    Job Description

    Advanced CNC Turning Technician

    Do you thrive on dialing in a setup, reading a blueprint like a roadmap, and watching a clean, consistent chip curl? Ready to take ownership on 2nd shift and help a growing team push quality to the next level—while earning a sign‑on bonus up to $5,000? If so, Durex Industries wants to meet you.

    What we are building

    We are expanding with new, state‑of‑the‑art CNC equipment and looking for a lathe expert who can set up, run, and continuously improve machining processes for precision components.

    What you will do

    1. Translate work orders, routers, and prints into reliable turning and milling operations.
    2. Set up close‑tolerance and conventional jobs: study drawings and samples, load CNC programs, install tools, and verify offsets.
    3. Run first articles; conduct operational checks and quality tests; verify parts with precision measuring tools.
    4. Document everything thoroughly—sign‑offs, forms, reports, logs, and electronic records.
    5. Tackle problems fast: troubleshoot equipment and processes, adjust tooling and code, and keep production on track.
    6. Contribute to training, workflow coordination, scheduling support, inventory and material management, and broader continuous improvement.
    7. Pitch in with additional tasks as assigned and model safety and quality in every action.

    Skills and experience

    • Proficient with calipers, micrometers, indicators, edge finders, and blueprint reading.
    • Experienced with CNC controls and cutting tools; capable of deburring and final handling to customer specifications.
    • Independent, organized, detail‑minded, safety and quality oriented; communicates well with peers, departments, and management.
    • Own your work: you take responsibility for decisions and their impact on others.

    Technical proficiencies

    • GD&T application on the floor.
    • Equipment troubleshooting and corrective actions.
    • CNC tooling strategies for accuracy, finish, and throughput.
    • CNC programming with G‑code and M‑code; confident with edits at the control.
    • CNC machine installation; understanding of machine geometry and alignment.
    • Setups and changeovers for production runs; precision measurement and hand metrology.
    • Strong lathe experience with complementary milling knowledge.

    Machines you will touch

    • CNC Mill (3–4 axis VMC): Haas, Okuma, Doosan.
    • CNC Mill (5+ axis VMC): Haas.
    • CNC Lathe (5+ axis): Okuma.
