Our client is a Canadian custom metal fabrication and manufacturing company that supports industrial customers with the production of precision metal components and assemblies. Their capabilities span design support, laser cutting, forming, welding, machining, and assembly, giving employees exposure to a broad range of practical manufacturing processes.
This is a shop-floor role within a company that values quality workmanship, organized production, and continuous improvement. The work is tangible, technical, and detail-driven. Every part has to be made correctly, inspected carefully, and moved through production with safety and accuracy in mind.
*The stated compensation range reflects the full scope of the role as currently structured and is provided in accordance with pay transparency requirements. Offers are determined based on relevant experience, demonstrated skills, internal equity, and alignment with the role’s requirements. The upper end of the range is typically reserved for candidates who fully meet all requirements and qualifications outlined in this posting and the official job description.
This is a hands-on production role for someone who wants to build or continue developing practical manufacturing skills in metal forming and brake press support.
As a Brake Press Helper, you will work closely with operators and production leadership to help prepare, form, inspect, and move work through the department. The role offers exposure to technical drawings, work orders, quality checks, forming equipment, and continuous improvement practices, making it well-suited to someone who enjoys learning on the floor and contributing to work that has to be done accurately.
For the right person, this is more than an operator role. It is a chance to become a trusted part of a production team, develop stronger technical judgment, and support the flow of quality parts through a busy manufacturing environment.
In this position, you will support forming operations by assisting with daily production priorities, organizing work orders, tracking order progress, and helping ensure parts are completed to specification.
You will assist with forming tasks involving various metals, including mild steel, aluminum, and stainless steel. This will include reviewing drawings, blueprints, measurements, work orders, and procedures to help fabricate parts and assemblies accurately.
The role also involves supporting quality checks throughout the forming process. You will help monitor bends, identify potential defects, assist with inspections, and support First Article Inspection activity where required. When quality concerns arise, you may work with production leadership and quality team members to help resolve issues related to part damage, shortages, tolerances, or other non-conformances.
Maintaining a safe, organized, and efficient work area is also an important part of the role. The successful candidate will follow health and safety practices, wear required safety gear, support 5S standards, and help keep forming equipment and work areas in good condition.
You will also participate in training, process improvement, and continuous improvement initiatives as needed, with the goal of improving forming methods, production flow, and overall department performance.
The ideal candidate will bring some hands-on manufacturing, fabrication, metal forming, or general production experience.
