Why This Role Exists

This role exists because Freeform is scaling production of complex, high-precision metal parts.

Freeform’s autonomous metal 3D printing systems rely on world-class 5-axis CNC machining to deliver production-ready parts to aerospace, defense, and industrial customers.

  • Perform on-machine and manual deburring and finishing
  • Inspect parts using on-machine probing, micrometers, indicators, and thread gauges
  • Manage routine machine maintenance and cutting-fluid systems
  • Support process-improvement initiatives focused on throughput and efficiency
  • Collaborate with programmers and engineers to refine machining strategies

This is a hands-on machining role, not an operator-only position.

Preferred (Not Required):

  • Experience with DMG Mori machines
  • Familiarity with Siemens controls
  • CNC programming and fixture design experience
  • Experience machining metal 3D printed parts
  • NTMA machinist certification or equivalent training
  • Proficiency with CMMs and advanced inspection
  • Comfortable operating shop equipment (cranes, forklifts, etc.)

---

Materials You’ll Work With

  • Aluminum
  • Stainless Steel
  • Titanium
  • Inconel & nickel-based alloys

---

  • Stable production programs with real technical challenges
  • Competitive hourly pay plus equity ownership
  • Clean, organized, state-of-the-art facility
  • Free meals, flexibility, and a strong learning culture

This is a shop built for machinists who care about precision and progress.

---

Pay, Benefits & Schedule

Pay: $35 – $55/hour (DOE)
Top of range reserved for exceptional multi-axis and fixture experience

Benefits Include:

  • Significant pre-IPO stock option packages
  • 100% employer-paid Medical, Dental & Vision insurance
