## About the Role

* You have strong hands-on experience with CNC machines, machine building, or fabrication
 * You enjoy integrating mechanical, electrical, and electronic systems
 * You're comfortable reading drawings, schematics, and wiring diagrams
 * You like troubleshooting and improving real machines
 * You want your work to matter in a small, growing manufacturing team
 * You have ~5+ years of hands-on experience building, integrating, or troubleshooting CNC machines or automated equipment (technical degree or equivalent experience).

Experience with CNC machining, wiring, sensors, and control systems is important.

Experience with CAD/CAM, mechatronics, robotics, microcontrollers, or automation is a plus - but practical skill, problem-solving ability, and ownership matter just as much.

This role requires good manual dexterity, comfort working in various positions, and the ability to lift 50+ lbs.

## Description

You'll be deeply involved in the physical build and validation of our machines, including:

 * Integrating mechanical, electrical, and control components into CNC systems
 * Performing hands-on assembly, fabrication, cutting, and machining
 * Wiring line-level and low-voltage electrical systems, sensors, and control components
 * Reading and interpreting mechanical drawings, schematics, and wiring diagrams
 * Collaborating closely with engineers to refine designs and improve functionality
 * Conducting functional testing and quality checks on completed machines
 * Troubleshooting mechanical, electrical, and integration issues during assembly
 * Supporting prototype builds and production system improvements
 * Maintaining tools, equipment, and workspaces in an organized, safe manner
 * Following OSHA safety standards and company policies

This role is highly hands-on and focused on machine integration, build quality, and readiness for deployment.
