•
Collaborate with engineering to provide real-time DFM feedback and drive rapid iteration.
•
Occasionally work with LFAM 3D printers and get hands-on with hybrid manufacturing workflows.
•
Perform post-process and in-process inspection of molds, tooling, and final parts using standard metrology tools.

Ability to lift 50 lbs and stand for long periods of time.
Bonus Points: •
Background in aerospace, defense, or motorsport tooling and mold making.
•
Experience machining from complex or non-rectangular stock (e.g. foam blocks, prints, castings).

Comfortable with Siemens or HAAS controllers.
•
Past work in both R&D/prototype and production environments.
•
Exposure to 3D printers (any type), hybrid workflows, or additive-subtractive processes.
