You'll set up and operate CNC machine tools to produce precision parts, applying knowledge of mechanics, shop math, metal properties, layout, and machining procedures.
We're an ISO 9001 certified precision machine shop. We hire for grit and train for skill. Level I operators work under the direct guidance of a trainer or team leader, and we promote from within: Level I to Level II to Level III, with compensation to match.
