Saw Operator

Key Responsibilities:

• Setup & Operation: Select, set up, adjust, and safely operate industrial metal saws to cut materials according to specific job orders and production schedules.
• Blueprint Reading: Interpret engineering drawings, bills of materials (BOM), and job travelers to ensure all cuts meet exact length, angle, and tolerance specifications.
• Quality Control: Inspect incoming raw materials for defects prior to cutting. Measure and verify completed cuts using tape measures, calipers, or micrometers to detect imperfections and ensure strict conformance.
• Material Management: Pull, sort, and organize raw materials from inventory; ensure completed parts are accurately counted, grouped, and routed to the next stage of production (welding/machining).
• Equipment Maintenance: Perform daily pre-use inspections of machinery. Clean and lubricate equipment, adjust blade speed/tension, and replace worn or defective saw blades as needed.
• Safety & Housekeeping: Adhere strictly to OSHA standards and company safety procedures, including the proper use of required Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) guidelines. Maintain a clean, orderly, and hazard-free workspace.
