CNC Mechanical Technician

This individual will split their time between the shop floor and light drafting support, contributing to both hands-on production and documentation accuracy. On the machining side, they will set up and operate CNC equipment, monitor machine performance throughout production runs, and make real-time adjustments to ensure parts meet strict quality and dimensional standards. On the drafting side, they will use AutoCAD to review, modify, and in some cases create technical drawings that support ongoing production needs. This is a fast-paced, precision-driven environment where attention to detail is non-negotiable — the parts produced here are used in defense applications, so quality and consistency are paramount. The ideal candidate is someone who takes pride in their craft, can troubleshoot issues independently, and thrives in a structured, team-oriented shop environment.
