Job Description

Are you the Swiss-type expert who thrives on first-part success?

You’ll own the end-to-end process on CNC Swiss-style lathes making medical instruments and implants—setting up, operating, maintaining, and continuously improving. You’ll tackle program debugging, setup optimization for NPI, and hands-on fabrication, deburring, inspection, and troubleshooting to deliver on-time with zero compromise on quality.

Shifts available : 1st and 2nd shift.

What you will handle

  • Setups and changeovers from start to finish, including tool changes, machine adjustments, and CNC program debugging.
  • Operation and care of CNC Swiss-style machines, plus finishing equipment, hand tools, and fixtures—perform burr removal as required.
  • Interpret blueprints, inspection check-sheets, and work instructions accurately.
  • Measure using calipers, micrometers, height stands, and comparators; document results electronically.
  • Leverage ERP and machine monitoring systems to manage work orders, track production, and record quality checks.
  • Provide detailed feedback to CNC programmers and maintain up-to-date setup documentation under change control procedures.
  • Coach teammates within your area to maximize CNC equipment utilization and production attainment; support training when needed.
  • Lead continuous improvement initiatives that elevate quality and delivery.
  • Execute to the production plan and uphold on-time delivery to customers.

Do you bring the right toolkit?

  • High School Diploma or equivalent required; advanced technical training is a plus.
  • 5+ years of experience operating Swiss-style lathes in manufacturing.
  • Background with Citizen, Tsugami, or similar platforms preferred.
  • Strong command of machinery, tooling, measuring, and gauging equipment with a deep understanding of production processes.
  • Mastery of setups, blueprint reading, routers, and setup files.
  • Ability to understand functional and cosmetic part requirements.
  • Working knowledge of basic CNC programming.
  • Clear, effective verbal communicator across production, management, and technical stakeholders.
  • Comfort with lean manufacturing principles.
  • Proven ability to follow instructions and execute tasks as directed by the Supervisor.
  • Alignment with company core values and professional behaviors.
  • Knowledge of Avalign’s Quality System, including Measurement Instruction Sheet (MIS) layout and purpose, and Avalign’s Compliance Policies.
  • Your impact

    Close production gaps, elevate first-pass yield, and help launch new products smoothly. Your precision makes the difference between a good part and a great one—exactly what patients and clinicians expect.
