Shape precision parts, grow your craft
If you bring curiosity, a strong work ethic, and a positive mindset, you’ll fit right in—whether you’re already an experienced machinist or actively building your skills.
Picture your shift—day, swing, or weekend—starting with a setup on a vertical, horizontal, or turning center. You verify your work instructions and prints, load tools and fixtures, dial in offsets, and make smart feed/speed tweaks. You measure, adjust, and communicate what you see. As parts run, you monitor tool wear, tackle defects, and keep the program owner and your supervisor in the loop. Along the way, you share tips with less experienced teammates.
Available shifts
- Day: 4x10 Mon–Thu, 4:30am–3:10pm
