CNC Machinist — Pinewood Tool Corporation

Pinewood Tool is a low-volume, high-precision job shop, and we're hiring an experienced CNC Machinist to join our first shift. You'll run CNC mills and/or lathes on short-run tooling and component work where tight tolerances and clean execution matter on every part.

This is a hands‑on role for someone who takes ownership of their parts from blueprint to finished piece — programming, setting up your own jobs, and inspecting your work in process.

What you’ll do

• Program using MasterCam and also at the control
• Perform your own setups on CNC mills and/or lathes
• Machine small‑run parts and tooling from blueprints, working to GD&T
• Hold tight tolerances and perform in‑process quality inspection
• Use hand grinders and supporting tooling as needed to finish parts to spec
• Take ownership of your work and stand behind the result

What we’re looking for

• 5+ years of toolroom or short-run CNC machining experience
• Comfortable programming (Mastercam and at the control)
• Strong blueprint reading and applied GD&T knowledge
• Demonstrated ability to hold tight tolerances in a small-batch environment
• High school diploma or equivalent
• Detail‑oriented, dependable, and team‑minded — a fit for our culture of ownership, attention to detail, continuous improvement, and teamwork

The shop and the schedule

First shift, 8‑hour days, full-time, in person

Clean, air‑conditioned facility

Fast‑paced, small‑team environment where your work is visible and valued

Salary is based on experience.
