Documentation: Keep simple, accurate logs of maintenance tasks and safety checks to ensure a safe workspace. What You'll Need: Eagerness to Learn: A self-motivated mindset and a genuine interest in CNC machining and defense technology. Mechanical Aptitude: Comfortable using basic hand tools and power tools; you likely enjoy taking things apart to see how they work. Reliability: A strong work ethic and the "extreme ownership" needed to manage the physical needs of the shop independently. Communication: Clear verbal communication and the ability to follow technical instructions accurately. Physical Readiness: Ability to perform hands-on work in a machine shop and manufacturing environment. Education/Experience: A high school diploma or equivalent; any exposure to trade schools, shop classes, or hobbyist mechanics is a major plus.
