What We're Looking For
We are seeking a CNC Operators to support day-to-day production across a modern CNC machining environment. This role focuses on basic setup and operation of CNC mills and turning centers producing precision components.
The shop is predominantly OKUMA, with a mix of vertical and horizontal machining centers (3-axis through 5-axis), as well as turning centers equipped with sub-spindles, dual turrets, live tooling, and Y-axis. There is also exposure to multi-tasking machines with B-axis heads, Swiss machines (Tsugami and Tornos), and Seibu Wire EDM, depending on workload and shift.
This role is available on 1st, 2nd, and 3rd shift, with pay ranging from $22–$35/hour, depending on experience, machine capability, and shift. This is a good opportunity for a machinist who wants steady work, exposure to a wide range of CNC equipment, and a clear path to build skills in a well-equipped shop.
