  • Perform basic edits to G-code and M-code to ensure accurate machine operations
  • Conduct in-process inspections using precision measuring tools (micrometers, calipers, depth gauges, go/no-go gauges)
  • Verify part accuracy within tight tolerances (typically within 0.001" or as specified)
  • Perform routine machine maintenance and troubleshoot minor operational issues
  • Maintain a clean, organized, and safe work environment
  • Follow all OSHA and company safety protocols
  • Support additional production tasks as needed to meet business objectives

  • Proficiency with basic G-code and M-code for machine setup and adjustments
  • Ability to read and interpret complex mechanical drawings and GD&T specifications
  • Experience using precision measuring tools (micrometers, calipers, gauges, etc.)
  • Strong attention to detail and commitment to quality
  • Ability to stand for extended periods in a manufacturing environment
  • Ability to lift up to 50 lbs
  • Comfortable working around moving mechanical equipment and moderate noise levels
  • U.S. Citizenship at the time of hire

Nice-to-Have Skills
  • Technical certification or journey-worker status in machining
  • Advanced knowledge of GD&T and tight tolerance machining
  • Experience with troubleshooting CNC equipment

Who You Are
  • A detail-oriented machinist who prioritizes accuracy and precision
  • A hands-on problem solver who can troubleshoot minor machine issues
  • Quality-driven with a "measure twice, cut once" mindset
  • Safety-conscious and compliant with manufacturing standards
  • Reliable and disciplined in maintaining consistent production output

Additional Details
  • Pay Range: $26.83 - $36.77/hour + $2.00/hr 2 nd Shift Differential
  • Work Environment: Onsite at Cudahy, WI manufacturing facility
  • Health, Dental, and Vision (Standard PPO)
  • 12 Paid Holidays (after probation)
  • 2 Weeks Vacation (after probation)
  • 401(k) with up to 4% company match
  • $150/year safety shoe reimbursement
  • Group Life Insurance
  • Short-Term Disability
