Jobs at Chandler Industries

Develop and execute business development plans for precision manufacturing services. Identify prospects, build customer relationships, solicit RFQs, qualify opportunities, support pricing, communicate customer requirements, monitor competitors, maintain sales data in Epicor, and contribute to forecasts. The role requires outside sales experience with OEMs or tier-one suppliers, manufacturing expertise, strategic thinking, strong communication, and travel of up to 25%.

Set up, operate, and inspect CNC mills and lathes (including 5-axis machines) to produce complex parts to tight tolerances. Perform program transfers, tool offsets, setups, finishing, routine PM, material handling, and SPC-based quality checks. Support continuous improvement, 5S, Lean initiatives, and maintain safety and documentation.

Lead strategic sourcing and supplier commercial strategy for U.S. operations. Negotiate long-term agreements and stocking terms, manage supplier performance and scorecards, drive market intelligence and data-backed sourcing decisions, support pricing and buyer escalations, mitigate supply risk, and collaborate cross-functionally to optimize cost, continuity, and program profitability.

Create and maintain CNC programs from prototype to production using CAD/CAM. Develop fixtures, tooling, and processes; support NPI and engineering change activities. Provide technical support to machining operations, implement process improvements, perform cost and capacity analyses, and ensure quality through metrology and SPC methods.

Lead technical manufacturing initiatives for precision CNC machining, automation, tooling and process optimization. Drive new product introductions, fixture and workholding design, root-cause investigations, DFM with customers, and continuous improvement while mentoring engineers and establishing engineering standards.

Set up, operate, and verify quality of CNC turning (lathe), Swiss turning, and milling equipment to produce complex, tight-tolerance parts. Work in a team-oriented precision manufacturing environment supporting aerospace, defense, medical, and semiconductor customers. Multiple shifts available.

Lead daily CNC machining operations, develop supervisors and staff, manage NPI and equipment projects, drive lean continuous improvement, ensure quality and on-time delivery, and manage labor, capacity, and departmental budgets.

Lead new product introductions and continuous improvement for precision manufacturing. Develop methods, create BOMs/job routers, coordinate CNC/CAD/CAM, tooling, fixtures, testing, SPC/FMEA, and cross-functional problem solving to meet customer and quality standards.

Provide strategic oversight of production and materials planning across multiple product lines; own end-to-end planning, mitigate material risks, coordinate capacity planning and engineering changes, mentor planners, lead process improvement, and drive long-term inventory and scheduling improvements to meet customer and operational goals.
