Essential Duties and Responsibilities

  • Act as the primary communicator between the Quality Lab and the Shop Floor. You must translate complex data into actionable feedback for Setup Technicians and Operators.
  • Assist Setup employees in troubleshooting "out-of-tolerance" conditions, helping to identify whether the issue is tool-related, thermal drift, or programming-based.
  • Lead brief "toolbox talks" or handoff meetings to ensure the incoming shift understands current quality trends or specific part sensitivities.
  • Train CNC Operators on how to use manual gauges and interpret blueprints, fostering a "Quality at the Source" mindset where everyone feels responsible for the part.
  • Approach quality issues with a "problem-solving" rather than "fault-finding" attitude to maintain high morale and trust between departments.
  • Participate in Kaizen events or team meetings to suggest process changes that reduce scrap and make the Machinists' jobs easier.

Experience, Qualifications, and Skills

  • 3+ years' experience in a CNC machining environment (specifically Swiss Turning preferred).
  • Expert ability to read complex engineering drawings and understand GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing).
  • Proficiency with Keyence vision systems, profilometers, hand tools and CMMs.
