The CNC Machinist is responsible for setting up, and operating computer numerical control (CNC) machines to produce high-precision components used in aircraft and related systems. The machinist works from technical drawings, blueprints, and CAD models, ensuring that parts meet strict standards for quality and precision. Unlike a machine operator, the CNC Machinist has advanced skills in machine setup and troubleshooting. They collaborate closely with engineering and quality teams to optimize production processes and maintain high accuracy.

Program (if required), set up, and operate CNC machines to manufacture components in accordance with engineering drawings and specifications.
Interpret complex blueprints, CAD models, and technical documents to determine machining operations, tooling requirements, and part dimensions.
Select appropriate cutting tools, speeds, and feeds for machining operations, optimizing processes for efficiency and precision.
Perform first article inspections (FAI) and in-process quality checks to ensure all parts meet customer requirements.
Troubleshoot and resolve issues with machine tooling or setups to minimize downtime and ensure optimal production.
Adjust machine settings and offsets as needed to maintain tight tolerances and quality control throughout the production run.
Collaborate with engineering, production, and quality teams to improve machining processes and implement continuous improvement initiatives.
Document machine setup procedures, part dimensions, and tool usage to ensure repeatability and consistency in production.
Perform routine maintenance on CNC machines, ensuring they are in good working condition and calibrated according to specifications.

Strong understanding of blueprint reading, geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T), and material properties used in the production of aircraft components.
Knowledge of cutting tools, machining speeds, and feeds for different materials (e.g., aluminum, titanium, composites).
Knowledge of quality control standards and inspection techniques, including the use of precision measuring instruments (calipers, micrometers, CMM).
Familiarity with aerospace industry standards and safety protocols.
High school diploma or equivalent required.
Minimum of 3-5 years of experience as a CNC Machinist, preferably in the production of high-precision components for aircraft or related systems required.
Experience in CNC machine setup, operation, and programming (if required) for complex parts with tight tolerances required.
Proficiency in operating 3-4-5-axis CNC machines aerospace machining experience is preferred.
Familiarity with aerospace materials (e.g., titanium, aluminum, stainless steel) and their machining requirements preferred.
U.S. Citizen or Permanent Resident
Candidates "must/may need" to be able to obtain and maintain a DoD Security Clearance
Successful candidates must be able to secure Program Access approval

Familiarity with CAD/CAM software (e.g., Mastercam, CATIA, Siemens NX) for developing and modifying CNC programs a plus.
Proficiency in CNC programming (e.g., G-code, M-code) and operating various types of CNC machines, such as mills, lathes, and multi-axis machines a plus.
Associate’s degree in Manufacturing Technology, Machining, or a related technical field is a plus.
