JFD Cutting is a family-owned waterjet, laser, and fabrication shop in East Earl, Lancaster County. We've grown from one waterjet in 2012 to a 14,000 sq ft facility with two waterjets, two lasers, a press brake, and a fab shop. We're a small team, which means the people here run their machines, see their parts go out the door, and work directly with the owners.
Who we look for
- CNC laser and waterjet operators — Trumpf, Bodor, OMAX, or Jet Edge experience is a plus
- Welders and fabricators — MIG, MAG, and TIG on steel, stainless, and aluminum
- Press brake operators
- Shop-floor generalists who can read a print, use a caliper, and run a forklift
What working here is like
- 40-hour week, first shift — Monday–Thursday 7:30–4:30, Friday 7:30–11:30. No overtime.
- Health insurance — JFD pays 100% of the employee premium after 90 days.
- Two weeks of paid shutdown every year — Christmas/New Year's week and the Fourth of July week.
- Modern equipment and a steady mix of work from Lancaster County manufacturers.
