Your responsibility extends beyond your own machine. Within the team, you build knowledge of different machining operations and, in line with your training and competence level, support other tasks and process steps whenever production planning or line requirements demand it.

• You ensure that machined parts meet all quality requirements before proceeding to the next production step.
• You provide clear handovers to colleagues and communicate proactively about production issues, material shortages, or quality concerns.
• You support other relevant operations and process steps within the production line in accordance with your training and qualifications.
• You contribute to continuous improvement initiatives aimed at reducing waiting times, work-in-progress inventory, setup losses, and rework.
• You help maintain a safe, organized, and efficient working environment.

Your skills and experience

• You have a strong interest in technology, CNC machining, and manufacturing processes. Previous CNC operator experience is an advantage.
• You enjoy working as part of a team while taking ownership of your own responsibilities.
• You are willing to learn different tasks and process steps and can flexibly support production needs based on your training and competence.
• You work accurately, follow quality standards, and consistently adhere to safety procedures and work instructions.
• You communicate effectively with colleagues, provide clear handovers, and report issues or delays in a timely manner.
• You have a practical mindset and actively contribute ideas to reduce waiting times, unnecessary inventory, setup losses, and rework.
• You remain calm and adaptable when priorities or production requirements change.
• You are willing to work in a flexible three-shift system.
