What is a precision machinist?

Precision machinists are skilled tradespeople who use machine tools such as lathes, milling machines, and grinders to create highly accurate metal parts and components. They read blueprints and technical drawings to set up machines and ensure parts meet exact specifications. Precision machinists are essential in industries like aerospace, automotive, and manufacturing where precise tolerances are critical for safety and performance.

What does a precision machinist do?

As a Precision Machinist, you'll commonly manufacture complex components for industries such as aerospace, automotive, medical devices, or manufacturing equipment. You'll often be responsible for interpreting blueprints, setting up and operating CNC machines, and ensuring that finished parts meet exact specifications. Collaboration is key—machinists regularly work with engineers, quality inspectors, and other machinists to solve production challenges and maintain high standards. This teamwork ensures that projects stay on schedule and that quality and safety protocols are consistently met.

What skills and qualifications are needed to be a precision machinist?

To thrive as a Precision Machinist, you need strong mechanical aptitude, mathematical proficiency, blueprint reading skills, and typically a vocational diploma or apprenticeship in machining. Familiarity with CNC machines, manual lathes and mills, precision measuring tools, and CAD/CAM software is essential, and certifications like NIMS can be advantageous. Attention to detail, problem-solving ability, and reliability are crucial soft skills that distinguish top performers in this role. These skills ensure the accurate production of complex components, uphold safety standards, and maintain the quality and efficiency demanded in manufacturing environments.

What is the difference between Precision Machinist vs CNC Machinist?

AspectPrecision MachinistCNC Machinist
CredentialsHigh school diploma, technical training, certifications in machiningHigh school diploma, technical training, CNC programming certifications
Work EnvironmentMachine shops, manufacturing plants, working with manual and CNC machinesManufacturing facilities, operating CNC machines, programming and setup
Industry UsageWidely used in aerospace, automotive, and industrial manufacturingCommon in high-volume production, aerospace, and precision parts manufacturing

Both Precision Machinists and CNC Machinists work in manufacturing environments, often with overlapping skills. Precision Machinists focus on manual and precision machining techniques, while CNC Machinists specialize in programming and operating CNC machines. Understanding these differences helps in choosing the right career path or job search focus.

What do precision machinists make?

Precision machinists manufacture highly accurate metal parts and components using tools like lathes, mills, and CNC machines. They produce parts for industries such as aerospace, medical devices, and automotive, often requiring detailed measurements and quality control. Strong technical skills and knowledge of machining processes are essential for this role.

CNC Machinist

Speed Machine LLC — LaGrange, GA Full-Time | $25–$38/hr, depending on experience

About Speed Machine LLC

Speed Machine LLC is a small, precision CNC machine shop based in LaGrange, GA. We are a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), SAM registered, and currently pursuing ISO 9001:2015 certification.

We produce precision production and prototype parts for customers in the aerospace, automotive, defense, and industrial sectors. Our work regularly holds tight tolerances, with some parts required to hold sub‐.001" tolerances.

The Role

We're looking for an experienced Machinist to join our small, close-knit team and hit the ground running. This is a hands-on shop where you'll be responsible for your own setups, programs, and quality — not just running a cycle someone else built.

Day-to-day, you'll be expected to:

  • Set up and run CNC mills and lathes (3 through 5-axis milling, CNC turning) for both production and prototype work
  • Program parts conversationally and/or using CAM software, and edit/optimize existing programs at the machine
  • Select and apply appropriate work holding and fixturing for a wide variety of jobs
  • Read and interpret blueprints, work orders, and GD&T callouts
  • Perform in-process and final inspection using basic measuring/inspection tools, holding tolerances to sub‐.001" where required
  • Troubleshoot and solve process, tooling, and fixturing problems independently
  • Adhere to and help support our quality control standards as we build out our ISO 9001-aligned quality system
  • Work independently with minimal supervision in a small shop environment

Requirements

Required:

  • Proven experience working as a machinist
  • Must be a U.S. citizen
  • Foundational knowledge of machining and machining processes: 3–5 axis milling, CNC programming (conversational and CAM), CNC turning, and production/prototype work
  • Working knowledge of work holding and fixturing
  • Strong independent problem-solving ability, including on complex issues
  • Proficiency with basic measuring/inspection tools

Preferred:

  • 5+ years of experience as a machinist
  • Technical or trade school education; a degree in a machining-related trade is a plus
  • Experience running Haas machines
  • Experience programming in Mastercam
  • Knowledge of building/designing fixtures

Pay & Benefits

  • $25.00–$38.00/hour, depending on experience
  • Health insurance
  • Dental insurance
  • Vision insurance
  • Paid time off / paid holidays
