• Tool and process between 10 and 1,000 parts per day, depending on job requirements and production schedules.
• Load and unload parts into and out of machines safely and efficiently, using proper handling techniques.
• Perform general labor tasks associated with machine operation, similar to machinist work in a production environment.
• Conduct quality checks and hardening inspections on parts to verify they meet specifications and standards.

• Use basic mechanical aptitude to troubleshoot minor machine issues and assist with adjustments or simple maintenance as needed.
• Reference blueprints or schematics, when available, to better understand part requirements and machine setups

Additional Skills & Qualifications

• CNC machine experience is a plus but not required.
• Experience in environments similar to machining or metal treatment facilities is beneficial.
• Familiarity with blueprints or schematics is a nice-to-have and supports more accurate setups.
• Previous exposure to induction heating, heat treating, or hardening processes is advantageous.
• Experience completing production paperwork (PPW) or similar documentation is helpful.

Why Work Here?

The organization offers a supportive, small-team environment where you are recognized as an individual rather than a number. You will enjoy a strong culture that values independence, ownership, and growth, with rare weekend work supporting work-life balance. The benefits package includes medical, dental, and vision coverage, a 401(k) with company match, paid time off and vacation, and clear opportunities for advancement within the facility.

Work Environment

The role is based in a newer, Nadcap accredited vacuum carburizing and hardening facility located near a major interstate in an industrial park. The building features multi-chamber vacuum equipment, oil and gas quenching chambers, and both traditional and vacuum tempering furnaces. The environment is clean and well-lit, but can be very warm due to the furnaces operating inside the facility. You will work on a small team with ownership present in the building and will spend the majority of the day working independently. The position is on 3rd shift, and the facility culture allows you to wear headphones in one ear while tooling parts, provided safety guidelines are followed.
