* Set up and run machines — Handle tooling, fixtures, work holding, probes, and offsets. Perform first-off inspections and maintain quality throughout production runs.
* Own quality — Inspect parts using micrometres, verniers, height gauges, and bore gauges. Ensure everything meets drawing specs, GD&T requirements, and customer standards.
* Improve processes — Identify opportunities to reduce cycle times, extend tool life, and enhance output. Support lights-out machining through reliable setups and monitoring.
* Maintain and troubleshoot — Diagnose issues like chatter, dimensional variance, or tool failures. Carry out preventative maintenance and flag any mechanical or control problems.
What you'll bring
* 3+ years of CNC milling experience
* Proficiency in CAM programming and/or G-code editing
* Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings and GD&T
* Experience with precision measurement tools and quality control practices
* Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail
* Comfortable working independently or as part of a team
