5-Axis CNC Machining Specialist

Morning starts on the production floor, blueprints in hand, standing beside a multi-axis Mazak. You review specifications, set up the machine, confirm work offsets, load tooling, and run the first piece. Precision instruments in hand, you verify every critical dimension before moving to a production run. As the day unfolds, you fine-tune G-code, troubleshoot a spindle alarm, partner with engineering to streamline cycles, document what you did and why, and close your shift with a spotless, safe workcell.
