Key Responsibilities
Troubleshoot, repair, and restore CNC machines and associated mechanical components to safe operating condition
Dismantle machinery, equipment, and components using appropriate hand and power tools (saws, files, reamers, wrenches, etc.) and precision measuring instruments
Inspect mechanical parts and assemblies to determine repairability, salvageability, or required replacement
Perform corrective maintenance and safety‑related repairs identified through audits, inspections, near‑miss investigations, and Safety Committee findings
Document completed repairs, corrective actions, and preventive maintenance activities in maintenance and safety tracking systems
Verify that repaired equipment meets operational, quality, and safety standards before returning machines to production
Identify recurring mechanical issues and safety hazards; recommend long‑term corrective solutions to reduce downtime and injury risk
Support lockout/tagout (LOTO), machine guarding, and workplace safety compliance initiatives
Collaborate with Manufacturing, Engineering, Quality, and Safety teams to improve equipment reliability and performance
Required Qualifications
5+ years of experience repairing and maintaining CNC machinery in a manufacturing environment
Strong mechanical aptitude with hands‑on experience using hand and power tools
Ability to read and interpret mechanical drawings, schematics, and technical documentation
Solid understanding of CNC machine components (spindles, bearings, ball screws, hydraulic/pneumatic systems, etc.)
Working knowledge of safety standards, LOTO procedures, and machine guarding requirements
Strong troubleshooting and problem‑solving skills
Ability to work independently and prioritize multiple tasks in a production setting
Effective communication and documentation skills
Preferred Qualifications
Experience supporting multi‑axis CNC machines (mills, lathes)
Familiarity with preventative and predictive maintenance programs
Experience in regulated manufacturing environments (defense, aerospace, firearms, medical devices)
Electrical troubleshooting knowledge (a plus, not required)
Physical And Work Environment Requirements This position is based in a manufacturing environment and may require the following over extended periods of time up to a full 8‑hour work shift (excluding lunch and breaks): stand, walk, sit, squat or bend, kneel and rise, lift, carry, push, or pull materials and equipment weighing up to — and occasionally exceeding — 50 pounds, view a computer or other digital screen, work on a computer, workstation or comparable system, and make accurate entries in such systems. Manual dexterity and fine motor skills are required for detailed assembly and precision work. Work may take place in areas with varying temperatures or no climate control, varying noise levels, and production equipment in motion. Proper personal protective equipment (PPE) must be worn in designated areas at all times as required by company policy. Reasonable accommodations may be available to enable individuals with disabilities but are always subject to safety concerns for the employee and all team members. Employer may require a physical assessment of the candidate’s ability to perform these tasks as a condition of an offer letter. Any assessment will be performed by a third party vendor and will be reported on a pass/fail basis with no other medical information conveyed to employer.
