CNC Machinist - Quantum Space

Dimensional Thinking

Job Description


Who We're Looking For


Quantum Space is redefining how spacecraft move and operate across LEO, GEO, and cislunar environments. We are looking for an experienced Assistant Machinist with 5+ years of CNC set-up and run experience to join our team.

This role is best suited for someone who values precision, efficiency, and craftsmanship, and who thrives in a collaborative, growth-focused environment. Rather than programming, the focus will be on executing and running programs developed by our team, ensuring high-quality results that support our mission.

Where You'll Make an Impact


- Set up and operate CNC machines to produce high-quality parts to specification.


- Collaborate closely with programmers to run existing code efficiently.


- Ensure quality standards are met through inspection and attention to detail.


- Maintain equipment and support a clean, safe, and efficient work environment.


- Bring a growth mindset and contribute to continuous improvement in machining processes.

What It Takes

  • 5+ years of CNC machine set-up and run experience.
    - Strong knowledge of machining processes and inspection techniques.
    - Ability to follow instructions and execute machining programs developed by others.
    - Attention to detail, reliability, and a proactive work ethic.
    - Desire and openness to grow skills, including the potential to learn programming.



Additional Requirements


- When not machining parts a willingness to assist in assembly and testing.

What You'll Get


- Opportunity to work in a supportive, growth-focused environment.


- Competitive rate, equity, and comprehensive benefits, including medical, dental, vision, generous leave, FSA, 401(k) matching, and equity sharing.


- Potential to expand into programming responsibilities depending on individual interest and outlook.


- A team committed to excellence, collaboration, and professional development.

To comply with U.S. Government space technology export regulations, including ITAR, applicants must be a U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident, protected individual per 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3), or eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State.


Apply now. Join us in leading the future of space exploration.
