  • Continuously monitor machining operations and make real-time corrections to maintain quality.
  • Verify dimensions using precision measuring tools (calipers, micrometers, and more).
  • Keep the work area orderly and operate with a strong safety-first mindset.
  • Partner with teammates and communicate clearly to resolve production issues quickly.
  • Record production metrics and maintain accurate machine and maintenance logs.
