CNC Machinist

Overview We’re hiring CNC Machinists for our precision machining and prototyping company. You’ll machine precision components used across energy, automotive, defense, and heavy industrial applications. The parts we produce go into systems ranging from jet turbines to steel mill infrastructure, so the work is varied, technical, and often mission-critical. This is a high-mix, low-volume environment built around short runs, new prints, prototypes, and custom fabrication, not standing at one machine running the same part every day. You’ll have the opportunity to run jobs from setup through first article and work across 3-, 4-, and 5-axis milling centers, conventional lathes and those with live tooling. What makes this role different: Consistent optional overtime available Opportunities on 1st and 2nd shift based on preference Own the job from setup to first article Interesting, high-mix, low-volume and prototyping work New and modern 3-, 4-, and 5-axis equipment Cross-training opportunities across departments and equipment Machine across energy, defense, automotive, and heavy industrial applications. Room for different experience levels Compensation $26 - $35 / hr (depending on experience) Shift differential on 2nd With optional overtime, make over $80k / yr Hiring on 1st and 2nd Shift Typically M - F schedules Relocation Relocation assistance available across Alabama and the SE Setups: Perform your own setups, including fixturing, tooling, and offsets. Blueprints: Read drawings and hold the tolerances they call out. G-Code: Read programs at the control to verify tooling and moves. Prototypes: Machine one-off and low-volume parts from new prints. First Articles: Inspect first parts before releasing the run. In-Process Checks: Measure dimensions with micrometers, calipers, and indicators. Tooling: Select, install, and replace cutting tools for each job. Troubleshooting: Diagnose finish, size, and tool-life problems at the machine. Qualifications Required CNC machining experience on mills or lathes Ability to read and work from blueprints Ability to measure with micrometers, calipers, indicators Consistent, reliable attendance and punctuality Preferred Fluency reading and editing g-code Ability to perform your own setups Experience on 4- and 5-axis mills Experience on Swiss-style lathes Experience with live-tooling lathes Experience in high-mix, low-volume shops Defense, energy, or automotive component experience #J-18808-Ljbffr laborup
