CNC Turning Specialist - Precision Components

$20 - $38 per hour

TekPro Engineering

Job Description

Job Description

Step Into a Precision Turning Role Built for Growth

Location: North Minneapolis Area
Industry: Aerospace & Medical Precision Manufacturing
Compensation: $20.00 – $38.00/hour + shift differentials
Hire Type: Direct hire via TekPro (partnered with leading manufacturers)

Imagine starting your shift in a brand-new, climate-controlled facility where robotics hum, pallets queue themselves, and complex aerospace and medical parts move seamlessly from station to station. You head to your CNC lathe, review the setup sheet, confirm tools and offsets, and begin dialing in tight tolerances on parts with intricate geometry. Throughout the day, you verify dimensions with micrometers and calipers, tweak offsets to perfect surface finishes, and collaborate with teammates who are just as invested in continuous improvement as you are.

What Your Day Looks Like
  • Own CNC lathe setups: prepare tools, set offsets, load programs, and run parts to spec.
  • Hold tight tolerances on complex components—think 1,000+ dimensions and exacting GD&T.
  • Inspect with precision gaging (calipers, micrometers) and document results.
  • Troubleshoot issues, refine processes, and sustain throughput across multiple machines when needed.
  • Support preventive maintenance, deburr and finish parts, and contribute to lean/CI activities.
Why You’ll Love This Shop
  • State-of-the-art, climate-controlled facility with advanced automation.
  • Consistent 10%+ annual growth and strong long-term stability.
  • Advanced equipment throughout the plant: 5-axis Matsuura machining centers and DMG automation systems integrated with robotics and pallet automation.
  • Culture centered on training, development, and continuous improvement—with overtime available for stronger earning potential.
Shifts & Differentials
  • 1st Shift: Mon–Thurs | 5:00 AM – 3:30 PM
  • 2nd Shift: Mon–Thurs | 3:30 PM – 2:00 AM (+10% diff )
  • Weekend Shift: Fri–Sun | 5:00 AM – 5:30 PM (+25% diff )
What You Bring
  • 2+ years of CNC machining experience with a focus on lathe/turning .
  • Proven ability to perform setups and run independently.
  • Comfort executing offsets, troubleshooting, and running multiple machines.
  • Strong blueprint reading and GD&T interpretation; meticulous inspection skills.
  • Comfort with tight tolerances and complex parts; aerospace/medical/high -precision experience preferred.

About the Opportunity: TekPro is a direct-hire recruiting firm partnered with a rapidly growing precision machining manufacturer in the north Minneapolis area. This team invests heavily in automation, 5-axis machining, and long-term employee development—so your skills compound here.

Ready to advance your turning career? Apply through TekPro today and join a high-tech environment built for makers who love precision.
