• Machine components from HY-80, HY-100, stainless steel, Inconel, and other submarine-grade alloys
• Read and execute work from complex blueprints, GD&T callouts, and technical documents
• Inspect and document measurements using micrometers, calipers, height gauges, and indicators to meet Navy quality standards

Required Qualifications

• High School Diploma/GED
• 2+ years machining complex submarine, aerospace, defense, nuclear, or similarly critical components
• Demonstrated CNC programming proficiency (lathe and mill)
• Ability to perform full setup, edit existing programs, and apply offsets
• Ability to read and interpret complex blueprints, drawings, and GD&T
• Working knowledge of shop math and basic trigonometry for layout
