• Reading drawings and working to tight tolerances and specifications
• Precision fitting, assembly, alignment and quality inspection of components

Precision machining. Technical expertise. Quality workmanship.

• Ongoing project pipeline
• Opportunity to mentor and develop junior machinists
• Long-term stability with a respected industry leader
