Job description

Production Machine Operator — CNC, Laser & Vinyl (Day Shift)

PCL Graphics — Markham, ON Full-Time | Day Shift: 6:30 AM – 3:00 PM

About PCL Graphics

Since 1983, PCL Graphics has been an engineering house that happens to print. We design, fabricate, and produce large-format print and visual solutions for some of North America's most recognized retail, architectural, and signage brands. Our floor runs on precision — and precision starts with the people running the machines.

We're growing, and we're looking for a hands-on machine operator to join our day-shift production team.

The Role

You'll run a range of equipment across our cutting and fabrication department — including:

• CNC router
• Laser cutter
• Summa vinyl cutter

This isn't a one-machine job. You'll move between platforms depending on the day's workload, so we're looking for someone who's comfortable learning new equipment and switching gears.

What You'll Do

• Read and interpret job dockets — understand what you're making, the specs, and the end result before you start
• Load sheets and substrates, set up the machine, and run clean, accurate cuts
• Move finished work to the right station so the next step in the job keeps flowing
• Keep a steady, productive pace — machines moving, you moving — without rushing into mistakes
• Treat every docket with care so jobs come off the floor right the first time
• Keep your area organized, safe, and ready for the next run

What We're Looking For

• Technical and detail-oriented — you can read a docket, understand the job, and catch a problem before it becomes scrap
• Reliable — you show up on time, every shift, ready to work
• A good teammate — you communicate well, support the people around you, and keep the floor moving together
• Steady and accurate under pace — fast enough to hit our numbers, careful enough to protect quality
• Open-minded and eager to learn — cross-training across multiple machines is part of the job, and we'll invest in operators who want to grow
• Experience in print, sign-making, fabrication, or CNC/cutting is an asset — but the right attitude and aptitude matter most

What We Offer

• Stable, full-time day shift (6:30 AM – 3:00 PM) — your evenings are your own
• Hands-on training across multiple machine platforms
• Room to grow with a company that’s expanding
• A team that takes pride in doing the work right
