CNC Machinist
About this role
Overview
We're hiring CNC Machinists for our machine shop.
You'll program, set up, and run CNC lathes and mills, entering zero and reference points, setting tool registers and offsets, and proving out part programs before the first piece runs.
You'll also run manual, conventional, and special-purpose machines. The shop math here runs to geometry and trigonometry, and when a print or setup doesn't add up, you confer with engineers and programmers to resolve it.
