Job description
What You'll Own
Get up to speed on the Mazak 5-axis horizontal machining centers and the Palletech robotic pallet system within your first 90 days, becoming the go-to resource on the floor for both.
Lead setup, adjust programs, and operate complex multi-axis CNC equipment; validate new programs through first runs and first-article inspections.
Serve as the primary point of contact for operators' day-to-day questions on setup, tooling, job routing, and troubleshooting; mentor Machinist I and II team members and help keep work moving efficiently on shift.
When no Supervisor or Manager is on shift, act as the floor's first point of contact for safety incidents and personnel concerns: ensure immediate safety steps are taken, document factual observations, and contact on-call leadership or HR right away. All investigation and disciplinary decisions stay with leadership.
Partner with Engineering and CNC programmers to reduce scrap, hold tight tolerances, and recommend design-for-manufacturing improvements; contribute to continuous improvement, lean, and 5S initiatives.
Note: Lead is a non-exempt, non-supervisory role. You set the tone on the floor through example, not authority.

Delva Tool & Machine is an AS9100 Rev D certified precision shop in Cinnaminson, NJ, producing aerospace and defense components.

Our floor runs two shifts on Vertical Mills, Lathes, Swiss Lathes, and Mazak 5-axis horizontals with robotic loaders and automated pallet systems. This is not a commodity job shop.

High School Diploma or GED, Trade/Vocational Certificate, Associate's Degree, or equivalent work experience.
Authorization to work on ITAR-controlled aerospace and defense components.
Nice-to-Have
Direct experience on Mazak 5-axis horizontal machining centers and/or Palletech automated pallet systems.
