Job description

Step into the shop where metal becomes mission-criticalPicture this: It’s 6:55 a.m. in Valley View, OH. You grab your PPE, review the job packet for a stainless order, and cue up the thread rolling machine. You dial in speed, pressure, and die contact, confirm the spec, and send the first bar through. You lift the next bundle with the overhead crane, verify heat numbers, and keep the traveler with every container. Between runs, you log production in the ERP, record SPC to spec, and capture any downtime. The goal is steady flow, clean handoffs, and parts that meet our Quality Policy—every time.That’s a day on the floor at Keystone Threaded Products, a family-owned manufacturer crafting customized threaded rods since 1920. ISO 9001 certified and proudly USA-made, our parts show up everywhere: the anchor bolts holding streetlights, the screw drive in garage door openers, C‑clamps, highway guard rails—even components that go into airplanes, elevators, and aluminum wheels.The roleAs a Roll Threading Technician on our first shift (Mon–Fri), you’ll set up and operate thread rolling equipment to meet set-up and piece-per-hour standards, maximize machine uptime, and escalate issues quickly. Prefer second shift? We also run 3:00 p.m.–1:30 a.m., Mon–Thu. Prior roll threading experience helps, but isn’t required—mechanical aptitude, a strong work ethic, and curiosity to learn are musts. Pay is based on your knowledge and experience.What your day looks likeGear up with PPE and review the job packet—materials, tooling, and specs. Set and fine-tune controls: speed, pressure, and die contact to hit spec. Run parts while monitoring safety, quality, and productivity targets. Keep heat/mill numbers straight; tag every container before producing parts. Use the overhead crane safely to move bars and workpieces. Capture set-up, production time, piece counts, downtime, and training in the ERP. Record SPC data and verify it against the job’s requirements. Tackle 6‑S and 2‑Second Lean improvements or maintenance during downtime.
