(Include the following; however, other duties may apply.)

CNC Operation & Technical Expertise

• Independently set up and operate multiple types of CNC equipment, including mills, lathes, and/or routers.

• Perform complex setups involving tooling, offsets, workholding, and program validation with minimal supervision.

• Interpret and apply part prints, work travelers, setup sheets, and G-code programs to produce in-tolerance parts.

• Adjust machine settings and make program modifications as needed to ensure part conformity and production continuity.

• Take precise measurements and calculate dimensions, offsets, and tolerances using appropriate tools and specifications.

Process Control & Documentation

• Ensure consistent adherence to documented setup procedures and production standards.

• Use metrology tools such as calipers, micrometers, and height gauges to perform in-process quality checks.

• Accurately complete production documentation and inspection records.

• Communicate observations or suggestions to engineering and quality teams to support process improvements or part revisions.

Training & Peer Support

• Coach and support Production Support Specialists and other operators in machine operation, blueprint interpretation, and safety procedures.

• Clearly explain technical processes and provide guidance in a professional and constructive manner.

• Assist with onboarding and cross-training efforts by demonstrating proper setup and operation techniques.

• Reinforce safety protocols and quality expectations through daily interactions.

Continuous Improvement & Floor Support

• Identify recurring issues or inefficiencies and collaborate with engineering, maintenance, or leadership to address root causes.
