CNC Machinist - Swing Shift

Job Description

If you’re just loading parts and hitting cycle start - this isn’t that job.

We’re looking for machinists who can actually set up, read prints, work with tooling, and take ownership of their work .


This is a hands-on role in a shop that values quality, problem-solving, and people who know what they’re doing.

Responsibilities:

• Set up and operate CNC and manual mills and lathes
• Read and interpret blueprints and GD&T
• Handle tooling, fixtures, and job setups
• Make program edits as needed (Mastercam is a plus)
• Perform inspection using micrometers, calipers, and gauges
• Maintain machines (coolant, oiling, general upkeep)
• Work with shop leadership to complete jobs on time and correctly

Requirements:

• 5+ years of machining experience
• Strong setup experience (not just operating)
• Experience with controls such as Fanuc, Mazak, Okuma, Haas, or Siemens
• Ability to read prints and understand tolerances
• Experience with lathes, mills, or multi-axis machining

Preferred (Nice to Have):

• 5-axis or multi-axis experience
• Mastercam or CNC programming exposure
• Experience with tight tolerance / complex parts
• Job shop or prototype experience

Why This Role:

• Not a production-only role - real involvement in setups and machining
• Opportunity to work on complex and varied parts
• Clean, organized shop
• Team-oriented environment
• Growth into programming and advanced machining
