For this position, we are looking for a Manual machinist with 3 years of experience who can set up manually controlled machines (lathes, milling machines, grinding machines, jig borers, jig grinders, and hand tools), calculate dimensions and tolerances using mathematics, and apply knowledge of mechanics, shop mathematics, metal properties, layout, and machining procedures.
