CNC Machinist

• Set up and operate CNC lathes (HAAS primarily; some mills depending on cell)

• Perform full setups including tooling, offsets, and first-piece verification

• Adjust wear and geometry offsets to maintain tight tolerances during production

• Inspect in-process and finished parts using precision measuring tools

• Make minor program edits as needed (feeds, speeds, simple adjustments)

• Read and interpret blueprints and GD&T

• Follow work instructions, standard operating procedures, and ISO requirements

• Maintain tooling, fixtures, and a clean, organized work area

• Participate in shift meetings and update production metrics as required • Complete all quality documentation accurately

• 3–5 years of CNC machining experience, with strong CNC lathe background

• Ability to read blueprints and understand GD&T

• Proficiency with micrometers, calipers, bore gauges, height gauges, and other precision measuring tools

• Experience performing tool changes, offset adjustments, and basic setup work

• CNC certification required unless candidate has 5+ years of hands-on CNC experience

• HAAS machine experience strongly preferred • Basic computer skills for entering data into ERP, VDM boards, and quality logs

Work Environment This role operates in a retainer cell environment where parts repeat frequently and tolerances are tight. The work is steady and predictable, with a strong emphasis on precision and quality rather than speed or high-volume output.

Ideal Candidate Profile • Lathe-focused machinist with strong setup and inspection ownership • Detail-oriented and consistent • Comfortable working independently while communicating effectively • Proactive in identifying and correcting quality issues • Prefers repeat production and process-driven environments
