Dental Technician, Manufacturing Finishing Specialist (3rd Shift) - Part Time

About the Role

The Dental Technician brings dental lab–level finishing expertise into a high-precision manufacturing environment. As part of the production CNC milling team, this position focuses on the post-milling finishing stage, using hand finishing, blending, contouring, and surface refinement techniques—not CNC machining—to ensure each component meets its final specification. This role applies the craftsmanship of a dental technician within a structured production workflow, serving as the critical bridge between machined parts and final product quality.

This is a part-time position, Monday through Friday.

• Perform precision finishing, blending, and surface refinement on small, high-tolerance components.
• Frequently handle and manipulate small components using a pinch or squeeze grip with the non-dominant hand across multiple production tasks.
• Operate small handheld power, impact, and vibratory tools with the dominant hand for brief durations, intermittently throughout the shift, to support product finishing and detailing.
• Perform technical tasks using foot pedal-operated handheld tools to assist with material preparation and processing.
• Perform maintenance activities for equipment according to procedures.
• Operate all secondary equipment as required (Furnace, Ultrasonic Cleaner, Sandblaster, etc.).
• Work as part of a team to improve manufacturing processes through Kaizen.
• Perform in-process inspection before hand-off to QC; may perform final QC as required.
• Identify and escalate issues such as quality concerns to direct manager and/or the correct function.
• Maintain safety policies and procedures, including 5S initiatives and housekeeping.
