Job description

Do you take pride in producing work that must be right the first time, every time? Do you excel when the most demanding details have to be executed with absolute precision? Are you someone who values routine, accuracy, and clear expectations — and prefers a workplace where excellence is the standard?

If you’re a steady, methodical, highly accountable machinist who thrives in a precision-driven environment, Stewart Precision may be the ideal long-term home for you.

Who Are We

Stewart Precision is the rapid-response leader in turnkey precision machining and threading solutions for the oilfield and aerospace industries.

We are a strategic supplier to the largest aerospace and oilfield companies in the world, delivering large-diameter, complex components that require tight tolerances, technical expertise, and flawless execution. This is not a "job shop". This is a precision manufacturing environment where elite operators thrive.

Our reputation is built on three commitments:

Uncompromising Quality. Rapid Response. Expertly Executed.

What You’ll Do

• Machine components to exact specifications and tight tolerances
• Setup and operate CNC lathes or mills, ensuring correct tooling, programs, and job requirements
• Monitor operations, identify out-of-tolerance conditions, and make precise adjustments
• Read and interpret blueprints and technical drawings
• Maintain full part traceability and documentation
• Uphold strict safety, quality, and process standards

What we’re looking for

We’re not looking for basic proficiency. We’re looking for elite operators:

• Someone in the top 10% of CNC mill/lathe operators in Houston or a desire to get there
• Someone who has experience with premium threading. Experience with TenarisHydril connections is a plus.
• A person who has the understanding of health, safety and quality control, as well as excellent communication skills while multitasking in a fast-paced environment
• Someone who takes pride in producing work that others can rely on
• Highly employee-favorable healthcare plans
• Dental and vision coverage
• 401(k) with company match
• Consistent hours (including OT) and long-term stability
• A clean, climate controlled, and organized environment
• A vacation buyback program for any unused PTO
