Full Job Description

Overview:

We are seeking a high-caliber CNC Machinist to join our precision machining team in Oak Ridge. We are a specialized manufacturer producing critical, close-tolerance components for the aerospace and defense industries. If you want to see your work on satellites, fighter jets, and rockets, this is the shop for you.

Unlike high-volume "button-pusher" shops, we focus on low-volume, short-run production. This is a role for a true machinist who enjoys the challenge of complex geometries and one-off parts. We need someone who is not just a machine operator, but a technical problem-solver who can take a project from setup through final inspection.

We have openings on 1st and 2nd shift

Compensation:

$26 - $34 / hr

Shifts:

1st Shift: 9:00 AM - 5:30 PM (Monday - Friday)
2nd Shift: 5:30 PM - 3:30 AM (Monday - Thursday)

Responsibilities:

Independent Setups & Operation – Perform complete setups, touch-offs, and tool offsets on CNC machines for high-complexity, short-run aerospace parts.
G-Code Optimization – Read, interpret, and modify G-code at the controller to troubleshoot machining processes and ensure the highest accuracy.
Precision Machining – Machine parts to extremely close tolerances, often working with exotic materials and complex geometries required for flight-critical applications.
Manual Support – Operate manual equipment (mills, lathes, saws) as needed to support production and secondary operations.
Blueprint & GD&T Literacy – Read and interpret complex engineering drawings and specifications, including a strong mastery of Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T).
Process Improvement – Collaborate with engineering to verify CNC programs (MasterCam) and optimize machining strategies for better efficiency and quality.
Quality Control – Inspect finished parts using precision measuring tools to ensure 100% compliance with AS9100D and ISO 9001 standards.

Requirements

Qualifications:

Required:

Machining Experience: 5-10 years of professional machining experience with a heavy emphasis on CNC setups and troubleshooting.
Technical Proficiency: Proven ability to perform your own setups, offsets, and G-code modifications.
Precision Background: Deep experience in close-tolerance machining and fabrication of custom-designed equipment.
Blueprint Literacy: Strong ability to read complex prints and understand GD&T requirements.
Tooling Knowledge: Strong knowledge of precision machining tools, metal fabrication, and mechanical equipment.

Preferred:

5-Axis Experience: Prior experience with 5-axis machining is a significant advantage.
Manual Skills: Proficiency in manual machining (mills/lathes) is highly valued.
Industry Experience: Previous experience in an Aerospace or Defense manufacturing environment (AS9100D/Nadcap).
Software: Experience with MasterCam software is a strong plus.

Benefits

Competitive salary and benefits package, including paid healthcare, holidays, and vacation.
Matching 401k.
Education reimbursement.
Opportunities for professional growth and development.
Collaborative and innovative work environment.

Pay: $52,000.00 - $68,000.00 per year
