About the Role:

We are seeking an experienced CNC EDM Machinist specializing in Wire EDM and Sinker EDM operations to support precision manufacturing and machining processes. This position involves setting up, programming, and operating electrical discharge machining (EDM) equipment to produce high-precision components with tight tolerances. The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience with CNC machining, precision tooling, blueprint reading, and quality inspection. This opportunity is well suited for a detail-oriented EDM Machinist, Wire EDM Operator, or CNC Machinist looking to apply advanced machining skills in a precision manufacturing environment.

Responsibilities:

• Set up, program, and operate Wire EDM and Sinker EDM machines to manufacture precision components according to engineering drawings and specifications.
• Interpret blueprints, technical drawings, GD&T specifications, and machining instructions to ensure accurate production.
• Develop and modify EDM programs, including cutting paths, machining parameters, offsets, and electrode configurations.
• Select appropriate tooling, electrodes, fixtures, and machining parameters to achieve specified tolerances and surface finishes.
• Perform precision measurements and inspections using micrometers, calipers, indicators, height gauges, and other metrology equipment.
• Monitor machining operations and make adjustments to improve accuracy, efficiency, and overall production quality.
• Troubleshoot machining issues involving wire tension, flushing, electrode wear, dimensional accuracy, and machine performance.
• Perform routine preventive maintenance, machine cleaning, and equipment inspections to maintain safe and efficient operations.
• Collaborate with CNC machinists, programmers, engineers, and quality personnel to resolve manufacturing challenges.
• Maintain accurate production documentation, inspection records, and quality control procedures.

Qualifications:

• Proven experience operating and setting up Wire EDM, Sinker EDM, or electrical discharge machining equipment in a manufacturing environment.
• Strong understanding of CNC machining principles, precision manufacturing processes, and EDM technology.
• Ability to read and interpret engineering blueprints, technical drawings, and geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T).
• Experience using precision measuring instruments, including micrometers, calipers, dial indicators, and gauges.
• Knowledge of machining tolerances, surface finish requirements, material properties, and inspection procedures.
• Ability to troubleshoot machining problems, adjust cutting parameters, and maintain consistent part quality.
• Familiarity with shop safety procedures, machine maintenance, and manufacturing quality standards.

Desired Qualifications:

• Experience with both Wire EDM and Sinker EDM machining processes.
• Familiarity with EDM programming software, CAD/CAM systems, and CNC machine controls.
• Experience machining tool steels, hardened materials, stainless steel, aluminum, and other precision metals.
• Background in tool and die manufacturing, mold making, aerospace machining, or precision tooling.
• Knowledge of lean manufacturing, continuous improvement, and root cause analysis.
• Technical training, machining certification, or an associate degree in CNC machining, manufacturing technology, or a related field.
