Job Description

Step into the role

Picture your day beginning at a humming machining cell. You review a print, select the right cutters, and bring up your setup sheet. With fixtures dialed in and offsets verified, you run a first piece, measure every critical feature, make a smart tweak to tool wear, and watch a raw billet become a flawless component. You keep pace without sacrificing precision—because tight tolerances, safety, and efficiency are how you work.

What you'll handle
  • Set up and run CNC mills, lathes, and machining centers to produce precision parts.
  • Interpret blueprints, engineering drawings, and work instructions to plan each job.
  • Choose, install, and replace cutting tools; confirm proper tool paths and engagement.
  • Establish work and tool offsets; complete full machine setups.
  • Run first-article checks and perform thorough in-process inspections.
  • Measure features with calipers, micrometers, bore gauges, height gauges, and indicators.
  • Make program edits and dial in tool wear to hold dimensions.
  • Troubleshoot machining issues and suggest process improvements.
  • Consistently maintain tight tolerances while meeting production and quality goals.
  • Perform routine maintenance and keep the work area clean and organized.
  • Follow all safety procedures and quality requirements in a fast-paced environment.
Machines & technologies you'll use
  • CNC Mill (3–4 axis VMC)
  • CNC Lathe (2–4 axis)
What makes you a great fit

You’re experienced with prints, setups, tooling choices, and inspection methods. You thrive amid urgency without compromising accuracy, and you’re motivated by continuous improvement, safety, and producing parts you’re proud to sign your name to.
