  • Knowledge of CNC machining, production processes, quality standards, and safety practices.
  • Someone who enjoys leading, motivating, and teaching others.
  • A problem-solver who can think on their feet and stay organized.
  • Clear and confident communication skills, both spoken and written.
  • Flexibility to adjust schedule or work overtime if production requires it.
