Job Description

Is this you?

• Comfortable taking a CNC job from blank table to first good part—solo?
• Fluent with offsets, workholding, tooling, and safe prove-outs?
• Confident inspecting first articles and making authorized tweaks to hit spec?
• Happy to run production after setup and troubleshoot routine issues on the fly?

If so, SIS, an EIS company in Canton, GA wants to meet you.

• Own end-to-end setups for mills, lathes, or routers (tooling, fixtures, workholding, offsets)
• Safely prove out approved programs; verify initial parts and obtain required approvals
• Operate during production runs; monitor quality, tool wear, and cycle reliability
• Make authorized parameter changes and simple at-machine program edits as needed
• Support operators, maintain setup documentation, and escalate complex issues to Production Lead, Operations Specialists, Engineering, Quality, or Maintenance

• Demonstrated CNC setup experience: independent setups, first-part verification, and production operation
• Strength in at least one machine family (mills, lathes, or routers)
• Ability to interpret blueprints and GD&T, CNC programs, and setup sheets
• Know-how in tooling, workholding, offsets, cutting parameters, precision measurement, and prove-out safety
• Clear communicator with practical troubleshooting skills and a team mindset

Haas and Smart mills and lathes; KOMO, Heian, and Homag routers. Plastics/composites experience is a plus; strong CNC skills in other materials translate well.

Since 1989, SIS has produced precision components from high-performance plastics, composites, and other non-metallics for power generation, aerospace and defense, medical equipment, and oil and gas. We support both prototype and production work, including electrical insulation and medical imaging applications.

• Second shift: 3:00 p.m.–1:30 a.m. (+ $1.50/hour shift differential)
• Open on both shifts; current hiring priority is second shift
• Weekend overtime currently available on Saturdays and Sundays depending on production needs

Step into a role where your setups directly influence throughput and quality. You’ll collaborate with seasoned technical teammates and develop toward more advanced troubleshooting and mentoring.

This position has no direct supervisory responsibilities.

• 401(k) match: 100% on your first 3% contributed, plus 50% on the next 3%
