Short-Run CNC Machining Specialist (Program Edit)

Job Description

Job Description

Build exceptional parts. Grow your craft.

Imagine walking into a clean, well-equipped shop where every setup brings a fresh challenge. One hour you’re dialing in a milling center; the next you’re turning a new material on a CNC lathe or finishing on a conventional grinder. If you thrive in a low-volume/high-mix environment and enjoy refining programs with engineering, you’ll feel at home here.

Your Impact

• Transform blueprints/job orders into precise parts by determining sequencing, feeds/speeds, fixtures, and depths of cut.
• Own your setups—fixtures, chucks, collets, jaws—and establish accurate startup dimensions multiple times per day.
• Run both conventional equipment (lathes, mills, grinders) and CNC lathes or milling centers across metals and nonmetals.
• Partner with programmers/engineering to edit CNC programs and drive continuous improvement.
• Assure quality using calibrated gauges; continuously monitor operations; deburr with bench tools.
• Support the team with other duties as assigned.

What You Bring

• 6–12 months of hands-on machining experience/training, or equivalent education and experience.
• Associate’s degree from a two-year college/technical school preferred.

Compensation & Benefits

• Competitive base pay
• $3.00 second shift premium
• Medical, dental, and vision plans
• 401(k) with company match
• Tuition reimbursement
• Vacation, personal time, and paid holidays
• Career advancement opportunities
