TOTAL MANUFACTURING

Now Hiring: Lead EDM Operator

Day Shift $30–$40/hour DOE Mentor, Ohio

Position: Lead EDM Operator

Shift: Day shift

Pay Range: $30–$40 per hour, based on direct EDM experience

Location: Total Manufacturing — 7777 St. Clair Ave., Mentor, OH 44060

About Total Manufacturing

Total Manufacturing is a privately owned precision machine shop based in Mentor, Ohio, operating out of a 90,000 square foot facility built around skilled craftsmanship and modern equipment. Our work spans CNC milling and turning, EDM, manual machining, grinding, welding, fabrication, and painting — supporting rapid prototyping as well as small to medium volume production for customers who demand tight tolerances and complex geometries.

We are proud of a team whose average tenure exceeds 20 years. That kind of stability is the result of treating people well, investing in our equipment, and giving experienced machinists the autonomy to do their best work. Our EDM department — with both wire and sinker capabilities — produces intricate features and surface finishes that conventional machining cannot achieve, in some of the toughest materials we run.

The Role

We are looking for an experienced Lead EDM Operator to take ownership of our Charmilles sinker and wire EDM platforms. You will be the go-to expert in the department — setting up jobs, programming and operating the machines, troubleshooting issues, and keeping the equipment running at peak performance. This is a hands-on leadership role for a machinist who takes pride in precision work and wants the equipment, support, and challenging projects to match.

What You'll Do

Set up, operate, program, and maintain Charmilles sinker and wire EDM machines

Read and interpret blueprints, GD&T, and CAD/CAM data to plan EDM operations

Select electrodes, fixtures, wire types, and machine parameters for each job

Hold tight tolerances and produce excellent surface finishes in hardened tool steels, carbide, and exotic alloys

Perform first-article and in-process inspection; document and verify part quality

Diagnose mechanical, electrical, and process issues; perform preventive maintenance and minor repairs

Mentor other machinists on EDM best practices and contribute to continuous improvement on the floor

Work closely with engineering, programming, and quality to keep jobs moving on schedule

What You Bring

Demonstrated experience setting up, operating, programming, and maintaining sinker and wire EDM equipment — Charmilles experience strongly preferred

Strong blueprint reading and GD&T skills

Comfort with EDM CAM software and on-machine programming

Solid math skills and proficiency with precision measurement tools (micrometers, calipers, indicators, gage pins, optical comparators, CMM as needed)

A quality-first mindset, attention to detail, and the discipline to follow process

Reliability, ownership of your work area, and a willingness to share what you know with the team

High school diploma or GED; technical/trade school coursework or apprenticeship a plus

Compensation

$30–$40 per hour, depending on direct EDM experience. Day shift schedule. Overtime as work requires.

Benefits Highlights

Total Manufacturing is part of the Trust Manufacturing Group, which means our team has access to a robust benefits package. Highlights include:

Health & Wellness

Medical (PPO) through Roundstone/Bywater on the Cigna national provider network

Dental and Vision coverage through Guardian

Pharmacy benefits through True Rx, plus the SHARx high-cost prescription advocacy program (employer-paid) for eligible specialty medications

ComPsych GuidanceResources EAP — confidential counseling, legal, financial, and work-life support 24/7

Income Protection

Employer-paid Basic Life and AD&D coverage through Guardian (no cost to you)

Voluntary Life and AD&D for employees, spouses, and children

Short-Term and Long-Term Disability options through Guardian

Voluntary Critical Illness, Accident, and Hospital Indemnity coverage

Retirement

401(k) plan administered by Marcum Wealth, LLC — pre-tax contributions up to IRS limits

Company match: 100% of the first 1% you contribute, plus 50% match on the next 5%

Eligible after 3 months of service

This is a brief summary. Full plan details and a complete benefits guide will be provided during onboarding.
