Job description

Description

$2,000 sign-on bonus. Four nights per week. You're never stuck on one part.

Schedule: Monday to Wednesday 3:00 pm to 1:30 am, Thursday 3:00 pm to 11:30 pm. Off Friday through Sunday. No mandatory overtime.

The job

You run vertical and horizontal CNC mills on prototype and low‑volume castings for defense, power generation, marine and vehicle OEMs, including parts for critical programs. Our customers send us a constant stream of new products and we turn jobs constantly, so you will run something different all the time, not the same part for weeks. Second shift at Griffin is a small crew with a lot of trust. You keep the jobs moving, check your own parts and hand off clean to first shift.

What you'll do

• Run vertical and horizontal CNC machining centers on iron, aluminum and steel castings
• Load parts, set offsets, make tool changes and hold tolerance
• Inspect your own work with micrometers, calipers, and gauges
• Deburr and finish parts to print
• Flag problems to engineering and quality so first shift starts clean

About Griffin Industries

We make stuff that matters. Griffin Industries is a family‑owned Green Bay shop that machines prototype and low‑volume castings for defense, energy, marine, electric vehicle, construction and agricultural OEMs. Our customers send us a constant stream of new products. Every day is a new day at Griffin, with new challenges and a fast pace.

We started in 1983 as a pattern shop and were one of the first in the country to put CNC on foundry tooling and the first to apply 3D printing to print sand molds. Today we run 18 CNC verticals and horizontals, three Zeiss and Coord3 CMMs, laser scanning, FEA casting simulation and 3D‑printed sand cores in a 40,000 square foot climate‑controlled building, and we are adding our own foundry next door. We are ISO 9001 certified, ITAR registered and CMMC Level 2 compliant, and we are building toward AS9100 as our aerospace and defense work grows.

Most of our team has been here more than ten years with several members celebrating over 30 years with the company.

A note from the owner

Griffin is the company my family started in 1983. We are now carrying the largest backlog in our history, and the parts on our floor end up in equipment that defends, powers and moves this country. We have built this company with a talented team of like‑minded people that like to get things done. If you want an always‑changing, fast‑paced environment, this is the place for you.
