Swiss Machinist

$50k
Precision in Every Micron: Join Our Swiss Machining Team Are you a self-motivated machinist who thrives on solving complex problems? We are looking for a Swiss Machinist who wants to be more than just an operator. We are seeking a teammate who thinks for themselves, takes pride in their craftsmanship, and is looking to make a real impact within a specialized group.

You’ll be joining a tight-knit team of six expert Swiss Machinists managing a high-tech 22-machine center. Whether you are a Swiss specialist or a CNC pro ready to pivot, we provide the sophisticated equipment—including 2015 and 2019 Tsugami models—to help you do your best work.

Key Responsibilities
  • Planning & Setup: Study blueprints and job routers to determine requirements for materials and tooling.

  • Tooling & Programming: Select cutting tools and program controls to set speeds, depths, and feed rates using Fanuc G/M Code.

  • Quality Control: Inspect setup parts using calipers and micrometers to verify conformance with specifications and send samples to inspection.

  • Monitoring: Adjust machine controls and tool settings to keep dimensions within specified tolerances.

  • Finishing & Documentation: Clean parts for shipping and update work routers to improve re-order efficiency.

  • Maintenance: Keep equipment and work areas clean while performing preventative maintenance.

Required Knowledge & Skills
  • Technical Experience: Proven background in CNC programming and machining. While Swiss experience is a plus, we value general machining excellence and a willingness to learn our specific systems.

  • Software & Code: Proficiency in Fanuc G/M Code, PartMaker, and GibbsCAM.

  • Mathematics: Proficiency in adding, subtracting, multiplication, division, geometry, algebra, and trigonometry.

  • Technical Reading: Ability to read blueprints and understand geometric dimensioning and tolerance (GD&T) systems.

  • Measurement: Expert use of measuring devices such as calipers and micrometers.

Candidate Profile & "Nice-to-Haves"
  • The Right Fit: We are looking for a motivated employee looking to make a difference. You should be a team player with the ability to think for yourself and anticipate technical issues.

  • Advanced Tech: Experience with Automation, Robotics, or Omron machines is a significant plus.

  • Physical Stamina: Ability to maintain concentration over time and stand on the shop floor for the duration of your shift.
