Two-person teams, self-supervised, often on the critical path of major shutdowns. You will need to become competent across the full machining toolkit (turning, milling, boring, drilling, line boring) on both manual and CNC machines, and competent with laser trackers and Faro arms for precision setting and surveying.On these types of projects and our bespoke ones, there can be plenty of surprises and things don't always go to plan. When they don't, that's when your engineering skills can be tested in trying to find a safe and workable solution to the issue faced. You will require to manage overall task delivery efficiency, complete site reports, deal with the customer, and navigate each site's own permits and protocols.
