  • Working knowledge of CNC lathe, CNC milling, 3-axis, 4-axis and 5-axis machining, Swiss-type lathes and multi-axis turning with live tooling.
  • Experience with G-code programming, CNC editing, and CNC setup; familiarity with CNC turning, milling and milling/lathe centers.
  • Exposure to CAM/CAD tools such as MasterCAM, GibbsCAM and SolidWorks (CAD/CAM knowledge preferred).
  • Understanding of cutting tool geometry, coolant systems, tooling selection and thread milling/boring operations.
  • Ability to control surface finish and use SPC for process control and quality assurance.
  • Experience machining common materials including steel, aluminum, titanium, brass and other alloys.
  • Skilled in deburring, finishing and achieving tight tolerances; strong attention to detail and commitment to part quality.
  • Comfortable with setup and operation of mill/lathe combinations, Swiss lathes and complex fixtures.
