Key Responsibilities

Prototype & Pilot Lot Machining

• Set up and operate manual and CNC machines (mills lathes wire EDM etc.) to produce prototype and pilotlot components.
• Machine parts from engineering drawings 3D models sketches or verbal instructions in a lowvolume highvariation environment.
• Support rapid design iterations rework and engineering changes during prototype and pilot builds.

• Maintain dimensional accuracy and quality while working with evolving designs and limited documentation.
• Identify and resolve machining and manufacturability issues related to materials tooling tolerances and part geometry.

Engineering & Manufacturing Support

• Work directly with Design Engineers to clarify design intent and understand functional requirements.
• Provide practical designformanufacture feedback to improve machinability reduce risk and optimize parts for available equipment.
• Review drawings and models to highlight manufacturability concerns tolerance challenges and tool access limitations.
• Troubleshoot machiningrelated issues that impact assembly fit or function during prototype and pilot builds.

CrossFunctional Collaboration

• Work with Quality to inspect prototype and pilot components using precision measurement tools and ensure compliance with design requirements.
• Partner with Design Engineering to improve manufacturability assembly and testability of new components.
• Coordinate with Supply Chain to source prototype materials tooling and outsourced processes.
• Collaborate with inhouse manufacturing teams to schedule or execute processes requiring additional capabilities or capacity.
• Assist in coordinating prototype and pilot builds with external vendors when specialized machining or processing is required.

Documentation & Knowledge Transfer

• Capture lessons learned from prototype and pilot builds and communicate them to production teams.
• Support rootcause analysis and corrective actions for machiningrelated issues.
• Contribute to the transition from pilot to production including documentation of setups tooling and process notes.

Continuous Improvement

• Support lean manufacturing initiatives and continuous improvement projects related to new product introduction.
• Identify opportunities to improve machining methods setup efficiency cost quality delivery and safety.
• Maintain a clean organized and safe work area in compliance with shop safety standards.

Required Qualifications

• Strong ability to read and interpret engineering drawings GD&T and basic 3D models.
• Proficiency in manual and/or CNC machining including setup and operation.
• Experience machining a variety of materials (steel aluminum plastics etc.).
• Strong mechanical aptitude and problemsolving skills.
• Effective communication skills and ability to work collaboratively with engineering manufacturing and vendors.
• Ability to manage multiple prototype jobs and adapt to changing priorities.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience supporting prototype pilot or lowvolume manufacturing builds.
• Familiarity with CAD/CAM software (viewing or basic programming).
• Exposure to quality systems and inspection requirements.
• Experience with lean manufacturing or continuous improvement tools.

What Success Looks Like in This Role

• Prototype and pilot builds are completed on schedule with minimal disruption.
• Manufacturing issues are identified early and resolved before production launch.
• Products transition smoothly from design to fullscale manufacturing.
• Crossfunctional teams view this role as a trusted goto machining and manufacturability partner during new product development.
