Metal Band Saw Operator - Metal Cutting May 20, 2025

Located in tigard, OR

Job Full Description

Do you have experience working with metal cutting tools—specifically heavy-duty band saws? Are you confident using a tape measure and cutting to precise specifications? If so, we’ve got a hands-on, high-impact job for you!

A well-established metal workshop near the Tualatin River is looking for their next skilled Metal Band Saw Operator. This isn’t a helper or entry-level position—they need someone with real experience, ready to dive in and start cutting. The shop specializes in precision cuts on massive steel beams, and the team is looking for a reliable new hire who could grow into a long-term role (you might even be Steve’s successor when he retires!).

This is a physical job where you’ll get a little dirty—think flying metal shavings, heavy steel beams, and solid, satisfying work. The company provides all your gear: gloves, overalls, eye protection, and even extra steel-toe boots. You'll start out operating band saws, and over time you'll be trained on forklifts to move 40-60 foot beams weighing 3,000–5,000 lbs.

If you know how to measure in cubic inches and can cut metal to exact customer specs, you’ll fit right in.

Job Duties:

  • Operate heavy-duty metal band saws to cut large steel beams and materials
  • Use tape measures and read work orders to make precise cuts (within ¼ inch tolerance)
  • Perform math calculations (like cubic inches: length × width × height) for measurement and volume requirements
  • Safely place beams on machines and prepare them for cutting
  • Package and stage finished materials for shipment according to order specs
  • Maintain a clean and safe work area despite the presence of metal shavings and debris
  • Wear and maintain proper PPE (provided)
  • Learn to operate forklifts to transport heavy metal beams
  • Follow all safety procedures and quality standards

Benefits:

  • 401k

  • Medical insurance

  • Optical coverage

  • Dental coverage

  • Life Insurance

  • Short-term disability coverage
