Program and machine parts on modern CNC machining equipment, including lathes, mills and routers. Iterate and develop parts as projects progress, and participate in collaborative efforts to improve the design of parts and assemblies, as well as the method for manufacturing them.

- Perform daily and periodic maintenance on machines (fluid levels, chip clearing, etc.)
- Be accountable and on time; maintain clean and orderly workspace
- Work as a team member and maintain a scrutinous eye for ways that a part or a project could be improved (this is not simply button pushing or "turn off your brain" machining)
