Precision CNC–Laser Fabrication Technician (Tooling & Fixtures)

Ready to turn drawings into flawless parts?

If you read G-code like a second language, love dialing in fiber/CO2 laser parameters, and enjoy creating the jigs that make repeatability effortless, this role is for you. Robotic programming and integration experience is a major bonus.

You Will

• Set up and operate CNC machines and fiber and/or CO2 laser cutters to produce high-precision components.
• Interpret blueprints, technical drawings, and CAD files with confidence.
• Program and optimize toolpaths using G-code and CAD/CAM tools (Fusion 360, AutoCAD, SolidWorks, Mastercam).
• Adjust cutting parameters by material type and thickness to ensure quality and minimize waste.
• Design and fabricate custom holding tools, jigs, and fixtures that reduce setup time and enhance throughput.
• Collaborate closely with engineering and production to meet safety and performance standards.
• Support robotic programming/integration for automated material handling or secondary operations.
• Inspect parts with calipers, micrometers, and gauges to meet dimensional and surface finish specs.
• Document machine settings, programs, and maintenance; contribute ideas to continuous improvement.
• Perform routine maintenance and uphold a safe, efficient work area.
  
  

You Have

• High school diploma or equivalent (required); technical diploma or associate degree in machining, manufacturing, or mechatronics (preferred).
• At least 3 years of CNC and laser cutting machine operation and programming experience.
• Proficiency with CAD/CAM software and G-code.
• Deep understanding of mechanical drawings, tolerances, and materials.
• Proven ability to design and build tooling and fixtures.
• Familiarity with FANUC, ABB, or KUKA robotic systems is a plus.
• Strong problem-solving, attention to detail, and teamwork skills.
• Ability to thrive independently and with cross-functional teams in a fast-paced environment.
  
  

Where You'll Work

• Manufacturing floor environment with machinery, noise, exposure to natural elements, and metalworking processes.
• PPE is required at all times.
