The ideal candidate has experience with manual mills, manual lathes, Bridgeport-style equipment, machine setups, blueprint reading, and precision measuring tools .

Use calipers, micrometers, indicators, gauges, and other precision measuring tools
Make machine and tooling adjustments to maintain part quality and tolerances
Perform secondary machining and fabrication operations as required
Troubleshoot machining, tooling, and quality issues
Perform routine machine maintenance and minor repairs
Maintain tooling and keep the machine shop clean, organized, and safe
Complete assigned work according to production schedules and quality standards
Qualifications
3+ years of manual machining or related machine shop experience preferred
Hands-on experience setting up and operating manual mills and/or manual lathes
Bridgeport, vertical mill, knee mill, engine lathe, or similar equipment experience preferred
Strong understanding of machining fundamentals and machine setup
Ability to read and work from blueprints and technical drawings
Experience working with dimensions and tolerances
Proficient with micrometers, calipers, indicators, and other precision measuring equipment
Strong shop math and mechanical aptitude
Ability to troubleshoot problems and make adjustments independently
Strong attention to detail and commitment to producing quality work
Dependable attendance and ability to work independently
CNC machinists with strong hands-on manual machining and setup experience are also encouraged to apply.
Compensation
$25.00-$35.00 per hour, based on experience and machining skill level.
Candidates with strong manual setup experience, mill and lathe experience, blueprint reading ability, and advanced machining skills will be considered toward the higher end of the range.
If you're an experienced machinist who takes pride in setting up your own jobs, solving machining problems, and producing accurate parts, we encourage you to apply.
