CNC Machinist

Precision Machining | 3, 4 & 5-Axis

$27 - $35/hour 3rd Shift | Monday-Friday Full-Time | Direct Hire

The Opportunity

If you know CNC machining and want work that requires more than loading parts and pushing a button, this position is worth a look.

We are recruiting CNC Machinists for an established precision manufacturing operation producing complex, tight-tolerance components and large-format tooling.

You will work with 3-, 4-, and 5-axis CNC mills and lathes in a clean, temperature-controlled manufacturing environment.

This is a hands-on machining position. You will perform your own setups, make program adjustments, inspect your work, troubleshoot problems, and take responsibility for producing parts to specification.

What You'll Work On

• Set up and operate CNC mills and/or lathes

• Work with 3-, 4-, and 5-axis CNC equipment

• Machine precision components and large-format tooling

• Read engineering drawings, blueprints, and work instructions

• Apply GD&T requirements to machining and inspection

• Select tooling and adjust feeds and speeds

• Make CNC program and process adjustments as needed

• Perform in-process inspections using micrometers, calipers, height gauges, and other precision measuring equipment

• Maintain tooling and equipment associated with your machines

• Troubleshoot machining, tooling, dimensional, and production issues

What You Bring

• 2+ years of CNC machining experience

• Experience with CNC milling, turning, grinding, or a combination

• Hands-on machine setup experience

• Strong understanding of tooling, feeds, and speeds

• Ability to read engineering drawings and blueprints

• Working knowledge of GD&T

• Experience holding and verifying tight tolerances

• Experience using precision measuring and inspection equipment

• Strong machining troubleshooting skills

Experience That Will Get Our Attention

• 4-axis or 5-axis CNC machining

• Complex or tight-tolerance components

• Aerospace manufacturing

• Defense manufacturing

• Medical device manufacturing

• Tooling or die manufacturing

• Other high-precision machining environments

Schedule & Pay

3rd Shift Monday-Friday 11:00 PM-7:00 AM

$27-$35 per hour, based on experience.

Why It's Worth a Conversation

You will work with advanced CNC equipment and challenging parts in a clean, organized manufacturing environment.

More importantly, this is a machinist role where your skills matter.

You will set up your machines, make decisions, inspect your work, solve problems, and have ownership of the machining process.

If you have solid CNC fundamentals and want to continue developing your skills on more complex equipment and parts, we would like to talk with you.
