lathes and a 3-axis mill that produce the same components day after day, month after month, and year after year. We are not a prototype shop. We are a production manufacturer. Success in this role means creating programs that consistently produce high-quality parts while reducing cycle times, improving tool life, minimizing operator intervention, and increasing overall shop efficiency. The work you do will establish machining processes that may remain in production for years. You'll have the opportunity to leave a lasting impact on how our parts are manufactured while helping shape the next generation of suspension, steering, and coilover products used on vehicles around the world. What You'll Be Programming At Rock Krawler Suspension, you'll be developing and refining the machining processes behind some of the most respected off-road suspension products in the industry. The components you'll work on span a wide range of complexity, including: Simple drill, tap, and profiling operations for steel suspension components Precision-machined control arm components Billet 7075 aluminum suspension products Adjustable suspension hardware and mounting systems Shock and coilover components requiring tight tolerances and complex machining strategies New product development projects that transition into long-term production One day you may be creating a straightforward production program for a steel control arm. The next, you could be optimizing multi-operation machining processes for a billet 7075 aluminum control arm or refining toolpaths for intricate shock and coilover components. The common thread is that every program is developed with production in mind—repeatability, quality, efficiency, and long-term reliability. What You'll Do Program and optimize multiple
