Job Description

A day in this role

You arrive to find an Okuma lathe ready for a new run. You review the blueprint, interpret GD&T callouts, load tooling, and dial in zero points. You verify dimensions with hand gauges, then move to the optical comparator and CMM for first-article checks. A quick G/M code tweak optimizes cycle time, and you complete a complex setup from clear work instructions—confidently and with limited supervision. By shift end, the machine is producing consistent, spec-perfect parts for production.
