Job summary

WireCo WorldGroup is seeking a skilled Machinist to machine and repair components, tooling, and fixtures for plant maintenance and production. You will set up and operate manual lathes, milling machines, and surface grinders, read drawings, and verify dimensions with precision measuring tools to meet tight tolerances.

Responsibilities include interpreting specifications, creating or revising CAD drawings, and coordinating with maintenance and engineering.

Qualifications

• High school diploma or GED and relevant manual machining experience.
• Ability to read mechanical drawings and apply shop mathematics, dimensions, tolerances, and fits to assigned work.
• Ability to use and read precision measuring instruments accurately and verify work against specified requirements.
• Experience setting up and operating manual lathes and manual mills, with working knowledge of surface-grinder operation.
• Ability to follow safety and quality procedures, communicate job status, and use basic computer applications, email, and electronic work records.

Responsibilities

• Interpret drawings, sketches, specifications, and sample parts to establish machining requirements. Identify missing dimensions, fit requirements, or other uncertainties before cutting material.
• Make repair parts from drawings, sketches, or existing components. Measure parts and identify wear; seek guidance when intended dimensions, materials, or fit requirements are unclear.
• Create or revise CAD drawings, operate CNC equipment, and develop or edit CNC programs as assigned and within demonstrated qualifications.
• Set up and operate manual lathes, manual milling machines, surface grinders, and other assigned shop equipment using appropriate tools and safe work holding. Select cutting tools, machining sequences, speeds, and feeds for assigned work.
• Adjust setups and machining methods to achieve specified dimensions, fits, and surface finishes. Refer unfamiliar operations to the supervisor before proceeding.
• Manufacture and repair machine components, jigs, fixtures, soft jaws, and dies for equipment repairs and plant improvement work.
• Inspect work using micrometers, calipers, indicators, gauges, and other appropriate instruments. Verify critical dimensions during machining and before releasing the finished part.
• Coordinate with Maintenance, Production, and Engineering on job requirements, equipment fit, priorities, and completion needs. Communicate material shortages, technical questions, and delays promptly.
• Record completed work and retain setup information and inspection results as required. Save drawings and programs when created or revised so successful work can be repeated.
• Follow plant safety procedures, machine guarding requirements, applicable energy isolation procedures, work instructions, and quality requirements. Stop and report unsafe conditions or work outside approved capability.
• Maintain orderly work areas and perform assigned routine care of shop equipment and tooling. Use forklifts and material-handling equipment only when trained and authorized.
• Help resolve machining and component problems, reduce scrap and rework, and share proven methods with other machinists. Perform related machining and maintenance-support duties as assigned and within qualifications.
