Qualifications:

• Experience: 5-10 years of CNC machining experience in a manufacturing environment.
• Proficiency in CNC setup, G-code programming, and editing programs on the fly.
• Strong knowledge of blueprint reading, GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing), and machining principles.
• Ability to work independently and as part of a team in a fast-paced environment.
• Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
• Operation of forklift and vehicles
• Moderate experience in manual machining and surface grinding

Compensation:

• Depending on experience and qualifications the hourly pay range for this position is $30.00-$40.00 per hour.
