• Maintain tight tolerances of ±0.001" on all relevant parts and processes.
• Interpret and work from blueprints and part drawings to ensure accurate machining.
• Perform basic visual quality inspections of finished parts to verify conformance to specifications.
• Collaborate with other machinists and shop personnel to coordinate workflow and machine usage.

Work Environment
You will work in a small machine shop environment alongside one manual machinist and one full-time CNC machinist, with the potential for up to four machinists in the shop at a time when others return from leave. The shop runs Haas mills and lathes, including two center turning lathes and five mills (V2, V4, and V5), using Fusion 360-generated programs and traditional machine shop tools.
