Job Description

Job Description

Shape complex parts. Elevate your craft.

At Toolcraft Machining in Germantown, WI, we’re adding a second‑shift CNC pro who thrives on tight tolerances and challenging, low‑volume work. If you have deep setup experience and can switch seamlessly between a DMG MORI mill/turn and a CNC lathe or boring mill, you’ll fit right in.

  • Operate equipment including Doosan PUMA 1214, Toshiba 150, and Toshiba 200.
  • Read and apply blueprints, drawings, models, and routings to plan the sequence of operations and verify tolerances.
  • Define tooling and workholding; build secure setups with blocks, fixtures, and clamps.
  • Program at the control or load proven code; optimize speeds/feeds, depths, and angles during machining.
  • Track tool life, replace inserts, and tweak offsets to keep features within .002" or tighter per GD&T.
  • Perform in‑process and final inspections using precision metrology and gauges.
  • Maintain a clean, organized machine and work area daily.
Must‑haves
  • 5+ years of CNC setup and operation across turning, VMC, boring mill, and/or mill/turn platforms.
  • Proficiency in GD&T, blueprint interpretation, and G‑Code.
  • Ability to lift up to 50 lbs.
Nice‑to‑haves
  • Mastercam programming and editing experience.
  • Job‑shop background with low‑quantity, high‑complexity parts.
  • Experience with overhead cranes and hoists.
Compensation, shift, and benefits
  • Full‑time, 2nd Shift.
  • Sign‑On Bonus.
  • Shift Premium.
  • Benefits include Health, Dental, Vision; HSA; Life & Voluntary Life; 401(k) match + discretionary Profit Sharing; Short‑Term Disability; Paid Holidays; PTO.
Capabilities we look for
  • GD&T
  • CNC Tooling
  • CNC Programming
  • G‑Code
  • Precision Measurement & Hand Metrology
  • Advanced Inspection & Gauge Measurement
  • Aerospace Manufacturing
Compliance
  • Hourly – Non-Exempt

Toolcraft Machining, Inc. is an Equal Employment Opportunity Employer.

Ready to own the setup and the outcome? Apply to join our second‑shift team in Germantown, WI.
