Essential Functions Take full, hands-on responsibility for assigned machining jobs from receipt of the order through completion of the finished, inspected part. Review the work order, 3D model, blueprint, engineering drawing, dimensions, tolerances, and GD&T requirements to understand the part requirements and plan the job. Independently determine the fastest practical and reliable method to manufacture the part, including machine selection, tooling, work holding, fixturing, machining sequence, and inspection requirements. Independently program, set up, prove out, and operate CNC mills and CNC lathes, making all necessary programming, tooling, offset, and process adjustments to complete the part. Perform manual machining operations when necessary to efficiently complete one-off, prototype, replacement, repair, tooling, and short-run parts. Perform first-piece, in-process, and final inspection using precision measuring equipment to verify parts meet applicable dimensional, tolerance, and quality requirements. Troubleshoot and correct programming, setup, tooling, dimensional, and machining issues to keep the job moving through completion with minimal delay. Respond to changing production priorities and move between jobs, machines, and processes as necessary to support urgent and quick-turn machining requirements. Coordinate directly with Engineering, Production, Quality, and CAD/CAM when clarification or technical support is required, while maintaining ownership of the job through completion. Complete required machining and inspection documentation and maintain machines, tooling, fixtures, measuring equipment, and work areas in a safe, clean, organized, and ready-to-use condition. Key expectations Take full, hands-on responsibility for assigned machining jobs from receipt of the order through planning, programming, setup, machining, inspection, troubleshooting, and completion of the finished part. Turnaround time is the primary responsibility of this position. The goal is not high-volume production, it's to rapidly produce the parts supporting our customers' needs when they are needed, with the required quality.

Qualifications:

Minimum 5 years of CNC programming and setup experience. Extensive hands-on CNC machining experience. Manual machining experience (manual mill and lathe) required. Demonstrated proficiency with both CNC milling and CNC turning. Demonstrated ability to take a part from print or requirement through completed machined component. Must be capable of independently programming CNC equipment. Must be capable of independently developing setups and selecting tooling and work holding. Strong blueprint reading and GD&T skills. Strong shop math skills. Strong knowledge of speeds and feeds, cutting tools, inserts, work holding, fixturing, offsets, and machining practices. Strong dimensional and machining problem-solving skills. Fanuc control experience or equivalent CNC control experience applicable to assigned equipment. Ability to use standard precision measuring and inspection equipment. Ability to work to English and metric dimensions. Ability to work independently with minimal supervision. Ability to rapidly change priorities based on manufacturing requirements. Quick-turn, prototype, one-off, repair, and short-run machining experience strongly preferred. Experience with Lean manufacturing principles and ISO quality systems preferred.

Non-Essential Functions:

Perform other duties as assigned by management.

Education:

Minimum of High School Diploma or equivalent. Technical education, apprenticeship training, CNC programming certification, machining certification, or equivalent advanced manufacturing training preferred.

Independent B-Shift Requirement:

The Rapid Response Machinist must perform the normal functions of this position - evaluating the requirement, programming, setting up, proving out, machining, inspecting, and delivering the finished part - without routine assistance from a supervisor, programmer, engineer, or A-Shift machinist. Problems should be escalated only when they exceed the employee's authority or technical capability, present a safety or equipment concern, or require additional engineering or quality direction.
