You huddle with New Project Launch Engineers, review a launch plan, walk a machining cell, and spot two quick wins: a tooling change that trims cycle time on a Swiss-type lathe and a revised work instruction that boosts first-pass yield on a vertical machining center. Success in this role requires proven, practical experience with CNC machining processes, programming, tooling, setup, and process optimization across: Horizontal Machining Centers (HMCs).
