  • Recommend process improvements for tooling, fixtures, and cycle time reduction.
  • Collaborate with engineering / programming to refine machining strategies.
  • Maintain a safe, clean, and efficient work area.

Qualifications

  • 5+ years CNC machining experience, including setups and operation.
  • Deep knowledge of milling and turning (multi-axis or Swiss experience a plus).
