CNC Machinist

$26 - $33 per hour

Laborup

We are hiring multiple CNC Machinists across junior and senior skill bands to support a high-mix, low-volume precision machining environment producing complex, tight-tolerance parts. We’re experiencing strong growth and scaling our machining team accordingly, building a balanced crew of developing talent and seasoned experts. You’ll find the best of both worlds here: the pace and variety of a job shop, paired with the stability, benefits, and progression of a well-run operation that rewards growth.

We're hiring on 1st shift and offer baked-in overtime

This is not a button-pushing role. Our machinists own work end-to-end, from setup through final inspection , and play a direct role in quality, delivery performance, and continuous improvement . If you have strong fundamentals, a genuine passion for machining, and the skill to prove it, we want to talk.

Compensation

  • Junior Machinist: $26 - 33 / hr
  • Senior Machinist: $33 - $45 / hr

Shifts

  • Monday - Thursday 6:00am - 4:30pm + Friday from 6am - noon

Consistent Overtime

  • 6+ hours / week baked into the schedule

Benefits

  • Medical, dental, vision
  • 401(k) with match
  • PTO

Depending on skill level, you will be responsible for:

  • Set up and operate CNC milling and turning centers in a precision, job-shop environment
  • Run work end-to-end: setup, run, inspect, and document results
  • Interpret complex blueprints, routings, and work instructions
  • Select tooling, establish offsets, and build effective workholding strategies
  • Perform manual measurement and inspection using micrometers, gauges, indicators, and other precision tools
  • Hold tight tolerances and own part quality from first piece through final run
  • Read and understand CNC programs; make edits and adjustments as required
  • Troubleshoot dimensional, tooling, and process issues to restore quality and throughput
  • Support setup of proven and unproven parts based on capability
  • Maintain a clean, safe, and organized work area
  • Participate in continuous improvement and process optimization efforts

Requirements

We are hiring for two primary profiles and will align level and pay to demonstrated capability.

Junior CNC Machinist: This profile is ideal for a machinist with strong fundamentals who is ready to take the next step.

You likely bring:

  • A few years of machining experience with the ability to run your own setups on medium-complexity parts
  • Experience on mills and/or lathes in a precision environment
  • Confidence using manual inspection tools (calipers, micrometers, indicators) and holding consistent tolerances
  • Ability to read programs , make small edits/offset changes, and calibrate or verify machine condition as needed
  • Strong coachability, ownership mindset, and a desire to grow into advanced setups and tighter tolerances

Senior CNC Machinist: This profile is for a true setup expert who can take on complex, tight-tolerance work, including parts the shop hasn’t seen before, and dial them in efficiently.

You likely bring:

  • 7+ years in precision machining (more is welcome)
  • Proven experience holding .0005” (5 tenths / ~13 microns) or tighter on critical features, with the ability to verify those tolerances manually
  • Strong ability to interpret complex technical drawings and apply GD&T (e.g., true position, parallelism, profile, concentricity, flatness, coaxiality)
  • Experience setting up multi-axis equipment (5-axis mills and/or mill-turn / multi-axis lathes)
  • Ability to fluently read G-code / M-code and efficiently edit programs to maintain quality and throughput
  • Background in high-setup environments (often 30%+ setup time ) and complex setups with 10+ tools (and potentially far more)
  • Experience setting up unproven parts and troubleshooting tooling/process/machine variables to achieve first-article success
  • Strong documentation habits, teamwork, communication, and an unwavering commitment to safety and craftsmanship

Benefits
