Milwaukee, WI

Pay: $23 to $28 per hour, depending on experience

If you're a CNC machinist who enjoys setting up machines, dialing in parts, and working in a clean, well-run shop, this is a solid opportunity. You'll work with modern CNC equipment, have consistent first-shift hours, and be trusted with hands-on machining work rather than just pushing buttons.

Perform milling, turning, and machining operations to print
Make offsets, tool changes, and minor program edits as needed
Read and interpret blueprints, technical drawings, and work instructions
Inspect finished parts using standard measuring tools to ensure quality
Troubleshoot machining or setup issues to keep production running smoothly
Maintain a clean, organized, and safety-focused work area
Communicate with leads and supervisors on production or quality concerns

What we're looking for

Required:

Hands-on experience with CNC lathes and/or mills
Comfortable with machine setup and part changeovers
Ability to read blueprints and understand machining tolerances
Strong attention to detail and quality
Mechanical aptitude and problem-solving skills
Ability to work independently and as part of a team

Preferred but not required:

Programming experience or the ability to make minor program edits
Experience with both small and large CNC equipment
High school diploma or equivalent

What you get

$23 to $28 per hour based on experience
Stable, full-time first shift
Opportunity to work with advanced CNC machinery
Supportive shop environment with long-term growth potential

Apply today if you're looking for a CNC role where your skills are valued and your workday is consistent.
