  • Hold tight tolerances, read complex blueprints, and apply advanced GD&T with confidence?

  • Operate safely in an industrial environment; consistently use required PPE.
  • Set up and operate CNC vertical and horizontal mills and lathes.
  • Load and run CNC programs; verify accuracy and optimize machine efficiency.
  • Execute machining processes: turning, milling, drilling, reaming, boring, slotting, grinding, and tapping.
  • Read and interpret advanced blueprints; apply manufacturing process knowledge and GD&T.
  • Inspect parts and record results using scales, calipers, micrometers, profilometers, indicators, and related inspection tools.
  • Troubleshoot problems and make adjustments to sustain quality and productivity.
  • Rig, move, and flip heavy components using overhead cranes.
  • Monitor and maintain shop tooling to ensure capability and reliability.
You Have
  • Minimum 10 years of combined CNC and manual machining experience.
  • Advanced understanding of blueprints, manufacturing processes, and GD&T.
  • Advanced metrology knowledge and strong inspection technique.
  • Experience with safe rigging and overhead crane operations.
  • Positive attitude, dependable attendance, and commitment to safety and efficiency.
Work Conditions
  • Weekend and overtime availability as needed.
  • Ability to stand for extended periods.
