Unisyn Precision Components

Step Into a Day on the Floor at Xactra Technologies For 43 years, Xactra Technologies has built custom, ultra‑precise mechanical components and assemblies for the optical industry. As a Multi‑Axis CNC Mill‑Turn Setup Operator, you’ll join a high‑performance team that values quality, speed, and continuous growth. We’re hiring for 1st and 2nd shift and offer competitive pay, weekly payroll, and clear advancement paths. What Your Day Looks Like Prepare and set up multi‑axis mill‑turns and vertical/horizontal machining centers for production. Load fixtures and blanks (or transfer in‑process parts) according to the job router and part‑specific operations. Verify dimensions using precision metrology—micrometers, calipers, indicators, and other hand tools—to ensure features meet spec. Track production, quality checks, and scrap on the router throughout your shift. Monitor coolant and oil levels to keep machines running at peak performance. Stop and escalate to your supervisor if a machine faults or dimensions drift outside tolerance. What You Bring Hands‑on CNC machining background in turning or milling. Ability to read and apply GD&T. Confidence with measurement tools and hand metrology. Experience working with Aluminum, Stainless Steel, Brass, and Plastics. Optical industry exposure is a plus, not a requirement. Core Proficiencies GD&T CNC Machine Setup & Changeover Precision Measurement & Hand Metrology Equipment You’ll Run CNC Mills: 3–4 axis VMC and 5+ axis VMC CNC Lathes: 2–4 axis and 5+ axis Why Xactra Weekly pay and competitive compensation 401(k) with up to 6% company match Medical (great coverage, low employee cost), Vision, Dental Company‑paid Short‑Term Disability and Life Insurance Long‑Term Disability available Paid holidays—no waiting period for holiday pay Paid sick leave and paid vacation Supportive culture with real advancement opportunities If you’re driven by precision and thrive in a fast‑moving, supportive environment, you’ll feel at home at Xactra. #J-18808-Ljbffr
