✅ What We’re Looking For

Depending on the position and experience level:

  • CNC machining or manufacturing experience
  • Ability to read and understand blueprints and part specifications
  • Experience using common precision measuring equipment
  • Understanding of tooling, offsets and basic machining principles
  • Ability to identify and correct dimensional issues during production
  • Strong attention to detail and commitment to producing quality parts
  • Ability to work independently while also working well with a small team
