Job Summary

We are currently seeking an experienced CNC Machinist/Programmer to join our manufacturing plant in Vernon Hills Illinois. This is an excellent opportunity to join a stable manufacturing company with a strong reputation for quality and precision machining.

In this role, you will be responsible for setting up, operating, and programming CNC lathes to produce precision metal components.

Create, edit, and modify CNC programs directly at the machine control.
Read and interpret blueprints, GD&T, and technical drawings.
Select tooling and perform complete machine setups.
Adjust speeds, feeds, and offsets to optimize production.
Troubleshoot machining and programming issues.
Inspect finished parts using calipers, micrometers, bore gauges, and CMM equipment.

Experience with Fanuc controls preferred.
Strong experience setting up and operating CNC mills and lathes.
Ability to read blueprints and interpret GD&T.
Experience performing complete machine setups, tooling changes, and troubleshooting.
Proficient with precision measuring instruments, including calipers, micrometers, bore gauges, and CMMs.
