  • Machines & Tech: DMG Mori, Siemens controls.
What success looks like
  • Week 1-4: Master setups, prove-out runs, and process stabilization.
  • Month 2-3: Confidently edit and optimize existing programs with engineering input.
  • Month 6-12: Author full CNC programs and drive repeatable, scalable production.

Join a fast-scaling team that invests in people. We're elevating machinists into programmers-not simply filling seats.
