About the role
Description
Build Precision. Eliminate Downtime. Drive Results. When a machine sits idle, production stops. When a setup is perfect, everything flows. We're looking for 1st &
3rd Shift CNC Setup Specialist
who knows the difference.
This isn't an operator position. It's a role for someone who enjoys the challenge of setting up machines, solving machining problems, reducing changeover time, and helping production hit its goals. You'll be the person the team relies on to keep quality high, downtime low, and production moving.
If you take pride in doing things right the first time and leaving every machine better than you found it, you'll fit right in at BCI.
What You'll Do
As our CNC Setup Specialist, you'll be the technical resource that keeps machining operations running efficiently throughout the night.
Your responsibilities will include:
Setting up CNC mills, lathes, and machining centers for production
Installing tooling, fixtures, and workholding
Setting tool and work offsets and verifying first-piece quality
Reading blueprints and interpreting GD&T requirements
Troubleshooting setup, tooling, and machining issues
Making offset and program adjustments to maintain quality
Reducing setup times while maintaining safe, repeatable processes
Supporting operators with technical issues and process improvements
Working closely with Quality and Production to resolve problems quickly
Identifying opportunities to improve productivity, quality, and efficiency
You're Probably a Great Fit If You...
Take ownership instead of waiting for someone else to solve the problem.
Enjoy dialing in a setup until every part is right.
Stay calm under pressure and think through problems logically.
Believe every setup can be faster, safer, and more repeatable.
Take pride in producing high-quality work.
Like working independently while being part of a team.
