Job Description

Can You Turn Specs into Perfect Cuts?

If you thrive on precision, this role lets you own the process—from interpreting job layouts to delivering defect-free product. Picture this : a rush order hits the floor. You review the spec sheet, set up the Bobst platen or Heidelberg cylinder press, and fine-tune the make-ready. As the first sheets run, you pull predetermined samples from each load, spot a minor misalignment, adjust, and keep production humming—all while meeting Snyder’s safety and quality standards.

Your Impact

  • Production Leadership (≈80%) : Make-ready, set, and run die-cutting equipment (Bobst platen and Heidelberg cylinder). Adjust settings and troubleshoot to achieve target quality.
  • Tooling Precision (≈10%) : Set up stripping tooling with a pin setting table.
  • Data & Docs (≈5%) : Enter production data and complete required forms.
  • Care for Equipment (≈5%) : Clean machines and perform routine maintenance.

Skills to Succeed

  • Proven ability to operate die-cutting machinery.
  • Basic math skills : addition, subtraction, multiplication, division.
  • Intermediate English for reading instructions, writing notes, and communicating clearly.
  • Basic computer literacy for data entry and printing.
  • Accurate measurement skills; able to read a ruler and work with units of measure.
  • What You’ll Watch For

  • Defect detection during scheduled quality pulls from each load run.
  • Root-cause problem solving to keep output on spec.
  • Application of printing, die cutting, and gluing knowledge to optimize results.
  • Clear, professional communication across shifts and teams.
  • Physical Reality of the Job

  • Manual loading with lifting; climbing as needed during operation.
  • Active, semi-automatic machine work that’s both repetitive and varied.
  • Requires strength and good eyesight.
  • Where You’ll Work

    General warehouse environment in a paperboard packaging facility. Expect reaching, bending, and lifting; ability to lift up to 50 lbs is required.

    Recordkeeping, Maintenance, and Teamwork

  • Maintain operating and maintenance records for the machine.
  • Submit maintenance requests when needed.
  • Support additional tasks as requested by the supervisor and plant manager.
  • Follow Snyder’s safety and quality standards consistently.
  • Create a job alert for this search
