If you’ve got real time behind a laser—this is where you want to be.
We’re not looking for entry-level.
We’re looking for operators who know the machines, know the materials, and take pride in precision work.
You’ll be running high-performance laser cutting equipment producing tight-tolerance, high-quality parts in a fast-paced shop environment.
Tube Laser experience? That’s a BIG win.
Plasma or Waterjet background? We like that too.
