Posted/Updated: 12 days ago

Job Description

Wanted - a person who enjoys working with their hands, and is good with machines, to join the Tube Laser team at the Midwest's premier laser cutting job shop. We are looking for the right person who can help Kooima Company achieve its goals by fulfilling our customers' needs for laser-cut tube steel parts.

If this interests you, here are some of the things you would be doing to help us meet our goal:

  • Providing our customers with the finest parts possible by operating and maintaining tube laser-cutting machines
  • Fabricating high quality parts by setting up, loading/unloading, producing, and packaging laser-cut tube steel parts
  • Cutting a wide variety of customer parts in various sizes, shapes, and metal thicknesses
  • Ensuring that the finished parts meet our world class standards
  • Working with a high degree of efficiency, skill, and quality to help keep our customers' costs reasonable

If you can accomplish the above, you've got what it takes. Realistically though, in order to hit the ground running, we prefer if you have at least some experience operating machinery or working with metal. You also need to be able to learn new things quickly so we can teach you how to run the machines and read blueprints. Previous experience operating and running CNC or laser-cutting machines would be nice, but we can train you if you don't have the experience.

Required Skills

  • Ability to read work orders and communicate verbally with others
  • Ability to continuously lift up to 50 pounds, and frequently lift up to 80 pounds
  • Ability to learn quickly
  • Some experience operating machinery or working with metal is preferred
