Job Description

Long-established, family-owned precision job shop in the Springfield, OH area. Small team with very long tenures, and many operators have been here for decades. Steady work, and layoffs are rare.

What you will do:

• Set up and run CNC mills (priority) or CNC lathes on Okuma machines
• Handle small batch, high mix work, typically 2, 4, or 6 pieces per job

• Comfortable making offsets and edits to existing programs
• Must pass a background check

Preferred:

• Okuma experience
• Job shop and high-mix background

Shift: First shift, 6:00 AM to 2:30 PM. Overtime is available and not forced, on weekdays or Saturdays.

Pay: $22 to $25 per hour, based on experience.

Start: Typically within 1 to 2 weeks of the first conversation.
