* Read and interpret engineering drawings to create machine programs.
* Use CAM software to model cutting paths.
* Set machines for different materials and ensure quality output.
* Troubleshoot machining issues and carry out basic maintenance.
* Train colleagues on machine use and programming techniques.
What We’re Looking For:
* CNC setting experience in either milling or turning (programming ideal).
* Ability to read and interpret technical drawings.
* Strong attention to detail and problem-solving skills.
* Good communication and team-working abilities.
