CNC Machinist - Talent Pool / Future Opportunities

Opportunities available across Ohio (multiple locations)

I'm currently partnering with several automotive and precision manufacturing organisations across Ohio who are looking to connect with CNC Machinists experienced in producing high‑tolerance, high‑specification components.

This post is not tied to a single live vacancy. Instead, it reflects ongoing demand for skilled machinists who can program, set, and operate CNC equipment to automotive and precision‑engineering standards. The aim is to build a pipeline of strong candidates for upcoming and future opportunities across the state.

Typical Responsibilities May Include

Programming, setting, and operating CNC mills and/or lathes (Fanuc, Haas, Siemens, etc.)
Producing precision components to tight tolerances using G‑code and basic CAM workflows
Reading and interpreting engineering drawings and GD&T requirements
Performing first‑article inspections and in‑process quality checks
Troubleshooting machining issues and adjusting tooling, offsets, and parameters
Maintaining tooling, documenting setups, and supporting continuous improvement
Working to production targets while upholding safety and quality standards

We're Interested in Profiles With

Hands‑on CNC machining experience within automotive or precision manufacturing
Strong understanding of machining processes, tooling, and inspection methods
Ability to work to tight tolerances and follow detailed technical specifications
Experience with multi‑axis machining or turning centres is highly beneficial
Familiarity with inspection tools (micrometers, calipers; CMM exposure a plus)
Reliable, safety‑focused work ethic with the ability to work day, night, or rotating shifts

Typical Backgrounds Could Include

CNC Machinist
CNC Programmer / Setter‑Operator
Toolroom Machinist
Multi‑axis Machinist
Precision Machinist with automotive component experience

Salary Expectations

Compensation for CNC Machinists in Ohio typically varies based on experience, machine type, programming depth, and shift structure. As a general guide:

Entry level (0-2 yrs): $40K - $55K Suitable for machinists confident with basic setups, offsets, and reading drawings.
Mid‑level (2-5 yrs): $55K - $75K Common for machinists who can independently set up jobs, adjust tooling, and work to tight tolerances.
Experienced (5+ yrs): $75K - $95K+ Reflects machinists with strong programming ability (Fanuc/Haas/Siemens), multi‑axis experience, and a background in automotive or precision machining.

(Actual ranges may vary depending on machine complexity, programming responsibilities, shift premiums, and the specific demands of each facility.)

Industries We Commonly Support

Automotive components and assemblies
Precision machining and engineered products
Industrial equipment manufacturing
Tooling, fixtures, and metalworking environments
