- Press brake expertise — programming, setup, tooling selection, bending processes, and troubleshooting
- Experience with CAD/CAM, nesting, and fabrication programming software
- Broader fabrication experience with equipment such as turret punch, plasma, waterjet, or plate roll is a plus
- Experience as a lead, supervisor, foreman, production planner, or other go-to technical resource is highly valued
