Aerospace CNC Mill/Turn Specialist
$25 - $35 per hourTekPro Engineering
Aerospace & Precision Manufacturing | Downers Grove, IL
Step onto a shop floor where the parts you craft help keep aircraft flying. On our second shift, you’ll kick off your evening by loading programs, dialing in offsets, and running a first-article check before moving into steady production. You’ll read detailed blueprints, verify critical dimensions with precision instruments, and keep quality and throughput on target—all within a stable, union environment designed for long-term growth.
The Role & Schedule
- Position: CNC Machinist (2nd Shift)
- Pay: $25.00–$35.00 per hour plus a 10% shift differential
- Overtime: 10–15 hours available weekly
What You’ll Handle
- Set up and run CNC milling and/or turning centers for precision aerospace components
- Read and interpret blueprints, job travelers, and machining specifications
- Perform tooling changes, set tool lengths, and adjust wear/geometry offsets
- Conduct in-process inspections and document results to meet aerospace standards
- Meet daily quality and production goals while maintaining a clean, safe work area
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
- Union environment with clear paths for advancement
- Frequent opportunities for pay increases
- Stable aerospace workload and competitive compensation
- 10% shift differential and strong overtime availability
- Long-term career growth in a precision-focused setting
What You Bring
- Hands-on experience with CNC milling and/or turning
- CNC setup capability preferred (fixturing, tooling, first-piece)
- Ability to read blueprints and use precision measurement tools
- Strong attention to detail and commitment to quality
- Background in aerospace or precision manufacturing is a plus
