  • Troubleshoot machining issues, adjust programs in real-time, and optimize processes to maintain quality and throughput.
  • Perform in-process and final quality checks using precision tools, ensuring compliance with geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T) standards.
  • Maintain and clean CNC equipment to ensure peak performance and longevity.
  • Collaborate with engineers in design, prototyping, and systems integration to enhance manufacturability and support rapid R&D and production cycles.
  • Adapt to dynamic project demands, seamlessly transitioning between prototyping and short-run production.
  • Uphold defense industry standards and safety protocols to meet mission-critical requirements.

Required Qualifications

  • Proven ability to design and implement tooling, fixturing, and workholding solutions.
  • Track record of owning the full manufacturing process, from programming to final inspection.
  • Ability to pivot between R&D prototyping and production environments with ease.
  • Strong multitasking skills and meticulous attention to detail.
  • Physical capability to lift up to 50 lbs unassisted.
  • Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.
  • Preferred Qualifications

  • Expertise in 5-axis simultaneous programming for complex geometries.
  • Proficiency with CAD software like SolidWorks or Siemens NX (Teamcenter) for design and integration.
  • Experience with water jet cutting, 3D printing (FDM / SLA), or CMM programming (e.g., PC-DMIS).
  • Familiarity with defense industry manufacturing standards and quality assurance protocols.
  • Knowledge of advanced machining techniques for lightweight materials and intricate components.
