  • Ability to read prints, GD&T, and schematics
  • comfortable interpreting 3D CAD.
  • Experience with SolidWorks or similar is preferred.
  • Exposure to fabrication or prototyping is helpful (machining basics, 3D printing, laser cutting).
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office and comfort using data tools to support decisions.

Skills

  • Tempo: Demonstrated ability to meet rate and quality targets under time pressure while following SWIs and safety rules.
  • CAD literacy for simple fixture edits (SolidWorks or similar); ability to interpret 3D models.
  • Experience with heat treat/thermal processes, hardness checks, and distortion control (nice to have for our parts).
  • CMMS/MES and basic SPC; root-cause tools (5-Why, Ishikawa).
