Résumé du poste

Job Juncture is seeking a Senior CNC Setup Machinist to lead complex setups on multi-axis mills and lathes in a precision aerospace/defense environment. You will own entire setup cycles, edit G-code, and collaborate with engineering on DFMs.

Expect a dynamic shop floor with premium overtime, a 5-year loyalty bonus, and full benefits. Candidates must have 3+ years independent CNC setup experience and ITAR compliance.

Qualifications

• 3+ years of independent CNC setup experience on HMC/VMC mills or multi-axis lathes, including G-code editing.
• Close-tolerance aerospace/defense or medical device background preferred.
• Hands-on with high-spec CNC machinery and industrial controls (Mori Seiki, Doosan, Fanuc).
• Strong feeds and speeds knowledge, tool wear analysis, and rigid workholding.
• U.S. Citizenship or Green Card holder required for ITAR regulations; daily commuting distance to Greater Green Bay, WI.

Responsabilités

• Lead complex, independent machine setups, fixture alignments, and zero-point adjustments on CNC HMC/VMC mills and multi-axis turning centers.
• Edit G-code and macro variables at the controller to optimize tool paths and cycles.
• Perform First-Article inspections with micrometers, calipers, bore gauges, height stands, and comparators.
• Maximize cell throughput by reducing bottlenecks and cycle times across active machines.
• Mentor junior operators and collaborate with engineering on tool paths and DFMs.
• Support lean initiatives and design-for-manufacturing reviews for new products.

Senior CNC Setup Machinist – Multi-Axis Mills & Lathes

Salary: $56,160 - $83,200 per year

Location: Brussels, WI

Posted: September 11 2026

Relocation Assistance: Not Available

Senior CNC Setup Machinist – Multi-Axis Mills & Lathes

• Compensation & Earnings: Baseline pay from $27.00 up to $40.00/hr scaling directly with setup and G-code depth, plus premium overtime eligibility, a 5-Year Deferred Loyalty Bonus, and full benefits.


• Early-Out Friday Schedule: 1st Shift: Monday – Thursday (6:00 AM – 3:30 PM) & Fridays (6:00 AM – 10:00 AM) for a built-in early jumpstart on every weekend!


• State-of-the-Art Facility: 100% climate-controlled, pristine manufacturing plant featuring a modern machine fleet (average equipment age under 3.5 years) and lights-out automation cells.


• Company Culture & Autonomy: Direct-hire position with a rapidly expanding, high-precision aerospace and defense manufacturer that respects setup specialists as true technical professionals—offering zero micromanagement and direct DFM collaboration.


• Strict Requirements: U.S. Citizenship or Permanent Residency (Green Card) required for ITAR defense contract compliance; 3+ years of independent CNC machine setup, tool path optimization, and controller-level G-code editing.

If you thrive on technical variety, shop floor autonomy, and advanced technology rather than running mindless, high-volume production, this direct-hire seat is built for you. Our client is a rapidly expanding, high-precision aerospace and defense manufacturer operating a clean, modern facility in the Greater Green Bay, WI area. In this senior setup role, you will own complex machine setups from start to finish, troubleshoot challenging part geometries, edit G-code at the controller, and collaborate directly with engineering on Design for Manufacturability (DFM) reviews. The organization celebrates high craftsmanship—offering an early 10:00 AM exit every Friday, direct investment through a unique 5-Year Deferred Loyalty Bonus, and modern equipment fleets.

What You Will Be Doing (Daily Responsibilities)

• Lead Complex Setups: Perform complex, independent machine setups, fixture alignments, and zero-point adjustments on CNC HMC/VMC mills and multi-axis turning centers.


• G-Code Optimization: Edit G-code and macro variables directly at the controller, optimizing tool paths and machine cycles for intricate aerospace and defense components.


• Precision First-Article Inspection: Conduct rigorous first-article inspections using micrometers, digital calipers, bore gauges, height stands, and optical comparators to verify tight-tolerance features.


• Optimize Cell Throughput: Maximize workflow efficiency across active machine stations to eliminate bottlenecking and reduce cycle times.


• Floor Mentorship & Leadership: Mentor and train junior operators, troubleshooting floor setups and helping upskill production team members.


• Engineering Collaboration: Partner with engineering on tool path optimizations, lean manufacturing initiatives, and DFM reviews for new product introductions.

What We Are Looking For (Requirements & Qualifications)

• Setup & G-Code Depth: 3+ years of independent CNC setup experience on HMC/VMC mills or multi-axis lathes, including direct experience editing G-code at the controller.


• Precision Manufacturing Background: Proven track record in close-tolerance machining environments (Aerospace, Defense, or Medical Device preferred).


• Equipment & Controls Depth: Hands-on experience with high-spec CNC machinery and industrial controls (e.g., Mori Seiki, Doosan, Fanuc).


• Advanced Tooling Literacy: Strong understanding of feeds and speeds, insert selection, tool wear analysis, and rigid workholding principles.


• ITAR Compliance & Authorization: U.S. Citizenship or Green Card holder required due to ITAR defense regulations; residing within a daily commuting radius of Greater Green Bay, WI.

Preferred Technical Assets (Bonus Skills)

• High-Axis Machining: Setup experience on 5-axis milling machines or multi-spindle, live-tooling turning centers.


• CAD/CAM Literacy: Exposure to Mastercam, GibbsCAM, or Esprit for verifying or adjusting tool paths.


• Formal Machining Credentials: Technical diploma, CNC machining certificate, or formal apprenticeship completion.
