Role Overview
The CNC Swiss Machinist sets up and operates CNC Swiss machines to perform routine and repetitive machining operations.

  • Working knowledge of geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T).
  • Ability to read and work from engineering drawings.

  • Paid time off that grows with your tenure.

Beyond the Job
  • We give back: paid volunteer time and company-sponsored opportunities let our team support the causes they care about, on the clock.
  • We invest in the next generation: our annual Science, Technology, Engineering & Math (STEM) Day brings employees' children on-site to see what their parents build
  • We build responsibly: sustainability is part of how we operate. We plant trees for every actuator sold, and we recycle tens of thousands of pounds of aluminum, steel, and cardboard each year.
  • We make room for connection: company gatherings and other activities to bring the team together beyond day-to-day work.

  • Make a Real Impact: You won't be a cog in the machine here. With a small, agile team, your work will be seen, valued, and have a direct impact on the business.

  • Supportive Environment: Whether it's learning a new tool or exploring a fresh idea, we encourage curiosity and continuous growth.
  • Stability and Innovation: We've been around for decades, but we're always pushing forward, with digital at the center of how we evolve.
  • Grow Your Career: A smaller company does not mean a smaller career. Tolomatic has a long history of growing people from within, promoting into new roles, funding degrees and certifications, and giving curious people room to take on more.

Compensation
$25.00-$37.00/hour, plus a $1.50/hour shift premium for second shift. Signing bonus of up to $6,000 is available, depending on shift.
