Key Responsibilities

• Setup & Operations: Set up and operate CNC mills, lathes, and manual equipment (mills, lathes, surface grinders, drill presses) safely and efficiently.
• Programming & Controls: Load, edit, and optimize CNC programs (G-code/M-code) at the machine control or using CAM software.
• Blueprint Reading: Interpret detailed engineering drawings, GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing), and CAD models to plan operational steps and tolerances.
• Quality Inspection: Inspect precision parts using standard measuring tools (micrometers, calipers, height gauges, bore gauges, indicators) to ensure adherence to strict tolerances.
• Materials Handling: Work with a variety of materials, including aluminum, stainless steel, tool steel, brass, and engineering plastics.
• Tooling & Workholding: Select proper tooling, cutting speeds, feeds, and design or adapt custom jigs/fixtures as needed.
• Maintenance & Safety: Perform routine preventative maintenance on machinery, keep work areas clean and organized (5S), and strictly adhere to all safety policies and OSHA standards.
• Collaboration: Partner with automation design engineers and assemblers to troubleshoot designs, refine manufacturability, and solve technical issues.
  

Qualifications & Requirements

• Experience: 1+ years of professional machining experience preferred, but open to training the right person with basic high school shop experience.
• Technical Skills:
• • Strong proficiency with CNC controls (e.g., Fanuc, Haas, or similar) and manual machines.
  • Solid understanding of G-code programming, feeds, speeds, and tooling selection.
  • Proficient in reading engineering blueprints and understanding GD&T.
• Physical Requirements: Ability to lift up to 50 lbs, stand for extended periods, and perform repetitive hand movements.
• Personal Attributes: Strong attention to detail, problem-solving mindset, and the ability to work independently with minimal supervision.
