- Programmed parts for CNC milling with 5-axis movement using Autodesk Fusion 360- Designed part fixtures to overcome spatial restrictions and reduced manufacturing time by 30%- Minimized machining time on CNC manufacturing by analyzing CAM simulations to optimize tool changes, eliminate motion redundancies, and determine the most efficient tool paths- Reduced cost of in-house projects by 50% through switching prototyping to 3D printing, saving time in development and eliminating losses caused by utilizing machines for internal use versus customer work- Created machine setups for manufacturing by running tool and stock probing, setting tool and work offsets, and guided CNC operators through setup sheets for part manufacturing

- Operated a variety of CNC vertical mills and wire EDM machines daily including warm-up, basic maintenance, part and fixture setup, and production- Reduced machining time 15% per part by leveraging mechanical advantage in gripping part stock - Accomplished 100% of production targets with .5% scrapping rate compared to 1.5% for my peers- Interpreted GD&T drawings and ensured parts met a .005 inch tolerance in all dimensions
