Résumé du poste

Danfoss seeks an Associate R&D Machinist in Tallahassee, FL to turn engineering concepts into precision prototype parts on advanced CNC equipment, collaborating with engineers to advance designs from concept to prototype.

You’ll program, set up, and run CNC mills, lathes, and grinders, read drawings with GD&T, and inspect parts with calipers and micrometers to meet tight tolerances in a safety-conscious, quality-focused environment.

Qualifications

• High school diploma or GED and 5+ years of machining experience in a precision manufacturing, prototype, or toolroom environment.
• Strong proficiency in GD&T, blueprint reading, and interpreting engineering drawings.
• Hands-on experience programming and operating CNC machining equipment, including familiarity with Siemens Sinumerik controls and the ability to read and modify basic G-code/M-code.
• Demonstrated ability to perform precision inspections using standard metrology tools and consistently achieve tight tolerances.

Responsabilités

• Program, set up, and operate CNC mills, lathes, grinders, and conventional machining equipment to manufacture complex R&D prototype components.
• Interpret engineering drawings, GD&T requirements, and machining specifications to determine the most effective machining strategy, tooling, workholding, and process parameters.
• Partner closely with engineers and internal customers to deliver precision prototype parts that meet design intent, functionality, and quality expectations.
• Verify dimensional accuracy using precision inspection equipment such as calipers, micrometers, bore gauges, height gauges, and dial indicators, maintaining tolerances as tight as ±0.010 mm.
• Create and optimize machine programs using Siemens Sinumerik ShopMill/ShopTurn, utilize Hypermill CAM when appropriate, and troubleshoot machining processes to improve efficiency and part quality.
• Maintain equipment, monitor machine performance, and uphold safety, quality, and workplace organization standards throughout the manufacturing process.
