Job description

Shape precision parts. Build mission‑critical equipment.

Join Ingersoll Rand as a Precision CNC Machining Technician and help craft components that power blowers, pumps, boosters, and other rotating equipment used across transportation, manufacturing, wastewater treatment, and more.

A day in this role

You’ll start on 1st shift (Monday–Friday, 7:00 AM–3:30 PM) at our onsite, fully site‑based facility. Expect overtime and some weekends during demand spikes. Your day blends setup, machining, assembly, and problem‑solving with a focus on quality and safety.

What you’ll do
  • Set up and run lathes, mills, and related CNC equipment; choose and secure tools, fixtures, and materials to meet spec.
  • Use shop math and precision measurement (micrometers, calipers) to calculate dimensions and confirm tolerances.
  • Develop and improve Standard Work sheets so machining and assembly stay consistent and in‑tolerance.
  • Apply the 5 Why Process to get to root causes; partner with engineering and supervisors for technical guidance.
  • Assemble, align, and rebuild units per Standard Work and engineering documents; verify clearances, lubrication, and cooling.
  • Maintain equipment performance: read Bills of Material, rework damaged parts when feasible, clean and lubricate machines.
What you’ll bring
  • High School Diploma or GED.
  • 1+ years of experience in a manufacturing environment.
Preferred experience
  • 2+ years in assembly and/or CNC machining.
  • Blueprint fluency, including GD&T.
  • Able to calculate and enter offsets using basic math.
  • Physical ability to regularly walk and stand; use hands to finger, handle, or feel; reach with hands and arms; and talk or hear.
Core capabilities
  • Mechanical aptitude—machines, tools, use, and upkeep.
  • Production & processing—materials, workflows, quality, and cost awareness.
  • Mathematics—arithmetic and algebra for setups and checks.
  • Operation monitoring—watching gauges/dials to ensure proper function.
  • Quality control analysis—testing/inspecting parts and processes.
  • Operation & control—confident equipment/system operation.
  • Troubleshooting—identify issues and determine corrective actions.
  • Equipment maintenance—perform routine service.
Schedule, pay, and extras
  • Shift: 1st Shift, Monday–Friday, 7:00 AM–3:30 PM (overtime and some weekends).
  • Pay: Up to $20.68/hr with a guaranteed increase after 3 months.
  • Attendance: Perfect attendance bonus up to 2 additional days off and $1000.00.
Work arrangement
  • Onsite; fully site based.
Benefits that back you

We embrace personal ownership—of our company, communities, environment, health, and well‑being. Our benefits include medical and prescription coverage, dental and vision, wellness programs, life insurance, a robust 401(k), paid time off, and an employee stock grant, among other offerings.
