Job Description

Let’s Talk Precision — Gilberts, IL

Do you enjoy turning exact specifications into flawless parts? Do fast-paced days fly by when you’re dialing in setups and chasing microns? If so, you might be the Precision CNC Lathe & Mill Operator we’re looking for.

What you’ll handle
  • Setups from start to finish: alignment, calibration, tooling, and workholding
  • Reading and applying blueprints, technical drawings, and specifications
  • Live monitoring of runs; making offsets and adjustments to protect quality
  • Routine maintenance that keeps equipment in peak condition
  • In-process and final inspections to verify accuracy and spec adherence
  • Data entry and recordkeeping for traceable production history
  • Team collaboration to improve processes and throughput
  • Strict adherence to safety and housekeeping standards
You’ll be a match if you have
  • A high school diploma or equivalent (technical machining education preferred)
  • Proven experience operating CNC machinery
  • Comfort reading prints and technical documentation
  • Working knowledge of CNC machines, tooling, and related equipment
  • Ability to work solo and cooperatively with the team
  • Strong attention to detail and a practical approach to problem-solving
  • Basic computer skills for data capture and programming edits
  • Willingness to take on flexible hours and overtime as production requires
Why this role

Every day brings a new print, a new setup, and a new challenge. If you take pride in parts that pass inspection the first time and enjoy making processes better, you’ll thrive here.
