Are you a CNC machinist who enjoys the technical side of machining more than running production?

Are you interested in a limited amount of travel?

KAAST Machine Tools is a machine tool and fabrication equipment manufacturer based in the greater Philadelphia area. We offer one of the most extensive new metalworking machinery lineups in North America and are one of the fastest growing machine tool manufacturers in the nation.

We are looking for a CNC Machine Technician to support our customers and equipment across our full line of CNC vertical machining centers and turning centers. This is a technical , field-support-focused role ideal for someone ready to move beyond repetitive machining and into a more dynamic, problem-solving career.

Tasks & Responsibilities

• Perform machine setup, installation, and commissioning
• Provide customer training on CNC equipment and controls
• Troubleshoot mechanical, electrical, and CNC-related issues
• Conduct machine demos (in-house and occasionally on-site)
• Support service calls and maintenance as needed
• Work with a variety of CNC machines rather than a single production job

What This Role Is (and isnt)

• A hands-on technical role with variety and problem-solving
• A mix of shop work, customer interaction, and light travel
• Ideal for machinists who want to grow into a broader technical career
• NOT a repetitive production machining position
• NOT a sit-at-the-machine-all-day role

Skills & Qualifications

• CNC machining experience (mills and/or lathes)
• Experience with Fanuc CNC controls
• Working knowledge of CAD/CAM software
• Strong mechanical aptitude and troubleshooting skills
• Electrical troubleshooting ability
• Willingness to travel occasionally (installations, service, trade shows)
• Experience servicing CNC equipment or multi-axis machining knowledge is a PLUS

This position is perfect for someone who wants to get off the production floor and use their machining knowledge in a more engaging, technical way. Youll work with a wide range of machines, solve real-world problems, and play a key role in helping customers succeed.
