Work History

Laborer Operator

Amsted Rail
03.2025 - Current
  • My main role at Amsted Rail, was chiller operator, where my task was to make sure coils were running through smoothly, cooling down properly, and unjamming any coils that have gotten jammed up in the process, I would also check each coil that would come through the machine for any defects and take out the bad ones to scrap them.
  • Was also trained on other machinery when my line would be down, I was trained and operated on and operated the following types of machinery.

Pacific Press-Was in charge of putting finished coils through a gage that would then fall into a conveyor that went to a machine where a robot arm would grab the coils, about 4 at a time, and compress the coils to a specific calibrated setting, the coil would go down the line get dunked into a tank to get coated in an epoxy to prevent rusting and then finally thrown into a box for later sorting.

Jumping Jack- This was another machine that would compress the bigger coils down to a specific height, this one was more hands on, where we would grab about 2 to 4 coils line them up in the proper spots in the machine, and press the button that would make the machine go, and compress the springs, when they're done being compressed, I would measure the height with a gage, and palletize it in a box for shipping to receive it,

Shear Operator- Was trained and operated a machine that would cut metal bars to a specific length, I would grab 3 bars at a time run them through the machine and cut each bar about 2 to 3 times depending on the length of the cut.

Warehouse- When the warehouse needed help I would go over and palletize coils, where I would grab each coil out of the box check for clear stamps and quality, taking out and scapping any bad coils.

Other Tasks-

-Improved worksite efficiency by maintaining clean and organized work areas.
