Job description

We are looking for a new team member to set up, maintain, and operate machinery for stretch forming.

The result is used in many applications but can commonly be seen on building windows that have arched tops.

Stretch forming team members are guided by work orders that describe the requirements. They set up the machines and dies, prepare the metal for the process, and operate the machine to produce the desired shape. They also perform quality tests to ensure the result meets the requirements within acceptable tolerances.
