Job Summary

CNC Lathe Operator (Horizontal Lathes)

Hastings, PA | 1st & 2nd Shift (Alternating Weeks) | Competitive Pay (based on experience)

Run the machines that keep production moving. Do it right. Do it consistently.

At Hastings Machine Company, we don’t just produce parts—we deliver precision and reliability our customers count on. As a CNC Lathe Operator, you’ll be running horizontal lathes, holding tight tolerances, and taking pride in producing quality parts that support infrastructure across the country.

If you’ve ever looked at a print and could picture the part in your head—how it’s going to run, where it might go wrong, and how to make it right, you’ll fit in well here.

We’re looking for experienced operators who understand the shop environment, take ownership of their work, and can be counted on to get the job done right.

What You’ll Be Doing

Set up and operate CNC lathes to run production parts
Monitor part quality using measuring tools (calipers, micrometers, gauges)
Make offsets and minor adjustments to maintain tolerances
Keep machines running efficiently while minimizing scrap and downtime
Catch issues early—before they turn into bigger problems

Three Pillars of the Role

Machine Operation & Output

Run CNC lathes efficiently to meet production goals
Maintain consistent cycle times while keeping machines running safely and minimizing downtime

Quality & Precision

Inspect parts and hold tight tolerances using proper measuring tools
Understand the part—not just the print—make approved adjustments to prevent defects and rework

Ownership & Reliability

Take responsibility for your machine, your parts, and your output
Communicate issues, support teammates, and step in when needed to keep production moving

What You Bring:

You’re dependable, detail-oriented, and understand what it takes to run a machine the right way.
Experience operating CNC lathes (horizontal preferred)
Ability to read blueprints and visualize part geometry and features
Strong understanding of measuring tools and inspection methods
Experience making offsets and machine adjustments to hold tolerance
Solid work ethic, reliability, and pride in producing quality work
Willingness to “fill in the white space” and support the team when needed

Top-Tier Benefits

Steady Work & Room to Grow: Advancement opportunities in a company with 45+ years of local job stability
Gainsharing Payouts: Share in the company’s success with 20+ years of quarterly payouts
No-cost Healthcare: Company-paid employee plan with a $1,500 deductible
Exceptional 401(k) Match: Dollar-for-dollar match up to 7%
Peace-of-mind Extra Coverage: Dental, vision, life, short- & long-term disability
Waiver incentive: Earn extra if you already have health insurance elsewhere
Work-Life Balance: PTO, early-quit holidays, and paid lunches
Family-owned, Locally Rooted Environment: Feel supported in a flexible people-first culture

Job Types: Part-time, Full-time

Work Location: In person
