  • Familiarity with Okuma OSP controls and troubleshooting multi-axis operations
  • Experience programming multi-axis lathes and mills, including 4- and 5-axis applications
  • Demonstrated ability to assess personal and team performance, seek feedback, pursue training, and share expertise to build team capabilities
  • Proactive approach to quality improvement, with a track record of accuracy, thoroughness, and process enhancements
  • Experience drafting detailed instructions, such as safety protocols, operating/maintenance guides, and procedural manuals
  • Strong skills in routine and technical correspondence to facilitate clear communication across teams
