* Set and operate manual machines (milling, broaching, grinding).
* Read technical drawings and take pride in meeting "zero-defect" standards.
* Keep your workspace sharp and efficient using 5S principles.

* Solid experience in deburring and manual machining.
* The ability to read and interpret technical drawings.
* A steady hand and an eye for detail.
