Job description

Hourly pay based on experience.

• 1st and 2nd shifts available.
• Up to an additional $10 per hour for 2nd shift.

Do you enjoy setting up a new job more than running the same part all week? At Guill, we machine small batches of precision components for U.S. Navy submarines and build extrusion dies used to make products such as medical tubing. If your favorite part of a job is figuring out how to hold the work and getting the first piece to print, we’d like to meet you.

At the Grinding Machine:

• Read the print and setup instructions so you know the dimensions and tolerances the finished part needs to meet.
• Set up and operate surface and cylindrical grinding machines, including outside-diameter (OD) and inside-diameter (ID) grinding. Bring the first piece to print.
• Use micrometers and gauges to check your work as you grind, make the adjustments needed, and verify the finished part against the print.
• Our grinding equipment includes the Taiyo Koki Vertical Mate 55, Chevalier cylindrical grinder, and Okamoto surface grinder.

What you bring:

• You can read a print and use micrometers and gauges to check your work. Grinding experience is preferred. We’d like to hear about the machines you’ve worked with and the kind of grinding work you enjoy.

Benefits:

• Employee medical, dental and vision coverage with $0 in premiums.
• Extra pay for extra effort.
• When you put in extra hours to help us meet production needs, we reward that effort. Here’s how you can add to your paycheck.

Second-shift differential: Up to an additional $10 per hour for hours worked on second shift.

Current weekly hours incentive:

• $50 for a workweek of at least 45 but fewer than 50 hours.
• $100 for a workweek of 50 or more hours (this replaces the $50 bonus; the most you can earn in one week is $100).

Overtime incentive bonuses are paid in addition to regular wages and overtime earnings. Eligibility is based on hours actually worked during the workweek.

An extra way to recognize our team. You may be awarded a discretionary year-end bonus, considering company performance and other factors.

Stay comfortable on your feet with up to $100 per year in reimbursement for work shoes or boots.

Your time outside the shop and your plans for the future matter, too.

• Build your retirement savings with 401(k) match up to 3%.
• Plan for your healthcare and protection needs with life insurance and FSA and HRA options.
• Be part of an involved team, with an engagement committee to support employee connection and involvement.
