Full Job Description

The Lead Machinist is a technical expert and working leader on the shop floor — setting up and operating manual and CNC equipment, mentoring junior machinists, and ensuring quality standards are met. The role sits in a low-volume/high-mix job shop environment (not repeat production runs), split roughly 75% CNC / 25% manual work, and 80% mill / 20% lathe. Work is split evenly between composite tooling/molds and metal hardware components (aluminum and steel), machined to aerospace tolerances of .002"–.010".

Day-to-Day Responsibilities

Set up, program, and operate manual and CNC equipment — mills, lathes, routers, and grinders — to machine composite tooling and metal hardware components.
Program using CAM software (Mastercam, NX) with edits made at the machine as needed; this is a CAM-generated workflow, not hand-written G&M code.
Interpret engineering drawings, work instructions, and CAD models to machine complex geometries to tight tolerances (.002"–.010").
Monitor machining processes, inspect parts using precision measuring tools, and adjust to maintain dimensional accuracy.
Train and mentor apprentice and junior machinists on best practices, safety, and equipment use.
Troubleshoot machining issues, collaborating with engineering and manufacturing to optimize tool paths, fixturing, and workholding.
Follow machine/tool maintenance schedules; perform minor maintenance or repairs to minimize downtime.
Maintain an organized, efficient work area following 5S and continuous-improvement principles.
Track job progress and communicate workflow, bottlenecks, or tooling needs to the production supervisor.
Assist with fixture and tooling development for custom composite layup molds or production hardware.
Uphold quality, safety, and compliance standards across company and aerospace industry protocols.

Requirements

Education: High school diploma or equivalent required; technical training or CNC certification preferred.
Experience: 5–10 years as a machinist in a high-precision manufacturing environment; composites and aerospace exposure strongly preferred.
CAM programming: 5+ years minimum hands-on with Mastercam and/or NX — this is a firm requirement on this floor, not a nice-to-have (see note below).
Equipment: Comfortable across 3-, 4-, and 5-axis CNC work. Floor equipment includes DMS 5-axis router, HAAS UMC-750 (x2), HAAS VB-1, HAAS VF-1, HAAS VM3, Thermwood M45, and Thermwood M67.
Strong manual machining ability (mill and lathe) — roughly a quarter of the role is manual work.
Able to read and interpret GD&T, blueprints, and engineering documentation.
Proficient with precision measuring instruments — micrometers, calipers, dial indicators, height gauges.
Demonstrated ability to lead by example, train others, and work well in a team-oriented shop.

Pay: $110,000.00 - $125,000.00 per year
