We’re hiring skilled CNC Set Up Machinists to join a stable, growing manufacturing team. You will work with some of the best equipment in the region, with a shop floor featuring everything from multi-axis and 5-axis mills to mill-turn lathes, Swiss lathes, CNC precision grinders, and Wire EDM.

In this role, you will own the setup and operation of high-mix, low-volume production runs, machining complex parts to exacting tolerances.

Responsibilities:

  • Setup & Operation: Perform independent, from-scratch setups and operate a diverse range of advanced CNC equipment (including 3- to 5-axis mills, mill-turn lathes, Swiss lathes, precision grinders, or Wire EDM) in a high-mix, low-volume environment.
  • Precision Inspection: Perform first article inspections and continuous in-process monitoring using standard metrology tools (micrometers, calipers, gauges) to hold extremely tight tolerances.
  • Tooling & Offsets: Make precise tool offset adjustments, change tools as needed, and ensure all tools and gages are properly calibrated to maintain part accuracy.
  • Process Ownership: Read and interpret complex blueprints, technical drawings, and job orders to ensure all parts meet strict customer specifications.
  • Documentation: Follow established company procedures for tagging, inspection, and production documentation.
  • Maintenance & Safety: Maintain a clean, safe, and organized workstation, perform basic preventative machine maintenance, and adhere strictly to all safety and lean manufacturing policies.
