Imagine This A turbine bearing needs a fast turnaround. You scan the route sheet, plan your workholding, mount a right‑angle head, touch off tools, and verify geometry on a 5‑axis VMC. The first‑article is close, but you see a chance to trim seconds with a smarter path. You edit the G‑code, note the change at the control, and confirm tolerances with micrometers and indicators. Later, you rig a heavy assembly under the crane and help a teammate debug a finish issue — all before lunch. If this sounds like your kind of day, you'll thrive at Pioneer Motor Bearing Company and our PMB Machine Works division. We're a 4th‑generation family company supporting power generation, defense, and aerospace. We hire people who care about their craft, communicate clearly, and never stop learning. Your Mission Set up CNC 5‑axis machines with correct tooling and offsets to manufacture/repair fluid film bearings, seals, and aerospace/defense parts. Turn blueprints, sketches, drawings, and verbal direction into precise parts — including jobs requiring right‑angle heads. Apply geometric and mathematical problem‑solving to plan setups and validate results. Keep your cell safe, tidy, and efficient while meeting quality and throughput goals. Measure precisely with dial calipers, micrometers, surface gauges, and indicators to maintain spec. Edit programs at the control to correct issues; document every change. Raise risks to quality, delivery, or customer needs early and offer solutions. Recommend program/tooling/setup improvements to reduce cycle time. Interpret complex technical drawings with confidence. Safely load/unload heavy parts using overhead cranes and proper rigging. What You Bring Fluent in 5‑axis setup and operation; journeyman capability ideal. Trade/technical education or 5 years related experience; or equivalent mix. Comfort reading company, customer, and governmental specifications/regulations. Hands‑on with DMG MORI, Okuma, Hyundai, Fanuc (and related) equipment. Clear, direct communication; able to present and respond to manager/team questions.

Applied math:

proportions, percentages, area, circumference, volume; algebra/geometry. Knowledge of manufacturing/repair for fluid film bearings. Understanding of cutting fluids, finishes, tolerances, turning, drilling, milling, and abrasive processes.
