Part Time Machine Operator Jobs in Ohio (NOW HIRING)

Machinist - Aerospace & Defense Manufacturing -Multi-Axis CNC | First & Second Shift | Industry-Leading 25% Night Shift Differential
You Make the Parts That Can't Fail.
Defense and aerospace components don't get a second chance - and the machinists who build them don't take shortcuts. At GTC, you'll run multi-axis CNC milling and turning machines to produce precision parts for customers who demand exactly what the blueprint calls for, every single time. If you take pride in your setups, your tolerances, and your work, this is the shop where that pride is earned and recognized.
And through our Ownership For All program, the parts you make here build more than a product - they build your future. Every eligible full-time employee receives an ownership stake in GTC. From day one, you're not just joining a team. You're becoming an owner. Your wins aren't just good for the company. They're good for you.
Your Schedule. Your Choice. Your Premium Pay.
We built our shifts around real life, not the other way around. Days start between 5 and 6 AM - 10-hour shifts that get you home while the day still has plenty left in it. Nights kick off at 5 PM and come loaded with our industry-leading 25% night shift differential. Pick Monday through Friday at 8 or 10 hours, or Monday through Thursday at 10 or 12 hours. More flexibility, more earning power, and a schedule you actually choose.
Retirees, you're welcome here too - part-time schedules on days or nights are available, with a benefits package included.
What You'll Do
You'll work from routed instructions, manufacturing process plans, blueprints, and verbal direction to machine parts of various materials to customer specifications on multi-axis CNC equipment. That means making setups with vises, angle plates, V-blocks, rotary tables, and super spacers - then milling, drilling, tapping, and reaming to produce machined parts with the geometry and finish the job demands.
You'll use precision measuring instruments - scales, dial calipers, thread gauges, indicators, and micrometers - to verify your work at every step. You'll tram in machine heads when applicable, amend G&M codes at the machine when adjustments are needed, deburr finished parts, and complete all required documentation accurately. When you're not running your primary assignment, you're looking for the next thing to do - because high productivity and eliminating waste aren't requests here, they're how you operate.
You'll work closely with supervision, quality control, and the tool crib, bringing a cooperative attitude and a genuine willingness to help the people around you succeed.
What You Bring
A high school diploma or GED is required, along with U.S. citizenship. Two years of vocational training in machine trades or equivalent CNC shop experience sets a strong foundation. You can read a blueprint, do the math a machinist needs - geometry, decimals, conversions - and you have the mechanical and spatial aptitude to translate a drawing into a finished part. Experience amending G&M code at the machine is a plus.
This is physically active work. You'll be on your feet for the duration of your shift, lifting and maneuvering parts up to 50 pounds, working in various positions around your machine, and operating safely in an environment with moving machinery, oils, coolants, and metal shavings. Fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and sharp visual acuity aren't optional - they're how the job gets done right.
Why GTC
Work that demands real skill and rewards people who have it. Aerospace and defense standards - AS9100, ISO - that make the work meaningful and the resume stronger. Flexible shifts with premium pay built in. A team-first culture where individual accountability and collective success go hand in hand. And through Ownership For All, a real stake in the company your hands help build every single day. From day one, you're not just a machinist here. You're an owner.
