Hi All,
I was hoping to get your advice on creating a resume,
I was with my previous employer for the past 11 years. During that time Year in and year out I was told that raises were a struggle, I accepted the word of management, and endeavored to do my part to increase profits. Long story short, I was handed a stack of work orders for the machine shop and included "MISTAKENLY" was a printout of the salary information for every employee for fiscal 2014. After seeing those numbers I had to leave, I resigned the next day.
This is what I have so far, it covers the last 17 years
Willing to relocate to: Colorado
Desired Job Type: Full-time
Authorized to work in the US for any employer
Add Experience
Work Experience
CNC Swiss set-up / Programmer
June 2004 to April 2015
Responsibilities
I set-up and programmed the Tsugami BW12 CNC Swiss, for both prototype parts and production runs.
I used Solid Works CAD on a daily basis to design new medical instruments
I worked with the manual machines when needed for prototype.
I was directly responsible for tooling up all of the machines, which included keeping up on modern machining techniques, and modern tooling.
Quality Assurance.
Accomplishments
I hired on as a CNC Machinist IN 2004 , this was to set up and program production runs on a Chucker type lathe with live tooling.
During the production runs, I taught myself how to use Auto Cad. Once I was proficient, I began working on new instrument designs, I then took those designs and prototyped them and eventually began production runs of the new instruments.
In 2008 we upgraded to the CNC Swiss Tsugami BW 12 , this machine was a hybrid with 5 40,000 rpm Spindles for Front and Side work. Once the Swiss was making production parts, I taught myself how to use Solid Works.
With the added capability of the Swiss combined with Solid Works for the design of new instruments, highly complex instruments were now being machined on a production level.
I stayed current with modern tooling and machining techniques in order to decrease tooling costs, and to increase production.
Skills Used
CNC programming
CNC-Swiss lathe programming and set-up
Auto Cad
Solid Works
Manual machining
CNC Machinist
February 1998 to June 2004
Responsibilities
I, programmed, set-up and designed and fabricated fixtures for the large 4 Axis Milling centers.
I was responsible for multiple machines and their operators.
From 1998 - 2003 I was the second shift supervisor, more of a got to guy because I still had to keep my line of machines running.
Accomplishments
When I hired on in 1998, the factory was running 24 hours a day in 2 shifts. When I left in 2004 the factory was making more machines per month running one shift of 4 ten hour days!
This was accomplished using the same machine tools. I re-designed all of the fixturing and upgraded the tooling on my line, once I had shown what could be done the other lines began following suit. This led to an overhaul of every aspect of production.
Skills Used
CNC Programming
Large part Fixture design and fabrication
Manual machining using , lathes, mills, and grinders.
