Precision Steel Services has supplied steel across the Midwest since 1974. We are looking for a Deburring & Finishing Operator to help clean, finish, organize, and move steel parts through production.
This role is the bridge between cutting and quality.
As a Deburring & Finishing Operator, you run deburring equipment, hand-finish parts when needed, and stage material so production keeps moving. When this role is done right, parts move forward clean, safe, and ready for inspection. When it is not, work backs up, rework increases, and the next operation slows down.
This is hands-on, physical work for someone who can keep pace, stay consistent, and take pride in doing the job right.
Pay, Shift & Growth Opportunity
Base Pay: $18.50/hour, based on experience
Shift Premiums:
2nd Shift: +$0.50/hour
3rd Shift: +$1.00/hour
Overtime available
How You Grow Here
We do not believe in flat roles. Your pay and responsibility can grow with performance.
Operators can advance by building skill in part finishing, material handling, quality awareness, safe work habits, production pace, and overall reliability.
Progression is earned through performance, not just time on the job.
What You’ll Do
Operate deburring and finishing equipment to clean and finish steel parts
Load, unload, move, and position steel parts manually or with lifting equipment as trained
Remove sharp edges, slag, burrs, and surface issues from cut parts
Use hand tools and grinders when machine finishing is not enough
Inspect parts for cleanliness, edge condition, finish quality, and obvious defects
Label, stack, organize, and stage material correctly for the next operation
Keep finished parts moving so production does not back up
Follow work instructions and basic job information
Use basic measurements, including tape measure and shop math, as trained
Communicate quality, workflow, material, or equipment issues early
Maintain a clean, safe work area and follow PPE requirements
What We Expect
You own the finish — dirty, sharp, or poorly finished parts do not move forward
You work with urgency while keeping control of quality and safety
You stay consistent during repetitive physical work
You pay attention to details like part condition, marking, stacking, and staging
You keep your area moving so the next operation is not waiting
You stay aware of your surroundings in an active manufacturing environment
You communicate problems instead of ignoring them
You show up reliably and understand that attendance matters
You are willing to learn, improve, and take on more responsibility over time
What Winning Looks Like
Finished parts are clean, safe, and ready for inspection
Sharp edges, burrs, slag, and obvious quality issues are caught before parts move forward
Material is labeled, stacked, organized, and staged correctly
Production keeps moving because finished parts do not pile up
Rework is reduced
Your work area stays clean, safe, and controlled
You stay reliable, consistent, and productive throughout the shift
You build trust and become someone the team can count on
