Express Employment Professionals - Akron

Job Description

Job Description

Could This Be Your Next Move?

We’re growing in Rootstown, OH 44272—and we’re searching for an operator who thrives around molding presses and extrusion lines. If problem-solving on the fly and reading a blueprint are second nature, keep reading.

Ask Yourself:
  • Do you enjoy running, monitoring, and dialing in production machinery to hit quality and output goals?
  • Can you interpret specs, work orders, and blueprints to set up equipment the right way the first time?
  • Are you proactive about routine maintenance and troubleshooting to prevent downtime?
  • Do you keep work areas clean, safe, and audit-ready?
  • Can you collaborate with teammates to meet deadlines without sacrificing safety?
Role Highlights
  • Operate a variety of machines (including molding and extrusion) for consistent, efficient production.
  • Perform changeovers, tool adjustments, and basic repairs; escalate issues as needed.
  • Document work as required and follow all company policies and safety protocols.
What We’re Looking For
  • High school diploma or equivalent; technical machine training is a plus.
  • Manufacturing/production background preferred.
  • Strong mechanical aptitude with solid troubleshooting skills.
  • Independent worker who’s also a strong team contributor.
  • Detail-oriented with a commitment to quality.
  • Willing to work flexible hours, including overtime.
Skills That Stand Out
  • Machine safety inspections
  • Machine setups for production runs
  • Plastic extrusion experience
  • Shop math skills
  • Injection molding experience
  • Blow molding experience
  • inspect
  • press operator
  • production
  • rubber

Ready to bring your press and molding expertise to a team that values reliability, craftsmanship, and safety? We’d like to meet you.
