• Support first-article builds and ensure smooth transition to production
• Troubleshoot machining issues and continuously improve cycle time, tool life, and process capability
• Maintain controlled CNC programs and shop-level procedures
• Build 3D models from blueprints to support programming and fixture design
• Partner with production, engineering, and quality teams to solve complex manufacturing challenges
• Present technical work to internal and external stakeholders
What You Bring

• 2-year Technical Diploma is preferred
• Industry-recognized CNC or machining certifications a plus
• Strong CAM 5-axis Mill programming experience, preferably using Siemens NX or GibbsCAM
• Deep knowledge of machining methods, materials, tooling, and process optimization
• Experience machining aerospace materials such as Nickel, Titanium, Stainless Steel, and Aluminum alloys
• Ability to interpret GD&T, engineering drawings, and manufacturing specifications
• Solid understanding of gas turbine manufacturing processes and 3D CAD modeling
• Experience with inspection methods such as CMM, laser/white-light scanning, and precision gages
• Familiarity with Siemens Sinumerik, FANUC, and Heidenhain controls, macro programming, and probing (a plus)
• Knowledge of FAA PMA and RS-DER requirements (preferred)
• Strong communication skills with the ability to collaborate across technical and non-technical teams
