Job Description

### Become a Key Player as a Machinist Senior

You will operate and set up conventional and numerically controlled machining centers to produce tight-tolerance aerospace and precision components. Your work directly supports production, quality, and lean-improvement efforts on a 2nd shift schedule (1:45pm - 11:15pm, Mon–Fri) in an onsite manufacturing environment.

### Here's How You'll Make an Impact on the Team

- Set up and run multiple production machines, including CNC lathes and manual machines; perform cutting, shaping, deburring, drilling, reaming and rework as needed.

- Install and adjust cutting tools and fixtures; align and fasten work per established methods.

- Adjust feeds, speeds, and depths of cut to meet part quality and documentation requirements.

- Inspect parts using calipers, micrometers, height gauges, bore gauges, surface plates, and other precision measurement tools; perform in-process inspection and SPC activities.

- Maintain equipment cleanliness and accuracy; identify and implement lean improvements to increase productivity and reduce costs.

- Follow manufacturing documentation, complete required quality logs and travelers, and report nonconformances and equipment issues.

### Here's What You'll Need to Be Successful in This Role

- High school diploma or equivalent

- Minimum of 3 years of machining experience with CNC and manual machines.

- Ability to perform machine setups with limited guidance and work effectively in a team environment.

- Proficient reading and interpretation of blueprints and engineering specifications.

- Working knowledge of machine shop mathematics (may include trigonometry) and ability to apply lean concepts.

- Experience using precision inspection tools (calipers, micrometers, height gauges, bore gauges, comparators) and performing SPC.

- Familiarity with aerospace-level documentation and quality processes (e.g., FAI/AS9102) and comfort completing production paperwork.

- Willingness to work 2nd shift; open to overtime or weekend work if production requires.

### Here's What Else Might Help You Out

- Experience with CNC programming, G-code editing or creating programs from scratch.

- Experience with MAZAK controls and Y-axis machining.

- Experience machining aerospace materials (titanium, Inconel) and optimizing feeds/speeds for difficult materials.

- Familiarity with CMM inspection and GD&T.

### Pay Range

$30.00 - $35.00/hour depending on experience

2nd shift differential: +$2.00/hour (separate from base range)
