What’s a typical day like?
A priority job hits the schedule with tight delivery requirements and complex tolerances.
You review the print, tooling, and setup strategy, then write and optimize the program. On the shop floor, you support the prove-out, fine-tune feeds and speeds, and help lock in a stable process.
Later, a department flags an issue with tool life. You adjust the program, improve efficiency, and reduce scrap.
The programs run clean, the shop stays productive, and the job ships on time.
Your work directly impacts quality, efficiency, and customer trust.
