Job Overview
Join our dynamic manufacturing team as a CNC Machinist and become a vital contributor to precision metalworking and component fabrication. In this role, you will operate, set up, and maintain CNC machines—including lathes and milling centers—ensuring high-quality production that meets strict specifications. Your expertise in CNC programming, machine setup, and measurement will drive efficiency and excellence in our manufacturing processes. This position offers an exciting opportunity to work with advanced machining tools and contribute to innovative projects in a fast-paced environment.
Responsibilities
- Operate CNC machines such as lathes, mills, and grinders to produce precision parts according to blueprints and technical drawings
- Set up CNC equipment by installing tooling, adjusting machine parameters, and verifying calibration using precision measurement instruments like calipers, micrometers, bore gauges, and coordinate measuring machines (CMM)
- Develop and modify CNC programs utilizing G-code, M-code, CAM programming software, Fanuc controls, or Mazatrol conversational programming to optimize machining processes
- Interpret mechanical blueprints and technical drawings accurately to ensure parts are machined to exact specifications
- Perform routine machine maintenance, troubleshooting, and adjustments to maintain optimal performance and prevent downtime
- Conduct quality inspections using precision measuring instruments to verify dimensions against specifications and ensure adherence to GD&T standards
- Support lean manufacturing initiatives by streamlining setup procedures, reducing waste, and improving workflow efficiency
Requirements
- Proven experience operating CNC machining centers such as CNC lathes and milling machines with a strong understanding of CNC G-code programming and Fanuc controls
- Proficiency in reading mechanical blueprints, technical drawings, and understanding GD&T symbols for precise measurement and quality control
- Knowledge of machining tools including grinders, hand tools, tooling setups, and manual machining techniques for secondary operations or troubleshooting
- Familiarity with CAD (Computer-Aided Design) software like SolidWorks or general blueprint reading skills for interpreting complex designs
- Ability to use precision measurement instruments such as calipers, micrometers, bore gauges, dial indicators, and coordinate measuring machines (CMM) for quality assurance
- Mechanical aptitude with a solid understanding of metal machining processes including CNC machining of plastics injection molding components when applicable
- Basic math skills for calculating dimensions, tolerances, feed rates, speeds, and other machine parameters
- Strong attention to detail with the ability to interpret mechanical blueprints accurately and perform precise measurements consistently
- Experience with electrical discharge machining (EDM), tooling selection, machine setup procedures, and basic troubleshooting is a plus
- Commitment to safety standards in a manufacturing environment while supporting continuous improvement initiatives like lean manufacturing
