CNC Machinist/ Grinder Operator - 1st Shift

$24 - $32 per hour

Crucial Link Group

Job Description

Crucial Link is hiring in 44130 for a DIRECT HIRE opportunity as a CNC Machinist / Grinder Operator.

Must be willing to submit to a nationwide background check and a pre-employment drug test. All qualified candidates will be considered, regardless of Criminal History.

CNC Machinist / Grinder Operator

Location: Greater Cleveland / Lorain County, OH
Shift: 1st Shift – 6am – 5pm (FLEXIBLE 8 hour shift within that window)
Pay: $24–$32+/hour (based on experience)

About the Role

We're looking for a hands-on CNC machinist with real shop floor experience. You'll set up and operate multi-axis lathes, mills, and grinding equipment while maintaining tight tolerances and high-quality standards. This role suits someone who takes ownership of their work, troubleshoots problems independently, and thrives in a production environment.

What You'll Do

Set up and operate CNC lathes, mills, and/or grinding machines (4-axis grinders, centerless grinders, Swiss-type, multi-turret lathes)
Perform tool changes, offsets, and minor program edits (feeds, speeds, wear adjustments)
Inspect your own parts using calipers, micrometers, bore gauges, height stands, and CMMs
Maintain accurate production records and quality documentation
Troubleshoot machine issues and make adjustments to keep production running
Follow safety protocols and contribute to a clean, organized shop (5S, Lean principles)
Support and assist less experienced operators as needed

What We're Looking For

Required:

3+ years of CNC machining experience (lathe, mill, or grinder)
Hands-on setup experience—not just button-pushing
Ability to read and interpret blueprints and GD&T
Proficiency with precision measuring instruments
Strong shop math skills (geometry, trigonometry, tolerance calculations)
Reliable, self-directed, and comfortable working independently

Preferred:

Experience with Fanuc controls
Familiarity with Doosan, DMG Mori, or similar equipment
Lead or supervisory experience
Background in tight-tolerance or exotic material machining
Forklift certification

Apply
