Job description

Company Summary

We are an established precision manufacturing company based in Cincinnati, Ohio. Operating out of a modern facility, our team produces high-reliability custom components for commercial and industrial clients. We foster a collaborative, quality-focused shop environment that offers stable work, continuous skills development, and long-term career growth.

Job Summary

We are seeking a skilled Waterjet Programmer/Operator to join our production team in Cincinnati, OH. This dynamic, hands-on role combines machine setup and operation with basic CAD/CAM layout work to process high-precision parts. The ideal candidate will bring strong machining fundamentals, standard G-code or CAM software knowledge, and a team-first mindset to keep daily production running efficiently.

Key Responsibilities

  • Set up, program, and operate the Waterjet machine to process precision components within tight engineering tolerances.
  • Perform part alignment, work offset adjustments, tooling selection, and material loading on the shop floor.
  • Utilize basic 2D CAD/CAM software to review drawings, generate toolpaths, and optimize machining layouts for maximum efficiency.
  • Perform standard preventive maintenance, tooling care, and routine operational upkeep on assigned equipment.
  • Conduct quality inspections on finished parts using standard precision measuring tools (calipers, micrometers, gauges).
  • Collaborate with shop leadership and neighboring production teams to maintain steady workflow and resolve fabrication challenges.

Requirements

  • Direct experience programming, setting up, and operating Waterjet machines in a job-shop or manufacturing environment.
  • Practical ability to perform part layouts and make manual code or program adjustments at the machine control or workstation.
  • Strong blueprint reading skills and attention to dimensional detail.
  • Mechanical aptitude with a hands-on approach to routine machine care and minor troubleshooting.
  • Physical ability to work on an active shop floor, stand for extended periods, and lift up to 50 lbs.
  • Must be legally authorized to work in the United States.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Familiarity with 2D CAD/CAM drafting software (e.g., AutoCAD, SolidWorks, or generic CAM packages).
  • Experience operating diverse multi-axis machine platforms (mills, lathes, or advanced profile machinery).
  • Ability to work independently with minimal supervision from drawing to finished component.

Compensation & Logistics

  • Base Pay: $25.00 – $38.00 per hour depending on experience.
  • Shift & Schedule: Second Shift available on a 4x10 schedule (4 ten-hour days) with a 15% shift differential.
  • Overtime: Available based on production needs (currently averaging ~5 hours/week).
  • Benefits: Full corporate package including medical, dental, vision, 401(k) match, paid time off, and life insurance.

Location

Cincinnati, OH (On-site).
