Build Precision That Powers Clean Energy

Imagine clocking in at Westinghouse in Newington, NH and beginning your shift by reviewing a new set of engineering prints. You confirm requirements in compliance with PP-09-01, plan your tooling strategy, and set up a CNC to cut high‑tolerance components that keep nuclear plants operating safely and reliably. Throughout your shift, you collaborate with engineers, CNC programmers, and fellow machinists—making measured G-code tweaks when qualified, verifying every critical dimension, and closing out your work area to 5S and criticality standards.

Role Overview

• Location: Newington, NH (100% Onsite)
• Shifts: 2nd (3:30 PM – Midnight) and 3rd (Midnight – 7AM)
• Pay: $35.00–$40.00 per hour (based on qualifications)
• Reporting to: Machine Shop Supervisor
• Union environment with a strong culture of teamwork and craftsmanship

A Day in the Life

You’ll rotate across advanced metal-removing and metal-forming equipment, set up machines and castings to tight tolerances, and produce parts that meet demanding nuclear quality, safety, and regulatory criteria. Between runs, you’ll verify dimensions with precision instruments, troubleshoot processes, and refine setups to improve repeatability and throughput. You’ll help keep the shop running efficiently by following 5S and housekeeping standards, and you’ll share insights with the team to continually raise the bar on safety and quality.

What You’ll Do
