Overview

We're hiring an experienced CNC Machinist to join a growing precision manufacturing team producing high-tolerance components for the aerospace, defense, energy, and industrial markets. If you enjoy challenging work, take pride in first-time quality, and want to work with advanced machining technology, this is an opportunity to grow your career in a shop that values craftsmanship and continuous improvement.

This is more than a production role. You'll own the machining process from setup through production, working on complex parts that require technical expertise, critical thinking, and attention to detail.

What You'll Do

• Set up CNC mills, lathes, and multi-axis machining centers from print to first-part approval
• Select tooling, workholding, and fixturing for a variety of materials and part geometries
• Edit CNC programs at the machine to optimize quality, cycle time, and tool performance
• Perform first article inspections and verify parts using precision measuring equipment
• Monitor production runs and make tooling or offset adjustments to maintain tight tolerances
• Interpret engineering drawings, GD&T, and customer specifications
• Troubleshoot machining challenges including chatter, tool wear, dimensional variation, and surface finish issues
• Support continuous improvement initiatives focused on quality, efficiency, and process capability
• Mentor less experienced operators and help build a strong machining team

What We're Looking For

• 5+ years of CNC machining experience with setup and program editing responsibilities
• Experience operating CNC mills, lathes, or multi-axis machining centers
• Ability to read engineering drawings and interpret GD&T
• Strong understanding of tooling, speeds and feeds, workholding, and machining strategy
• Experience using precision measuring equipment including micrometers, bore gauges, thread gauges, and CMMs
• Experience machining aluminum, stainless steel, titanium, Inconel, or other specialty alloys
• Self-motivated with strong troubleshooting skills and a commitment to producing quality work

Preferred Experience

• 5-axis machining or mill-turn experience
• CAM software exposure (Mastercam, Fusion 360, Hypermill, or similar)
• Aerospace, defense, or other high-precision manufacturing experience
• Experience supporting automated or lights-out machining environments

Why Join Us?

• Work on challenging, high-precision parts instead of repetitive production work
• Modern machining environment with continued investment in equipment and technology
• Opportunity to expand your technical skills across advanced machining platforms
• Join a growing operation with room for long-term career advancement
• Collaborative team where experienced machinists have a voice in improving processes and solving complex manufacturing challenges

If you're looking for a role where your machining expertise will be valued and your skills can continue to grow, we'd love to hear from you.

You should be proficient in:

• CNC Tooling
• CNC Programming
• CNC Machine Installation
• G-Code
• CNC Machine Setup & Changeover
• Aerospace Manufacturing
