About the role

The Machinist is responsible for setting up and operating CNC mills and/or lathes to produce high-precision components. This role requires machining knowledge, strong problem-solving skills, and the ability to interpret drawings and control tight tolerances. The machinist ensures all parts meet quality standards, efficiency, and safety standards.

Key responsibilities

• Set up CNC mills, lathes, or multi-axis machines with minimal supervision according to Work Instructions and Tooling List.
• Install, setup and adjust tooling offset, setup fixtures, work holding, and machine offsets.
• Meet daily production targets with consistent part quality.
• Load programs and prove out new FAI jobs safely.
• Troubleshoot machining issues where applicable and communicate with supervisor, CADCAM programmers, and quality inspectors to resolve issues.
• Follow instructions from supervisors and support team workflow.
• Read and interpret technical drawings and engineering documentation.
• Inspect in-process and finished parts using micrometers, calipers, height gauges, and other precision tools.
• Support training of operator/fitter as needed.
• Perform machine routine preventive maintenance.

About you

• Diploma, Certificate or equivalent experience.
• 7–10 years of CNC machining experience (mills, lathes, or multi-axis).
• Experience in high-precision or high-mix/low-volume environments strongly preferred.
• Strong CNC setup and operating ability.
• Ability to read and understand technical drawings.
• Experience with Haas, Fanuc, Heidenhain, or similar controls.
• Proficient with precision measuring instruments.
• Strong attention to detail and quality mindset.
• Good communication and problem-solving skills.
• Good hand–eye coordination and manual dexterity.
