- 100% paid healthcare: Company-paid medical coverage.
- Interesting work: High-mix, low-volume production with independent setups.
- Modern equipment: True 5-axis mills, horizontal machining centers, and DMG machines.
- Real training: 2+ month onboarding plus cross-training on additional equipment.
- Long-term stability: Growing medical manufacturer investing in people and production.
Compensation
- $75 - $85k / yr
