Job Description
Overview We're hiring Senior CNC Machinists for our precision medical and prototyping shop in St. George, UT. The work is high-mix, low-volume: complex prints, unproven prototype setups, and tight tolerances on large-format material. Parts run on large-format 5-axis CNC milling centers, and most jobs are new the first time you see them. Machinists here own the process end to end — blueprint interpretation, multi-axis setup, workholding, first article prove-out, and final inspection — and work directly with engineers on part design. 5-axis experience is preferred, not required. Why Join Us Own the whole part: Print through final inspection stays with one machinist.
