Full Time TOLEDO, OH, US

30+ days ago Requisition

Precision Steel Services has supplied steel across the Midwest since 1974. We are looking for a Deburring & Finishing Operator to help clean, finish, organize, and move steel parts through production.

This role is the bridge between cutting and quality.

As a Deburring & Finishing Operator, you run deburring equipment, hand-finish parts when needed, and stage material so production keeps moving. When this role is done right, parts move forward clean, safe, and ready for inspection. When it is not, work backs up, rework increases, and the next operation slows down.

This is hands‑on, physical work for someone who can keep pace, stay consistent, and take pride in doing the job right.

Base Pay: $18.50/hour, based on experience

Shift Premiums:

• 2nd Shift: +$0.50/hour
• 3rd Shift: +$1.00/hour

Overtime available

We do not believe in flat roles. Your pay and responsibility can grow with performance.

Operators can advance by building skill in part finishing, material handling, quality awareness, safe work habits, production pace, and overall reliability.

Progression is earned through performance, not just time on the job.
