CNC/Manual Machinist

Orbitform

CNC/Manual Machinist

Got a knack for turning a raw block of metal into a precision part? At Orbitform, our CNC Machinists don't just push buttons, you own your area, program your own jobs, and take pride in parts that go into machines customers depend on. If you love the challenge of getting a part right down to the thousandth and you're ready to run the show in your corner of the shop, let's talk.

What You'll Do

  • Use standard gaging equipment and read prints like second nature
  • Own your assigned area, including training other machinists, quality, and managing your own work backlog
  • Program parts from scratch using MasterCAM, GibbsCAM, or similar, and machine our product complete
  • Drive quality control, adjust as needed to hit spec, and reject anything that doesn't make the cut
  • Give engineering, spares, or others a heads-up on WIP timing when they need it
  • Keep an eye on inventory levels and help area leaders schedule manufacturing runs
  • File and store your proven programs, special tooling, fixtures, and tooling sheets so the next job goes even smoother
  • Move between CNC Lathe, CNC Mill, Manual, and Tool Cell areas, versatility keeps things interesting
  • Partner with vendors to chase down continuous improvement, cut setup times, and speed up machining

What We're Looking For

  • Comfortable working independently, managing your own area, troubleshooting, and following Orbitform procedures
  • Journeyman Card, Technical Certificate, or 5+ years of on-the-job training
  • Ready for a hands-on shop environment with noise, coolant, and temperature swings, it comes with the territory
  • Ability to occasionally lift or move up to 50 lbs

Schedule

MondayThursday, 6:00 AM4:30 PM, 40 hours per week. Regular overtime and frequent weekend work. No overnight travel, some occasional local day travel may be necessary.

Benefits

  • Medical, Dental, and Vision insurance
  • Short-Term & Long-Term Disability
  • Life Insurance
  • Aflac
  • 10 Paid Holidays
  • Paid Time Off (PTO)

Why Orbitform?

We build machines that build things, and the precision parts you'll machine are what make them work. You'll get real ownership over your area, a team that respects the craft, and the kind of variety that keeps a machinist sharp. If you're the type who takes pride in a perfect part, you'll fit right in here.

Ready to run your own show on the floor? Apply today.
