Senior Swiss CNC Turning Specialist

Senior Swiss CNC Turning Specialist At TOMZ, we craft precision components for life-changing Medical Devices using advanced metal machining, finishing, assembly, and anodizing. Step into our Swiss machining department and take ownership of complex setups, tight-tolerance production, and inspection excellence in a regulated environment.

A day in this role

You arrive to the Swiss cell, review your work orders, and begin prepping a Citizen or Tsugami lathe. You load tools, dial in offsets, and bring a legacy job back to life with steady, repeatable performance. Between cycles, you verify critical features with microscopes, micrometers, calipers, pin and thread gauges, comparators, Micro-Hite, CMM, and vision systems. When the schedule shifts, you pivot to an Index multi-spindle lathe or move to 3-, 4-, or 5-axis production equipment—including Robo Drills, mill-turn platforms, and horizontal/vertical mills—to keep delivery promises on track.

Throughout the day, you document to ISO 13485 standards, maintain material identification and traceability for both conforming and nonconforming parts, and record results in our ERP and QMS systems. You troubleshoot a stubborn surface finish, swap a tool, adjust wear offsets, and lead a quick root-cause session. You perform preventive maintenance, mentor junior machinists, and keep safety and PPE front-and-center. You collaborate with Manufacturing, R&D, and QA to refine processes—always with GDP/GMP best practices in mind.

What you'll doSet up and operate Citizen and Tsugami Swiss lathes, Index multi-spindle lathes, and 3–4–5 axis production equipment (Robo Drills, mill-turn, horizontal/vertical mills).Perform tool changes and offsets to drive efficient, stable production with minimal support.
