CNC Machinist

Stop Doing Boring Mass-Production. Start Building Custom Metal Work!

Are you tired of standing in front of a machine pushing the same green button on a 10,000-piece run?

We are currently recruiting a skilled CNC Machinist for a top-tier custom metal fabrication shop in Marietta. This company specializes in high-end architectural signage, custom dimensional branding, and structural metal art. Every job that hits your machine is unique, keeping your day fast-paced and your skills sharp.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Set Up & Machine: Operate flatbed CNC routers, fiber lasers, or plasma tables to cut non-ferrous and ferrous metals (aluminum, brass, stainless, and mild steel).

• Vector & CAM Prep: Import DXF, AI, and EPS files into CAM software (VCarve, EnRoute, Fusion 360, etc.) to set toolpaths, establish feeds/speeds, and maximize sheet nesting.

• Material Fixturing: Utilize vacuum systems, mechanical clamps, and custom work-holding methods to prevent chatter on thin sheet goods.

• Quality Inspection: Verify tight tolerances using calipers and shop prints, followed by deburring and prepping parts for paint, powder coat, or assembly.

What Makes You a Great Fit?

• 2+ years of hands-on experience running CNC cutting machinery in a sign, sheet metal, or custom manufacturing environment.

• strong understanding of CAM software, G-code, and feed/speed selection for cutting aluminum and brass.

• Ability to read scale shop drawings and vector file structures.

• A keen eye for quality—catching file discrepancies or material defects before running a cut.

What’s in It for You?

• Competitive Compensation: Top-market hourly rates based on your experience level.

• Comprehensive Benefits: Health, Dental, Vision, 401(k) matching, and generous Paid Time Off.

• Direct-Hire Security: Jump straight onto our client's permanent payroll with long-term stability.

• Modern Work Environment: Work in a clean, well-lit, fully equipped shop with high-performing machinery and a great team atmosphere.
