Job Description
Overview We are hiring multiple CNC Machinists across junior and senior skill bands to support a high-mix, low-volume precision machining environment producing complex, tight-tolerance parts. We're experiencing strong growth and scaling our machining team accordingly, building a balanced crew of developing talent and seasoned experts. You'll find the best of both worlds here: the pace and variety of a job shop, paired with the stability, benefits, and progression of a well-run operation that rewards growth. We're hiring on every shift and offer consistent overtime to those who want it, but rarely required for those who don't. This is not a button-pushing role. Our machinists own work end-to-end, from setup through final inspection , and play a direct role in quality, delivery performance, and continuous improvement . If you have strong fundamentals, a genuine passion for machining, and the skill to prove it, we want to talk.

What brands of machines do you know? In what industries have you done machining or for what industries have you make parts? (i.e. aerospace, job shop, etc) Walk me through the most complex part you've personally set up from start to finish. What made it challenging? How comfortable are you reading and editing CNC programs at the machine? What kinds of edits do you typically make? Tell me about a time a part went bad or a setup didn't work. What happened and how did you troubleshoot it? What shifts are you comfortable with? (day, nights, weekend shifts, etc)Work Location:
