What are the responsibilities and job description for the CNC/Manual Milling Machinist — ACER Platform Specialist position at Smith Bros Tool?
A day in the shop
Your morning kicks off by tooling up an ACER mill, dialing in offsets, and running first-article parts. By midday, you might switch to a manual lathe to turn a critical feature, verify every dimension with calipers, micrometers, and dial indicators, then finish on the grinder. When a new job comes in, you review the blueprint, interpret GD&T, and choose the best setup across mills, lathes, saws, a boring mill, or a drill press to hit spec the first time.
What you'll do
Due to the nature of work performed within our facilities, U.S. citizenship or Valid Permanent Resident status is required.
