  • Drive continuous improvement initiatives to boost throughput and efficiency.
What you bring
  • High school diploma or equivalent; additional machining education/certification is a plus.
  • Hands-on experience running Swiss CNC equipment in a production environment.
  • Solid grasp of machining principles and strong blueprint reading ability.
  • Proficiency with precision measuring tools and inspection methods.
  • Sharp problem-solving skills and exceptional attention to detail.
  • Clear communicator and effective team collaborator.
  • Flexibility to work varied hours and overtime when needed.
Proficiencies that set you apart

  • Deburring best practices and finishing techniques
  • CNC machine setup and changeover for new parts
  • Understanding of machine geometry and alignment
