Machine Operator

We are looking for an Automated Machine Operator to work in our Coatesville location
, who is less about manual labor and more about technology, precision, and systems monitoring. In this role, you will oversee, program, and troubleshoot advanced, computer-controlled machinery (such as CNC routers, automated saws, and robotic edge-banders) that transform raw wood into high-quality finished products. If you enjoy working with technology and have a strong mechanical mindset, this is the perfect opportunity to advance your career.

• Equipment Operation:
  Set up, calibrate, and operate advanced CNC, PLC-controlled, or fully automated wood processing machinery.
• Console Monitoring:
  Monitor computerized control panels, touchscreens, and system diagnostics to ensure the machinery is running smoothly, efficiently, and at peak capacity.
• Quality & Precision:
  Use digital calipers, micrometers, and automated gauges to verify that finished wood parts exactly match blueprints and technical specifications.
• Troubleshooting:
  Identify machine errors, clear minor jams, and make real-time programming adjustments or mechanical tweaks to keep production on track.
• Material Loading:
  Monitor the flow of raw materials into automated feeding systems and ensure finished products are properly discharged.
• Safety & Maintenance:
  Perform routine preventative maintenance (cleaning sensors, checking fluid levels) and strictly adhere to all automated cell safety protocols (light curtains, interlocking guards).

• Experience:
  
  1–2 years of experience operating automated manufacturing machinery. Experience with CNC machinery, PLCs, or automated woodworking equipment is highly preferred.
• Technical Aptitude:
  Comfortable navigating computer interfaces, reading digital blueprints, and understanding basic manufacturing software.
• Mechanical Skill: A strong knack for troubleshooting and understanding how mechanical systems, sensors, and pneumatics work together.
• Attention to Detail:
  Ability to spot minor defects or deviations in high-speed, automated production runs.
• Reliability:
  Excellent attendance, a strong work ethic, and a commitment to keeping a clean, safe tech-driven workspace.

• Top-tier hourly pay with regular opportunities for overtime.
