CNC Machinist

Job Summary:

We’re hiring skilled CNC Machinists to join a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility where you will own your production cell end-to-end. In this highly autonomous role, you will validate brand-new parts and custom work by programming directly into the console using G and M codes while also helping drive the quality production that supports critical industries across the nation.

You’ll take complete ownership of your production cell, driving the entire lifecycle of your parts—from initial G-code programming, complex setups, and first-article inspections to program refinements, robotics, light assembly, and final delivery.

Please note: To ensure our machinists are set up for success, the interview process will include a written G-code programming assessment.

Why Join Us?

• Clear Advancement: Structured, merit-based promotions with immediate pay bumps upon passing straightforward internal skill tests.
• Autonomy: Own your entire cell from start to finish and have the freedom to program, validate, and run your own custom parts.
• Modern Facility: Work in a clean, highly organized, and safe environment outfitted with state-of-the-art machinery.

Compensation

• $29.00 / hr starting base rate
• $31.00 / hr achieved within your first 1 to 2 months as soon as you pass the internal programming test.

Shifts

• 1st Shift: 7:00am – 3:30pm

Benefits

• Health, Dental, and Vision insurance
• 401(k) with company match
• Paid time off (PTO)
• Flexible spending account (FSA)
• Life insurance

Requirements

Responsibilities

• End-to-End Ownership: Run and operate CNC machinery, including mills, lathes, and robotics
• G-Code Programming: Write, load, and edit G-code and M-code programs from scratch directly at the machine console to validate new parts and special requests (No CAM/MasterCam is used or required).
• Technical Setup: Perform independent machine setups, change tools, jaws, and inserts, and teach or orient all tools to optimize accuracy.
• Precision Inspection: Verify that finished parts meet tight blueprint specifications using precision measuring instruments.
• Simultaneous Operations: Perform hands-on, light manual assembly (e.g., painting parts, inserting bearings or fittings) while your machines are actively running to maximize throughput.
• Troubleshooting: Make on-the-fly program changes and adjust tool offsets as necessary to maintain quality and efficiency.

• setup and basic programming.

Qualifications

Required

• Experience: Proven background in CNC machining, independently owning the setup, operation, and troubleshooting of your machine.
• Programming Mastery: Must be able to write G-code and M-code programs from scratch directly into the console (e.g., FANUC, Okuma, etc). Note: During the interview process, you will be handed a blueprint and expected to hand-write the G-code needed to make the part.
• Dual Competency: Demonstrated ability and experience running and programming on both mills and lathes.
• Blueprint Interpretation: Strong ability to read and interpret complex blueprints, sketches, and shop orders.
• Metrology: Proficiency with precision measuring tools, including micrometers, dial calipers, and telescope gauges.
• Team Player: A hands-on mentality with the willingness to jump into manual assembly and ancillary tasks during machine run cycles.

Preferred

• Advanced Machining: Experience with live tooling.
• Robotics: Familiarity with robotic loaders and welders, including
