Build precision. Shape outcomes.
Join a team focused on making precision metal components right the first time. You’ll combine solid setups, consistent inspections, and thoughtful problem-solving to keep parts flowing and customers happy. Your work may span CNC mills, lathes, and—based on shop demand—presses, brakes, or other fabrication equipment.
Impact you’ll make
- Transform engineering drawings into accurate parts through robust setups and expert operation
- Safeguard quality with meticulous first-piece and in-process inspections
- Eliminate downtime by troubleshooting and correcting issues quickly
- Keep machines reliable through daily care and clear documentation
Core responsibilities
- Set up and operate CNC and/or manual machines to meet specification
- Read/interpret blueprints, engineering drawings, setup sheets, and work orders
- Select and install tooling, fixtures, and workholding
- Load programs, adjust tool/work offsets, and monitor machine performance
- Conduct secondary operations: deburring, drilling, tapping, minor finishing
- Perform first-article and in-process inspections using calipers, micrometers, indicators, and squares
- Make minor program edits or mechanical adjustments when required
- Troubleshoot machining and setup issues to minimize scrap and delays
- Maintain accurate production and quality records
- Complete basic maintenance tasks: cleaning, oiling, and tool changes
- Comply with all safety, quality, and housekeeping standards
Capabilities required
