Precision CNC Setup Machinist -- Prototypes (Mazak/Doosan)

Job Description

A day in this role

You roll in, review the setup sheet, stage tooling, and bring a Mazak or Doosan mill/lathe online for a short-run or prototype job. You touch off tools, set work and tool offsets, run a first-article, and confirm the part meets blueprint specs to 0.0005" using indicators, calipers, and micrometers. You collaborate with experienced programmers and machinists, fine-tune G-code when needed, and suggest smarter ways to hit tolerance faster. Then you rinse and repeat for the next unique part—because variety is the norm here. What you'll handle
