As independent contractors, they typically manage their own schedules, negotiate contracts, and may work for multiple clients or companies. This role requires technical expertise in CNC machinery, attention to detail, and the ability to troubleshoot and maintain equipment. Being an independent contractor also means handling business aspects such as invoicing, taxes, and acquiring new clients.
