Job description:

CNC Machinist (Large Lathe) – 2nd Shift | TOP PAY

Savannah, GA | Direct Hire or Temp-to-Hire
Only 2 Openings – High-Level Role

BIG PAY FOR BIG MACHINES

• $40–$41/hr during training (1st shift)
• $44–$45/hr after training
• +10% Shift Differential on 2nd shift

This is premium pay for machinists who can handle serious equipment and precision work.

Your Path to 2nd Shift

• First 90 Days: 1st Shift Training (Mon–Fri | 6:00 AM – 4:30 PM)
• After Training: 2nd Shift (4:00 PM – 2:30 AM)
• Fast-track option available if your experience proves it.

Build What Matters

Join a company that supports power generation and critical energy infrastructure across the country.

You won’t be making small parts — you’ll be machining massive, mission-critical components that keep industries running.

• Industry leader in heavy manufacturing
• Clean, high-tech, safety-first facility
• Strong culture of respect, teamwork, and accountability
• Real opportunity to build a career, not just work a job

What You’ll Be Doing

This is true machinist work — complex, challenging, and rewarding:

• Set up & operate large CNC lathes (110–220 ton machines)
• Machine large, complex components to tight tolerances
• Read and interpret advanced blueprints, GD&T, and specs
• Select tooling, fixtures, and machining strategy
• Dial in feeds & speeds for maximum efficiency + quality
• Perform precision inspections throughout the process
• Troubleshoot and solve problems independently
• Work closely with Engineering & Quality teams to deliver first-time-right results

If you love big iron, tight tolerances, and running your own machine — this is your lane.

What You Bring

• 5–7+ years CNC machining experience (heavy industrial preferred)
• Strong experience with large CNC lathes
• Proven ability to machine large parts with precision
• Advanced blueprint reading & GD&T expertise
• Experience with carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless & large forgings
• Independent, reliable, problem-solving mindset

Why This Role Stands Out

• Guaranteed pay bump after training
• Shift differential = more money in your pocket
• Long-term stability with a respected employer
• Training + tuition reimbursement
• Full benefits: medical, dental, vision, 401(k) match
• PTO, holidays, sick time
• Real advancement opportunities
