Job description
Setup & CNC Machining
• Set up and operate CNC machines safely and efficiently (primarily Haas) per engineering drawings, work instructions, and customer/company requirements.
• Perform job setup: install and align workholding (vise/fixture/soft jaws/chuck), load tools, set tool length/radius offsets, set work offsets and verify correct program/revision.
• Support safe first-run execution using approved methods (dry-run, single block, reduced feeds) and ensure the process is stable before running production quantities.
• Prepare raw stock (cut to size as required) and secure materials correctly for stable machining.
Inspection & Quality
• Perform first-piece and in-process inspections using calipers, micrometers, and gauges to confirm conformance to drawing requirements.
• Record inspection results and complete traveler/route card documentation in English as required.
• Identify and escalate trends such as dimensional drift, burr issues, surface finish issues, and repeatability concerns.
• Follow documentation procedures for jig/fixture/program control and change managment.
Deburring / Edge Condition
Perform deburr and edge-break per work instruction and drawing requirements, ensuring no sharp edges, loose chips, or FOD risk, and that critical features are not altered.
Troubleshooting & Continuous Improvement
• Monitor machining performance (tool wear, chatter, finish, dimensional stability) and take corrective action within scope (offset adjustments, tool change, basic feeds/speeds adjustments) while following site rules.
• Provide feedback to CNC programmers/supervisors regarding program performance, tooling needs, fixture improvements, and manufacturability concerns.
• Machine Checks, Support Calibration Verification & Basic Maintenance (TPM)
• Perform routine machine checks/calibration verifications per site procedure (e.g., warm-up routines, probe/toolsetter function checks where applicable, basic repeatability/condition checks).
• Perform basic preventative maintenance (TPM): coolant level and concentration checks, chip management, cleaning, lubrication checks per checklist, and maintaining a safe/organized work area.
• Report alarms, unusual vibration/noise, coolant issues, and suspected machine accuracy problems immediately.
Design & Improvement of CNC Clamps/Fixtures
• Design simple CNC fixtures/clamps (2D sketches / basic CAD if available), select standard components (clamps, pins, bushings, stops), and manage fabrication requests through the approved process.
• Validate fixture designs through trial cuts and measurement, update designs based on results, and help standardize fixtures for repeat jobs.
• Ensure fixture concepts support safe tool access, rigidity, repeatability, and efficient setup; coordinate with Tooling/Engineering for complex fixtures.
General Expectations
• Handle raw material and finished parts carefully to prevent damage (scratches, dents).
But what else? (advantages, specificities, etc.)
Preferred Skills (Good to have):
• Some experience with Mazak machines and/or Fanuc controls.
• Exposure to 4-axis machining; 5-axis exposure is a plus.
• Aerospace manufacturing experience.
• Prior experience creating simple fixture sketches or improving work holding solutions.
Candidate skills & requirements
Education
Technical Diploma or equivalent preferred; vocational machining certification/training is a plus.
Experience: 4–5 years experience in CNC machining environment (operator-to-machinist progression acceptable).
• Must-have: Hands-on experience with Haas CNC milling machines (setup and operation). Additional experience with Mill-Turn is preferable
• Ability to read engineering drawings and follow work instructions; basic GD&T awareness is an advantage.
• Strong understanding of machining fundamentals: workholding basics, tooling, offsets, feeds/speeds fundamentals.
• Competent in measurement tools (calipers and micrometers; height gauge a plus).
• Language (Required): Basic English reading and writing to understand drawings/work instructions and complete machining/inspection records.
