- High Earning Potential: Competitive pay scale of $30.00 – $35.00/hr.
- Career Growth: Opportunity to learn the "business side" of manufacturing, including purchasing and quoting.

- Heavy Programming: Take the lead on programming (CMM/VMM) to support our high-volume, 50-60 hour weekly programming schedule.
- Blueprint Mastery: Interpret complex technical prints, GD&T symbols, and material specifications with total accuracy.
- Office & Admin Support: Assist the office team with administrative tasks, data entry, and filing during transitional periods.
- Purchasing & Quoting: Fill in and assist with purchasing raw materials/tooling and providing data for job quotes—a critical area for the shop's growth.

Skills & Qualifications
- Layout Expertise: Proven experience as a Layout Inspector in a machine shop setting, capable of using manual tools (micrometers, calipers, height gauges) and automated equipment.
- Programming Prowess: Significant experience in CMM or CNC programming is very important. You must be comfortable with high-volume programming demands.
- Print Reading: Expert-level ability to read and interpret mechanical drawings and blueprints.
- Software Knowledge: * Experience with JobBOSS ERP is a major plus.
- Proficiency in Microsoft Office (Excel/Word) for reporting and office support.
- Business Acumen: Quoting experience is a huge advantage; understanding how to estimate time and material costs will set you apart.
- Versatility: A "can-do" attitude—willingness to help girls in the office, assist with purchasing, and fill in wherever needed while learning the companys unique processes.
- Communication: Strong verbal and written skills to bridge the gap between the shop floor and the front office.
