• Machine precision components for custom machine builds and subcontract work
• Perform your own inspections and stand behind your parts
• Optimize setups and improve efficiency
• Safely operate overhead cranes

Youll move between jobs. Youll solve problems. Youll make decisions that matter.

What We Expect

• Proven experience in a job shop or custom manufacturing environment
• Strong independent setup and troubleshooting ability
• Confidence programming at the machine
• Solid understanding of feeds, speeds, tooling, and materials
