Lead CNC Machinist & Programmer

Help Build Our New 2nd Shift

Location: Oak Lawn, Illinois

Shift: 2nd Shift, 4-Day Work Week | Monday–Thursday, 3:00 p.m. – 1:30 a.m. | Overtime as needed on Fridays

This isn't just another lead machinist position.

It's an opportunity to help build something.

Meyer Tool is expanding our machining department and launching a dedicated second shift to support continued growth. We're looking for an experienced CNC Machinist and Programmer who wants more than running parts—you'll help establish our second shift culture, mentor machinists, solve challenging manufacturing problems, and play a key role in shaping the future of our shop.

If you've ever thought, "If I were running this shift, I'd do things differently," this may be the opportunity you've been waiting for.

We Build Things That Change the World

For more than 56 years, Meyer Tool has manufactured precision components for national laboratories, aerospace programs, universities, advanced technology companies, and scientific research organizations.

We don't run thousands of identical production parts.

Our machinists solve new manufacturing challenges every week, producing one-of-a-kind and short-run components for cryogenic, vacuum, pressure, and research applications.

You'll work closely with engineers, welders, inspectors, and fellow machinists to bring complex ideas to life.

Your Mission

Lead our second shift by example.

You'll spend part of your time programming, setting up, and machining complex parts while also coordinating workflow, mentoring machinists, solving production challenges, and ensuring quality and on-time delivery.

This is a working leadership position where your experience, attitude, and technical expertise will directly influence the success of our growing machining department.

What You'll Do

Program complex components using Fusion 360 CAM
Set up and operate multi-axis CNC mills and lathes
Optimize machining processes to improve efficiency and quality
Lead daily second-shift production activities
Assign work and coordinate priorities
Mentor developing machinists and CNC operators
Troubleshoot machining, tooling, and programming challenges
Collaborate with Engineering on manufacturability improvements
Support continuous improvement initiatives
Maintain exceptional quality and safety standards
Help build a positive, accountable team culture

Equipment You'll Work With

Hurco 5-Axis Mills
Hurco 3 & 4-Axis Mills
Hurco TMM10 Turning Center
Haas Mills & Lathes
G&L Horizontal Boring Mill
Manual Mills & Lathes
Bullard VTL (experience a plus)

What We're Looking For

Required:

5+ years CNC machining in a high-mix, low-volume environment
Strong setup and troubleshooting experience
CAM programming experience (Fusion 360 preferred)
Blueprint reading and GD&T proficiency
Excellent problem-solving skills
Ability to manage multiple priorities
Positive, hands-on leadership style

Preferred:

Experience mentoring or leading machinists
Multi-axis machining experience
ERP experience
Process improvement mindset
Manual machining experience

Leadership experience is helpful—but if you're the person others naturally turn to for technical guidance, we'd still like to hear from you.

Why Join Meyer Tool?

✔ Help build an entirely new second shift

✔ Make a lasting impact on our company's future

✔ Program and machine interesting, one-of-a-kind parts

✔ Work with engineers solving unique manufacturing challenges

✔ 4-day work week

✔ Premium compensation and shift differential

✔ Medical, Dental & Vision Insurance

✔ 401(k) with Company Match

✔ Tuition Reimbursement

✔ Overtime opportunities

✔ Stable family-owned company

✔ Non-union environment

✔ Modern equipment and continuous investment

✔ Opportunity to influence processes—not just follow them

About Meyer Tool

Meyer Tool is a family-owned precision manufacturer specializing in complex engineered components for cryogenic, vacuum, pressure, aerospace, and scientific applications.

Unlike production shops, every week brings new challenges, new parts, and new opportunities to solve difficult manufacturing problems.

Our reputation has been built over more than five decades by skilled craftspeople who take pride in doing work that matters.

If you're ready to help build a second shift, mentor the next generation of machinists, and leave your mark on a growing company, we'd like to meet you.

Build the impossible—with us.
