Precision CNC Setup & Production MachinistLocation: Crestwood, MOSchedule: Full-TimeCompensation: $20.00–$35.00 per hour, commensurate with experienceA day in your new roleIt’s the start of your shift in Crestwood. You pull the print, call up the program, and verify your offsets. You load the right tools, fixtures, and bar or billet, then make that first-piece inspection before the run kicks off. When the measurements check out, you let the cycle run and keep a close eye on surface finish, chip control, and tolerance. If something drifts, you dial in an offset, swap a tool, or make a minor on-machine edit to bring it back in spec. Throughout the day, you’ll move from setup to production, troubleshoot any quality or machining hiccups, and keep your work area organized and safe.Machines and processes you may touchCNC mills and CNC lathes (including HMCs and VMCs)Swiss-style CNC and screw machining (including Tsugami platforms)Multi-axis CNC equipmentSetup and changeovers, tool changes and offsetsOn-machine program editsHow you’ll executeSet up and operate CNC equipment to produce precision partsLoad programs, tooling, fixtures, and raw materialAdjust tool offsets and replace tools as neededRead and interpret blueprints and work instructionsUse micrometers, calipers, and gauges for first-piece and in-process inspectionHold required tolerances and verify parts meet specificationsTroubleshoot machining or quality issues and make minor edits at the controlMaintain a clean, orderly, and safe workstationWork independently once trained on jobs and equipmentWho thrives hereWe welcome a wide range of CNC backgrounds—from operators eager to grow into setups to seasoned setup machinists.
