Join a manufacturing team in Aberdeen, NC where your expertise with CNC equipment turns raw material into precision parts. Picture your shift: you review work orders and blueprints, set up fixtures and tooling, load material, and launch CNC programs. Throughout the run, you keep a close eye on machine behavior, monitor tooling wear, verify critical dimensions with calipers, micrometers, gauges, and tape measures, and make smart offset or basic tool changes to keep quality on target. You close the loop by documenting production and inspection results, tidying your area, and handing off cleanly to the next run.
