Brake Press Operator - 4 day work week

Universal Metrics

Job Description

Job Description

Job description:

Join an American Manufacturing Company Built to Last

At Universal Metrics, we don't just manufacture precision metal components—we build careers.

We're looking for an experienced Brake Press Operator to join our growing team in Menomonee Falls. This isn't just another opening. This position has become available because one of our dedicated employees is retiring after 38 years with our company. That kind of longevity speaks volumes about who we are.

If you're looking for a company where your skills are respected, your work matters, and people stay because they enjoy what they do, we'd love to meet you.

What You'll Do:

  • Set up, adjust, and operate CNC press brakes to form a variety of material thicknesses according to engineering drawings.
  • Select, install, and secure forming dies.
  • Program electronic back gauges to achieve required dimensions.
  • Determine the proper sequence of bends for complex parts requiring multiple operations.
  • Perform first-piece and in-process inspections to ensure quality standards are met.
  • Read and interpret blueprints and work instructions.
  • Operate forklifts, overhead cranes, and other material handling equipment.
  • Complete routine daily machine maintenance and keep your work area organized and safe.

What We're Looking For:

  • 3–5 years of brake press setup and operation experience.
  • Experience in metal fabrication manufacturing.
  • Ability to read and interpret blueprints and engineering drawings.
  • Strong understanding of measuring tools and quality inspection techniques.
  • Basic math skills.
  • Ability to work independently while contributing to a team environment.
  • Forklift and overhead crane experience is a plus.
