  • Build setup sheets and standard process documentation
  • Work side by side with machinists during setup and early runs
  • Improve programs for clarity, repeatability, and cycle time
Required Skills
  • 3 to 6 years in CNC programming or advanced setup

  • Strong print reading and GD and T basics
Preferred Skills
  • Mill turn or live tool lathe experience
