Sets up multi-axis CNC lathes and mills to precise tolerances and machines fixtures, tools, and components to drawing specifications with limited supervision
Programs and operates multiple CNC machines and processes concurrently to meet production schedules and quality targets
Measures, inspects, and tests completed parts using precision instruments to detect defects and confirm conformance to specifications
Supports metalworking projects from planning and fabrication through assembly, inspection, and testing
Cleans and maintains machines, tools, and cutting equipment to sustain reliable production
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:
High school diploma or equivalency certificate
6+ years of experience on multi-axis lathes and mills or other CNC machines
PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:
1+ years of CNC programming experience
Experience operating drill presses, grinders, and related metalworking equipment
Experience using multi-axis CNC programming software such as Mastercam or Aspire
Experience using manual mills and lathes
Experience with open setup inspection, including manual inspection tools and coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) or other automated inspection equipment
Experience applying Lean manufacturing or Six Sigma practices in a production machining environment
ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS:
Standard hours for this position are 2:00 pm – 12:00 am
Must be available for overtime and weekends as the schedule varies depending on site operational needs; flexibility is required
Ability to perform job duties that require standing, kneeling, crouching, and twisting the upper body
Ability to lift up to 25lbs unassisted
Work performed in an environment requiring exposure to fumes, odors, and noise

SpaceX designs, manufactures and launches the world’s most advanced rockets and spacecraft. The company was founded in 2002 by Elon Musk to revolutionize space transportation, with the ultimate goal of making life multiplanetary.
SpaceX has gained worldwide attention for a series of historic milestones. It is the only private company ever to return a spacecraft from low-Earth orbit, which it first accomplished in December 2010. The company made history again in May 2012 when its Dragon spacecraft attached to the International Space Station, exchanged cargo payloads, and returned safely to Earth — a technically challenging feat previously accomplished only by governments. Since then Dragon has delivered cargo to and from the space station multiple times, providing regular cargo resupply missions for NASA.
