Job Description

Job Description

Step into a weekend where precision meets purpose

Picture this: It’s Friday at 6:00 AM in a temperature-controlled shop. You load the first bar, verify your offsets, and bring a multi-axis mill‑turn to life. By Sunday evening, you’ve produced complex medical instruments and implants with repeatable accuracy—tracked in the ERP, verified by gauges, and ready for on‑time delivery.

Weekend Schedule & Premium
  • Friday – Sunday, 6:00 AM – 6:00 PM
  • 15% shift premium
  • Work 36 hours, get paid for 40 hours
How you’ll make an impact
  • Set up, operate, and maintain mill‑turn equipment, finishing tools, hand tools, and fixtures; perform deburring as required.
  • Own setups and changeovers, including CNC program debugging, tool changes, and parameter/offset adjustments.
  • Interpret blueprints, inspection check sheets, and work instructions with total accuracy.
  • Perform both in‑process and final inspection using calipers, micrometers, height stands/gages, comparators, and other precision metrology tools.
  • Use ERP and machine monitoring systems to manage work orders, track production, and log quality checks electronically.
  • Drive continuous improvement focused on quality, efficiency, and on‑time delivery.
What you’ll bring
  • High School Diploma or equivalent (advanced technical training preferred).
  • 3+ years in precision manufacturing; CNC mill‑turn experience strongly preferred.
  • Demonstrated skill setting up, troubleshooting, and running multi‑axis CNC equipment.
What you won’t experience here
  • Feeling stuck—there are meaningful opportunities to learn and advance.
  • Monotony—our product mix is diverse, so no two days look the same.
  • Being just a number—we’re a tight‑knit team that looks out for each other.
Who thrives in this role
  • A self‑starter who performs well in a fast‑paced environment.
  • A quick learner eager to deepen knowledge of manufacturing processes.
  • Dependable and understands the importance of being there when it counts.
  • Collaborative, positive, and open to taking on assignments with a team‑first mindset.
  • Capable of planning and executing work across teams.
  • Clear communicator—both written and verbal.
Rewards & benefits
  • Competitive pay and comprehensive benefits
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • Paid vacation and 10 observed paid holidays per year
  • Employer‑funded Basic Life and AD&D
  • Employer‑funded Short‑Term and Long‑Term Disability
  • Tuition reimbursement
  • 401(k) with company match
  • Generous employee referral bonus program
  • Growth in a thriving, performance‑based company that promotes from within
  • Temperature‑controlled work environment
  • Community involvement and giving back programs
  • Additional resources such as travel assistance and EAP
Core proficiencies
  • GD&T
  • Blueprint reading

  • CNC Mill (3–4 axis VMC)
  • CNC Lathe (2–4 axis)
  • CNC Swiss Lathe
