CNC Machinist

Speed Machine LLC — LaGrange, GA Full-Time | $25–$38/hr, depending on experience

About Speed Machine LLC

Speed Machine LLC is a small, precision CNC machine shop based in LaGrange, GA. We are a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), SAM registered, and currently pursuing ISO 9001:2015 certification.

We produce precision production and prototype parts for customers in the aerospace, automotive, defense, and industrial sectors. Our work regularly holds tight tolerances, with some parts required to hold sub‐.001" tolerances.

The Role

We're looking for an experienced Machinist to join our small, close-knit team and hit the ground running. This is a hands-on shop where you'll be responsible for your own setups, programs, and quality — not just running a cycle someone else built.

Day-to-day, you'll be expected to:

  • Set up and run CNC mills and lathes (3 through 5-axis milling, CNC turning) for both production and prototype work
  • Program parts conversationally and/or using CAM software, and edit/optimize existing programs at the machine
  • Select and apply appropriate work holding and fixturing for a wide variety of jobs
  • Read and interpret blueprints, work orders, and GD&T callouts
  • Perform in-process and final inspection using basic measuring/inspection tools, holding tolerances to sub‐.001" where required
  • Troubleshoot and solve process, tooling, and fixturing problems independently
  • Adhere to and help support our quality control standards as we build out our ISO 9001-aligned quality system
  • Work independently with minimal supervision in a small shop environment

Requirements

Required:

  • Proven experience working as a machinist
  • Must be a U.S. citizen
  • Foundational knowledge of machining and machining processes: 3–5 axis milling, CNC programming (conversational and CAM), CNC turning, and production/prototype work
  • Working knowledge of work holding and fixturing
  • Strong independent problem-solving ability, including on complex issues
  • Proficiency with basic measuring/inspection tools

Preferred:

  • 5+ years of experience as a machinist
  • Technical or trade school education; a degree in a machining-related trade is a plus
  • Experience running Haas machines
  • Experience programming in Mastercam
  • Knowledge of building/designing fixtures

Pay & Benefits

  • $25.00–$38.00/hour, depending on experience
  • Health insurance
  • Dental insurance
  • Vision insurance
  • Paid time off / paid holidays
