• Read and interpret blueprints and technical drawings to ensure parts meet dimensional and geometric requirements.
• Apply GD&T principles to verify that parts conform to specified tolerances and design intent.
• Use measuring tools to inspect and verify dimensions, tolerances, and overall quality of machined parts.
• Deburr parts thoroughly to ensure smooth edges and surfaces suitable for use in medical-related testing applications.
• Maintain accurate records and enter information in an office setting related to parts produced, programs used, and process parameters.
• Collaborate with the other lab team member as needed while working independently on daily tasks.
• Follow safety procedures and maintain a clean, organized work area within the lab environment.

• Comfort working in a quiet, focused environment with limited direct supervision.
• Strong attention to detail and commitment to producing high-quality parts.
• Organizational skills to manage programs, documentation, and part records effectively.
• Steel-toe footwear suitable for an industrial or lab environment.

Why Work Here?

You will join a stable, long-tenured team where employees tend to stay for many years, reflecting a supportive and consistent work culture. The environment emphasizes safety and cleanliness, with annual reimbursement for safety glasses and steel-toe footwear to support your well-being. You will work in a quiet, focused setting that offers autonomy, allowing you to take ownership of your work while contributing to products used in critical medical applications.

Work Environment

This is a 2nd shift position, Monday through Friday from 1:30 PM to 9:30 PM. You will work in a clean laboratory environment that supports the production of polyethylene used in medical devices. The role centers on operating a Haas CNC mill and using related measuring tools in a controlled, quiet area with many fans, which helps maintain a comfortable temperature that does not get too hot or too cold.
