Operations Associate

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.

What You’ll Do Every Day
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).

What We Are Looking For
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.

Why You’ll Love Working With Us
Top-tier hourly pay with regular opportunities for overtime.

Clean and highly advanced manufacturing environment.
