Advanced CNC Operator / CNC Associate

DW Products – Cedar Rapids, IA | Full-Time | On-Site

About DW Products

DW Products is a precision CNC turning shop in Cedar Rapids with more than 70 years of proven performance. Our work spans single-spindle CNC to advanced 8-spindle INDEX Swiss technology, delivering complex, high-tolerance components for demanding industries. Recent investments in automation, robotics, presetters, advanced programming, and CMM inspection are driving our next stage of growth.

We are building a team that matches the level of our equipment.

The Opportunity

We’re hiring Advanced CNC Operators / CNC Associates who want to work with cutting-edge CNC equipment, including INDEX multi-spindle machines, automation cells, and automated inspection systems. In this role, you’ll partner closely with Engineering to streamline setups, improve processes, and help move DW toward faster, more automated production.

If you want to be part of building a next-generation, highly automated CNC shop rather than just “running parts,” this is the role for you!

What You’ll Do

Set up and operate CNC machines from blueprints and job travelers, holding tight tolerances.
Work with Engineering to reduce setup time, standardize tooling, and improve cycle times.
Use automation and robotics (bar feeders, automation cells, robots) to keep machines running efficiently.
Perform dimensional inspections using standard, complex, and automated measuring instruments.
Monitor part quality and make offset/tooling adjustments as needed.
Perform routine maintenance on machines and automation cells.
Support continuous improvement efforts around safety, quality, and throughput.

What You Bring

Minimum 2 years operating and setting up CNC machines from blueprints.

Strong math and reasoning skills for print reading and tooling decisions.
CAD/CAM programming knowledge preferred.
Ability to perform dimensional inspections (calipers, micrometers, indicators, automated gaging).
Knowledge of ISO 9001:2015.
Mechanically inclined with strong troubleshooting skills on CNC and automation equipment.
Understanding of cutting tools, holders, and tool grades.
High school diploma and trade school certification, or equivalent experience.
Ability to work overtime when needed.

First shift, full-time: Mon–Thurs, 6:00 AM – 4:00 PM
Second shift, full-time: Mon–Thurs, 4:00 PM – 2:00 AM (second-shift premium)

Pay starts at $29.50 per hour, depending on experience and shift.

Pre-employment physical and drug screens are required.
