FrankCrum Staffing

Job Description

Build parts that carry missions forward

Join a quality-first team where precision isn’t optional—it’s the standard. As a Star Swiss CNC operator, you’ll craft components that meet stringent aerospace expectations and AS9100 practices while contributing to a shop culture defined by safety, craftsmanship, and continuous improvement.

Your impact

Set up and operate Star Swiss (sliding headstock) CNC lathes to produce repeatable, tight-tolerance components.
Translate engineering blueprints, GD&T, and job travelers into precise, efficient machining plans.
Verify quality at every stage using calipers, micrometers, indicators, and gauges; complete in-process and final inspections.
Hold demanding tolerances and refine tool/work offsets to keep processes centered and stable.
Identify potential machining or quality issues early and communicate them to the right stakeholders.
Model safety procedures and strengthen a safety-first culture on the floor.
Maintain an orderly, efficient work area to support flow and reliability.
Collaborate with quality, engineering, and production to troubleshoot and elevate results.

What sets you up for success

Advanced blueprint reading (required), with strong GD&T fluency.
Hands-on proficiency with metrology tools—calipers, micrometers, indicators, gauges.
Meticulous attention to detail and a commitment to producing quality parts every time.
Experience on Swiss lathes preferred; confidence operating in precision machining environments with tight tolerances.

Physical capability

Standing for extended periods.
Lifting 35–50 lbs as required.
Bending, reaching, stooping, and crouching as needed.
Sharp visual acuity for close-tolerance inspection and reading prints.
Comfort working around noise, coolants, and moving equipment.

Grow with us

Safety is embedded in how we work.
Training, skill development, and career growth are part of the plan.
Stable opportunities with a respected precision manufacturer.
A culture where craftsmanship and quality truly matter.
