About the role

The role owns the business development and growth strategy for Fictiv's turning offering (CNC lathe production turning and Swiss-type sliding-headstock machining) within the CNC line of business. It is a highly cross-functional, matrixed role with no formal chain of command.

• Identify and pursue new turning demand from prototype through production, partnering with Sales and Marketing on customer segments such as Product Innovation accounts, Machine Builders and MRO.

• Serve as the internal subject-matter expert for turning and Swiss-type machining (DFM, tolerancing, workholding, threading, secondary operations, material machinability).
• Support production-turning opportunities end to end: scope requirements, validate feasibility and track programs against schedule.
• Establish and report turning metrics (bookings growth, transaction margin, quote-to-order conversion, autoquote coverage, on-time delivery).
• All employees are expected to maintain and contribute to the Quality Management System (QMS).

Required profile

• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Manufacturing or Industrial Engineering, Operations Management or a related field, or equivalent hands-on experience.

• Ability to travel about 40% of the year to support customers, manufacturing partners and regional operations.

Required skills

• Direct working knowledge of CNC lathe and Swiss-type turning technologies.
• Familiarity with production program management.
• Strong commercial instincts and excellent communication skills.
