Precision CNC Milling Specialist (3- & 5-Axis)

SB Tool Company
Shelby, MI Other
POSTED ON 10/21/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 11/19/2026
Your day as a Precision CNC Milling Specialist

You clock in, review a challenging print, and decide whether a 3-axis or 5-axis setup gets the job done best. You load fixtures, touch off tools, set work offsets, and fine-tune the controller. As the first chips fly, you’re already checking dimensions with calipers, micrometers, and dial indicators, making smart program edits and offset tweaks to hold tight tolerances. When the run is complete, you button up preventive maintenance and leave the area spotless for the next project.

What you’ll do
  • Independently set up, adjust, and operate 3-axis and 5-axis CNC milling machines
  • Interpret blueprints and engineering drawings to achieve exacting specifications
  • Enter offsets, edit G/M code at the controller, and make in-process adjustments
  • Verify dimensions during machining using calipers, micrometers, and dial indicators
  • Troubleshoot equipment and perform basic preventive maintenance
  • Keep a clean, organized, and safe work area
What you bring
  • 3 years of CNC milling experience on 3-axis and/or 5-axis equipment
  • Fluency in blueprint reading and working to tight tolerances
  • Strong shop math and exceptional attention to detail
  • Hands-on experience with Fanuc, Fidia C20, Siemens, Haas, or comparable controls
  • Working knowledge of CNC programming (G-code and M-code)

This is craftsmanship, not repetitive production work. If you want to machine parts that matter and take pride in the results, you’ll fit right in.
