.
• Confidence to run independently with minimal supervision.
• Willingness to complete a hands-on equipment test before a formal offer (senior-level role).
• Altra burn table familiarity is a strong plus.

Why You’ll Want This Seat

• Top-tier pay for elite skills: $24.00–$26.00/hr plus a $3.00/hr performance bonus.
• Real autonomy: If you can read prints, verify nests, and execute clean cuts and rolls, you own the station—no micromanaging.
• Meaningful builds: Your work shapes components for storage tanks, pressure vessels, and structural assemblies.
• Long-term stability: Full-time role in a collaborative, safety-first shop with steady production.
