Tool clearance and collision risk
Optimize machining strategies to reduce multiple setups through effective 4-axis indexing
Support frequent changeovers in a
high-mix, low-volume
environment
Collaborate with Manufacturing Engineering on fixture design, tooling, and program improvements
Train and support CNC Operators on safe operation and 4-axis best practices
-
You'll work hands-on with:
Machines:
HAAS CNC milling machines (3-axis & 4-axis)

Strong blueprint reading skills, including
advanced GD&T
(position, profile, concentricity, runout)
Proficiency editing G-code, including:
A-axis commands
Indexing logic
Program prove-out and safe start procedures
Strong understanding of precision measurement for multi-axis components
Preferred (Not Required)
Medical or dental manufacturing experience
Exposure to continuous improvement or process optimization work

— not just loading parts
Advanced
4-axis work
in a clean, regulated environment
High-mix, technical machining (no boring long-run production)
Stable, long-term work in medical manufacturing
Strong pay, shift differentials, and sign-on bonus
Opportunity to influence fixtures, processes, and machining strategy
