FANUC CNC Precision Machinist -- Milling, Turning & Boring

$35.2 per hour

Acme Machining

Job Description

Job Description

Step into a day on the floor

It’s 6:00 AM and you’re walking into a clean, safe shop where aerospace, defense, energy, mining, and transportation components take shape. You review the traveler, pull up the program on the FANUC control, and mount a forged workpiece. Offsets are dialed in, tools are verified, and the first cut sings. You hold tight GD&T callouts, chase surface finishes, and verify every feature with trusted gauges. Mid-morning, you’re toggling between two machines—one a 4-axis VMC, the other a horizontal—keeping cycle times tight and quality tighter. After lunch, a quick light setup and tooling change keeps production flowing. Before 4:30 PM, you’ve inspected parts to spec, documented conformance, and left your station spotless for tomorrow.

The role
  • Operate CNC milling, boring, and turning equipment using FANUC controls to produce precision components from castings and forgings.
  • Interpret blueprints, engineering drawings, work instructions, and specifications with confidence.
  • Perform basic setups, tooling changes, and process adjustments; run multiple machines as production requires.
  • Hold close tolerances and meet surface finish requirements consistently.
  • Inspect parts using precision measuring tools; verify conformance to customer and engineering requirements.
  • Follow all safety, quality, and manufacturing procedures; maintain a clean, organized work area.
  • Support production goals and assist with additional duties as needed.
Schedule

1st Shift — Monday–Friday, 6:00 AM–4:30 PM

What you bring Required
  • Ability to read, write, and communicate in English.
  • Strong blueprint reading and interpretation skills.
  • Capable of lifting and moving up to 50 lbs without assistance.
Preferred
  • 5+ years of CNC machining experience, formal training, or a combination.
  • Hands-on time with FANUC-controlled CNC machines.
  • Knowledge of machining techniques, tooling, light setups, and CNC operations.
  • Experience machining castings, forgings, and close-tolerance components.
  • Basic computer skills; willingness to work overtime as needed.
  • Strong attention to detail and pride in workmanship.
Your toolkit and tech

You’re comfortable with:

  • GD&T
  • CNC Tooling
