CNC Operator

At Closets by Design, a CNC Operator (often titled as a Machine Operator or Shop Technician) is responsible for manufacturing custom home organization systems, including closets, home offices, and garage cabinetry.

Maintenance: Perform routine cleaning and calibration of machinery, such as managing vacuum pumps and dust collection systems. Cross‑Functional Support: Rotate between various shop areas, which may include running an edgebander, table saw, or assisting with assembly and loading installers' trucks. Key Skills & Requirements Experience: Prior experience in custom woodworking or cabinet making (specifically 32mm systems) is highly preferred, though may offer paid training for motivated beginners. Physical Demands: Capability to stand for an 8‑hour shift and lift materials weighing between 45 and 50 lbs regularly. Technical Aptitude: Basic mathematical proficiency in algebra and geometry for adjusting machine offsets and interpreting technical drawings. Detail‑Oriented: Strong focus on quality to avoid material waste in a fast‑paced production environment.
