What does a Cold Header Machine Operator do?

A Cold Header Machine Operator is responsible for setting up, operating, and maintaining machines that form metal parts, such as bolts, screws, and rivets, by using a process called cold heading.

Safety, attention to detail, and mechanical aptitude are important skills for this role.
