Built for the Best Machinists

If you’re the machinist everyone turns to when things get complicated—this is your lane.

We’re hiring a true Master Machinist in CNC Turning who can take full ownership from print → process → production. This is a high-impact, high-autonomy role for someone who doesn’t wait for answers—you create them.

This is not a button-pushing position. It’s for someone who thrives on technical depth, precision, and solving real machining challenges.

What You’ll Own

  • Full lifecycle of new part introduction—from blueprint analysis to proven production

  • Interpret complex prints (GD&T / PMI) and determine optimal machining strategy

  • Program at the machine (Mazatrol & G-code), set up, prove out, and optimize

  • Modify tooling, bore jaws, and develop workholding solutions

  • Validate first-piece, adjust programs in real time, and establish repeatable standards

  • Troubleshoot machine, tooling, and process issues independently

  • Support multiple machines and teammates without sacrificing quality or output

Equipment & Technology

Work in a technically advanced environment featuring:

  • Multi-axis CNC lathes, twin spindle, and Swiss-style machines

  • Lights-out automation with robotic pick-and-place systems

  • Equipment from leading builders including Mazak, Okuma, Nakamura, Citizen, and Mori

Controls & Programming

  • Primary: Mazatrol (majority of machines)

  • Secondary: Fanuc & Mitsubishi (G & M Code)
    ?? Strong Mazatrol expertise is critical for success

What Sets You Apart

  • You can take a raw print and independently build a production-ready process

  • You program at the control, not just offline

  • You solve problems—you don’t pass them along

  • You’re highly skilled with precision inspection tools

  • You can manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced, high-expectation shop

Experience

  • 10–15 years in precision machining (turning-focused preferred)

  • 5–8 years of hands-on setup and programming

  • Extensive experience with Mazatrol and CNC turning platforms

Why This Opportunity

  • Work with advanced equipment and automation

  • High level of trust, autonomy, and technical ownership

  • Be part of a team that values skill, precision, and accountability

  • Opportunity to make a direct impact on process improvement and efficiency
