About The Position

Integrity is actively recruiting a CNC Lathe Leader to join our expanding team! The CNC Lathe Leader will provide technical leadership and operational oversight for a high-precision turning department. This role is responsible for managing a sophisticated equipment fleet—including multi-axis lathes, a flagship mill-turn center, and integrated robotic cells—to produce a diverse range of 2D and 3D mold components. The CNC Lathe Leader will drive production efficiency through advanced Mastercam programming, mentorship of the machining team, and the optimization of automated manufacturing processes.

Requirements

Minimum 5+ years’ in a senior or lead role within a precision CNC environment
Advanced proficiency in Mastercam, specifically for turning and mill-turn environments
Proven experience with B-axis milling heads, sub-spindle transfers, and lower turret synchronization
Deep understanding of Y-axis functionality and the effective application of high-speed live tooling for secondary operations
Practical experience managing robotic loading interfaces (ABB/FlexLoader) and automated bar-feeding systems
Deep technical knowledge of mold component geometry and the precision requirements for automotive and industrial tooling
Ability to maximize “spindle-on” time through effective scheduling and automation
Ability to resolve complex programming or mechanical issues quickly to minimize downtime
Ability to collaborate effectively with design teams and senior management to ensure targets are met
Possess excellent verbal and written communication skills

Responsibilities

Lead the training and development of the CNC Lathe Department
Manage and optimize the department’s automated systems to ensure consistent production cycles and reduced downtime
Utilize Mastercam software to develop complex toolpaths for 2-axis, multi-axis, and mill-turn applications, maximizing the use of Y-axis and high-speed live tooling
Maximize the capabilities of the SMX and NLX platforms, ensuring proper tooling selection for high-torque turning and high-speed milling operations
Identify opportunities to reduce cycle times and improve setup repeatability through advanced tooling selection and modular workholding strategies (e.g. sub-spindle applications, custom jaws, or modular clamping)
