Precision Machining: Execute complex machining operations, including turning, boring, threading, facing, and drilling to exact tolerances. [1, 2, 3]
Blueprint Reading: Interpret complex engineering drawings, blueprints, and technical specifications to determine the correct sequence of operations. [1, 2]
Shift Supervision: Lead the shift, delegate tasks to junior operators, and coordinate with production planners to meet daily and weekly output targets. [1, 2]

Quality Control

Inspection: Verify dimensions of machined steel parts using precision measuring instruments like micrometers, calipers, and gauges.
Defect Management: Identify and troubleshoot machining errors or out-of-tolerance parts, making immediate mechanical adjustments to correct issues. [1, 2]

Maintenance & Troubleshooting

Preventive Maintenance: Perform routine maintenance on lathe machinery, including cleaning, oiling, and replacing worn cutting tools to prevent rust and machine defects.
Troubleshooting: Diagnose and resolve mechanical or system issues, minimizing equipment downtime. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

Safety & Compliance

Protocol Enforcement: Enforce all safety policies, including the use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and safe heavy lifting procedures.

Education: Diploma or ITI in Mechanical Engineering, Machinist/Turner trade, or a relevant technical discipline. [1, 2]
Soft Skills: Strong leadership, shift management abilities, basic mathematical skills, and problem-solving aptitude. [1, 2, 3]

Physical Demands

Ability to lift heavy materials and components (up to \(100\text{ lbs}\) / \(45\text{ kg}\)).
Ability to stand for extended periods and work in a heavy industrial, potentially high-temperature steel mill environment. [1]

Could you tell me a bit more about the role? For instance:

Is the opening for manual engine lathes or CNC lathes?
What is the preferred educational background or minimum years of experience you are looking for?
What specific steel components will the operator be machining (e.g., shafts, rods, or pipes)? [1, 2, 3, 4]
