The posting

Here at The Exploration Company, we are building spacecraft for humanity.

[Version française plus bas]

You will be responsible for setting up, programming, and operating CNC lathes to manufacture critical aerospace components, including valve parts, pump components, and shafts.

Working from engineering drawings and manufacturing instructions, you will create and adjust programs directly at the machine, select tooling, prepare setups, and perform turning operations. You will machine materials such as stainless steel, aluminium, titanium, and Inconel, ensuring that parts meet dimensional and surface finish requirements.

The role focuses on hands-on machining and programming at the CNC control. English communication skills are expected for everyday exchanges with our international teams.

Your Responsibilities

- Create, modify, and optimise CNC turning programs directly at the machine.

- Set up CNC lathes, including workholding, cutting tools, and tool offsets.

- Perform turning operations independently, from initial setup through to finished parts.

- Select suitable cutting tools and machining parameters for each material and operation.

- Manufacture precision components to drawing specifications, including tight tolerances and surface finish requirements.

- Perform first-piece and in-process inspections using appropriate measuring equipment.

- Adjust programs, offsets, and cutting parameters to maintain quality throughout production.

- Use the band saw to prepare raw material when required.

- Follow manufacturing instructions and record inspection results to maintain traceability.

- Carry out first-level maintenance and keep machines and workstations clean and organised.

- Report machining issues and provide practical feedback to the workshop lead and engineering teams.

Your Profile

- Vocational or technical qualification in machining, or equivalent practical experience.

- Proven experience as a CNC turner, with the ability to set up machines and program directly at the CNC control.

- Proficiency in ISO/G-code and/or conversational programming.

- Ability to read engineering drawings and interpret dimensional tolerances, geometric tolerances, and surface finish requirements.

- Experience machining stainless steel, aluminium, titanium, or nickel-based alloys.

- Confidence using precision measuring instruments and checking your own work.

- Experience with driven tooling and Y-axis operations and mill turn would be an advantage.

- Autonomous, practical, and quality-focused, with careful attention to detail.

- Ability to communicate in English with colleagues from other teams.

Why You’ll Love Working With Us?

- A hands-on role with responsibility for your parts, from setup and programming through to final inspection.

- Direct involvement in manufacturing components for next-generation space vehicles and propulsion systems.

- A modern workshop producing varied and technically challenging parts.

- Opportunities to develop your machining skills within a growing manufacturing team.

- A multicultural, international team passionate about space exploration.

Vos missions

Vous serez chargé(e) de régler, programmer et conduire des tours à commande numérique pour fabriquer des composants aérospatiaux critiques, notamment des pièces de vannes, des composants de pompes et des arbres.

À partir de plans d’ingénierie et d’instructions de fabrication, vous créerez et ajusterez les programmes directement sur la machine, sélectionnerez l’outillage, préparerez les montages et réaliserez les opérations de tournage. Vous usinerez des matériaux tels que l’acier inoxydable, l’aluminium, le titane et l’Inconel, en veillant à ce que les pièces respectent les exigences dimensionnelles et d’état de surface.

Le poste est centré sur l’usinage et la programmation directement sur la commande numérique. Une bonne maîtrise de l’anglais est attendue pour les échanges quotidiens avec nos équipes internationales.

Vos responsabilités

- Créer, modifier et optimiser les programmes de tournage CN directement sur la machine.

- Régler les tours CN, y compris le montage de la pièce, les outils de coupe et les correcteurs d’outils.

- Réaliser les opérations de tournage de manière autonome, du réglage initial jusqu’à la pièce finie.

- Choisir les outils de coupe et les paramètres d’usinage adaptés à chaque matériau et à chaque opération.

- Fabriquer des pièces de précision conformément aux spécifications des plans, y compris des tolérances serrées et des exigences d’état de surface.

- Effectuer les contrôles de première pièce et en cours de production à l’aide des moyens de mesure appropriés.

- Ajuster les programmes, les correcteurs et les paramètres de coupe pour maintenir la qualité tout au long de la production.

- Utiliser la scie à ruban pour préparer la matière brute lorsque nécessaire.

- Suivre les instructions de fabrication et consigner les résultats de contrôle afin d’assurer la traçabilité.

- Réaliser la maintenance de premier niveau et maintenir les machines et les postes de travail propres et bien rangés.

- Signaler les problèmes d’usinage et partager des retours pratiques avec le responsable d’atelier et les équipes d’ingénierie.

Votre profil

- Formation professionnelle ou technique en usinage, ou expérience pratique équivalente.

- Expérience avérée en tant que tourneur CN, avec la capacité de régler les machines et de programmer directement sur la commande numérique.

- Maîtrise de la programmation ISO/code G et/ou de la programmation conversationnelle.

- Capacité à lire des plans d’ingénierie et à interpréter les tolérances dimensionnelles, les tolérances géométriques et les exigences d’état de surface.

- Expérience de l’usinage de l’acier inoxydable, de l’aluminium, du titane ou des alliages à base de nickel.

- Aisance dans l’utilisation d’instruments de mesure de précision et dans le contrôle de son propre travail.

- Une expérience des outils tournants, des opérations sur axe Y et du tournage-fraisage (mill-turn) serait un atout.

- Autonome, pragmatique et orienté(e) qualité, avec un grand sens du détail.

- Capacité à communiquer en anglais avec des collègues d’autres équipes.

Pourquoi vous allez adorer travailler avec nous ?

- Un poste très opérationnel, avec la responsabilité de vos pièces, du réglage et de la programmation jusqu’au contrôle final.

- Une implication directe dans la fabrication de composants pour les véhicules spatiaux et les systèmes de propulsion de nouvelle génération.

- Un atelier moderne produisant des pièces variées et techniquement exigeantes.

- Des opportunités de développer vos compétences en usinage au sein d’une équipe de fabrication en pleine croissance.

- Une équipe multiculturelle et internationale, passionnée par l’exploration spatiale.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
