Job description

3- 5-Axis CNC Machinist – Aerospace Manufacturing (Direct Hire NOT TEMP)

Take Your Machining Skills to the Next Level!

Are you an experienced CNC Machinist who enjoys tackling complex parts, dialing in precision setups, and producing components where quality matters?

We are looking for an experienced CNC Machinist to join its team and help manufacture high-precision components for demanding aerospace and advanced manufacturing applications. This is an opportunity to work on challenging projects, utilize advanced machining equipment, and take ownership of your work from machine setup through final inspection. If you have the ability to set up, operate, troubleshoot, and make program adjustments at the machine, we'd like to talk with you!

What You'll Be Doing

• Set up and operate advanced 3-5-axis CNC mills to manufacture complex, precision components.
• Perform complete machine setups, including tooling, fixtures, workholding, and part alignment.
• Read and interpret complex blueprints, engineering drawings, GD&T, and CAD models.
• Load, run, edit, and adjust CNC programs directly at the machine.
• Make tool and work offsets, troubleshoot machining issues, and fine-tune programs to achieve tight tolerances.
• Perform test cuts, verify setups, and ensure machining processes are running safely and accurately.
• Inspect finished components using precision measuring equipment.
• Work alongside programmers and fellow machinists to improve machining processes, quality, and efficiency.

What We're Looking For

• 3+ years of CNC machining experience.
• Hands-on experience setting up and operating 4- and/or 5-axis CNC machines.
• Ability to read and interpret blueprints, GD&T, and engineering drawings.
• Experience making program edits, tool offsets, and adjustments at the machine.
• Strong understanding of tooling, workholding, and precision measurement.
• Ability to troubleshoot machining issues and work independently.
• Aerospace or high-precision manufacturing experience is highly desirable.

We're particularly interested in machinists who can do more than push buttons. If you understand setups, can make program adjustments, and know how to produce complex parts to tight tolerances, this could be a great opportunity.

What's In It For You?

• 401(k) with company matching.
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance.
• Paid time off.
• Employee assistance program.
• Relocation assistance available.
• Opportunity to work with advanced machining technology and challenging aerospace components.

Physical Requirements

• Ability to lift and handle materials and tooling up to 50 lbs.
• Ability to stand and work around machinery for extended periods.
• Comfortable working in a manufacturing environment.

Due to federal export-control regulations, applicants must be a U.S. citizen or national, lawful permanent resident (green card holder), refugee, or individual granted asylum.

If you're an experienced CNC Machinist looking for challenging work, competitive pay, and an opportunity to work with advanced aerospace manufacturing technology, we'd love to hear from you.
