Are you a seasoned machinist who thrives on solving problems, improving processes, and sharing your knowledge with others? We’re looking for a Manufacturing Specialist to be the go-to resource for process and quality support on our production floor. In this role, you’ll work side-by-side with operators and machinists—troubleshooting non-conforming parts, digging into root causes, and driving corrective actions. You’ll also play a key role in training, mentoring, and equipping our production team with the skills they need to succeed. This is 3rd shift opening. The hours are Friday, Saturday, Sunday 6am - 6pm.

Requirements

• A proven track record in troubleshooting, problem-solving, and implementing lasting fixes.
• Strong experience training and developing others.
• Machining expertise, with programming knowledge and blueprint reading skills.
• Must be able to routinely work both in an office environment, sitting at a computer, as well as spend time going through the shop, bending, squatting, and climbing, while assisting personnel, inspecting work and machines and checking procedures.
• Corrected levels of vision and hearing are essential since problems and emergencies must be communicated through voice or visual signals.
• Climbing into or onto some machines is required to evaluate how a part is progressing.
• Inspection areas require moving of material and parts weighing up to 50 pounds.
• Parts must be lifted, pulled, pushed, and held in place without benefit of material handling devices due to limited space and confined areas in and around machines.

Responsibilities

• Inspect parts at the work-center when issues arise and identify the root cause.
• Implement corrective actions that prevent repeat problems.
• Provide hands-on technical assistance and training for machinists and operators.
• Use your machining experience to set up, troubleshoot, and improve equipment performance.
