Job Description & How to Apply Below
Schedule:
Monday–Thursday, 6:00 a.m.–4:30 p.m.A Day in the Role You arrive before the first spindle turns, blueprint in hand. You verify the job traveler, pull the fixtures, and begin dialing in your lathe. Tool offsets are set with care; you adjust speeds and feeds until the cut sounds right and the chips look perfect. You run the first article, verify dimensions against the print with precision hand metrology, and sign off once everything hits spec.
Throughout the day, you pivot between new setups and short production runs, troubleshooting tooling wear, tweaking offsets, and keeping quality tight. You’ll produce parts for both aerospace and commercial customers—no prior aerospace experience required.
What You’ll Do Independently set up CNC lathes (2–4 axis) for first articles and production.
Interpret blueprints and GD&T to plan setups and verify features.
Own tooling selection, offsets, speeds, and feeds to achieve cycle stability.
Inspect your work using precision measurement and advanced gauges.
Collaborate with the team to solve machining challenges and keep jobs moving.
