Overview

We’re looking for a Machinist to join our aerospace shop. You’ll be running CNC equipment to make and repair close‑tolerance aircraft parts in an FAA‑regulated environment, so quality, safety, and paperwork matter. This isn’t hack‑and‑go work—parts need to be right, documented, and done by the book.

If you’re someone who takes pride in good parts, clean setups, and doing things the right way, you’ll fit in well here.

Responsibilities

· Set up and run CNC mills, lathes, and grinders

· Make and repair precision aerospace parts using CNC and some manual equipment

· Read blueprints, travelers, and work instructions

· Hold tight tolerances and pay attention to the details

· Change cutting tools and adjust feeds and speeds as needed

· Set up fixtures, tooling, and materials correctly and safely

· Inspect your own work using micrometers, calipers, pi tapes, depth gauges, etc.

· Fill out required inspection and production paperwork (FAA rules apply)

· Perform basic, routine machine maintenance

· Safely run overhead cranes when required

· Keep your area clean, organized, and safe

· Follow all safety, health, and environmental rules—no shortcuts

· Speak up and look for ways to work smarter and more efficiently

· Follow written, verbal, and diagram instructions

· Pitch in with other shop duties as needed

Requirements

· CNC machining experience (aerospace or regulated manufacturing is a big plus)

· Comfortable reading blueprints and understanding GD&T

· Solid math skills for measurements and tolerances

· Hands‑on with inspection tools and standard shop hand tools

· Able to work independently and manage your own setup and quality

· Reliable, detail‑oriented, and quality‑driven

· Able to read, write, and communicate clearly in English

· Team‑focused with a good attitude

· Willing to follow procedures and documentation requirements

· Works with integrity and professionalism—FAA expectations apply

Join us if you're eager to apply your machining expertise in a collaborative environment that values precision craftsmanship!
