About The Position

We're looking for a highly skilled machinist who thrives on variety and complexity. In this role, you won't just run one machine all day—you'll perform set-up, machining, layout, minor program revisions, sub-assembly, and planned preventative maintenance across multiple advanced systems. You'll be the backbone of our Master Machining Cell, machining critical turbomachinery components on equipment like the Masterhead, Mill/Turn, and DMU600P. If you're the kind of machinist who likes to think on your feet, solve problems, and take ownership of high-value work, this is your opportunity. You'll operate and support a Master Machining Cell that includes: Large Gantry CNC Vertical Machines, Portal Machines, Masterhead Machining Center, and Mill/Turn Machining Center System (including DMU600P). You'll use micro-computers and DNC network, tool presetting equipment, precision measuring devices, jib hoist, overhead crane, forklift trucks, and other material handling equipment, pedestal tool grinders, deburring tools, fixtures, and hand tools. You'll be working with all materials used in machining heavy turbomachinery equipment. You will receive direction from management, but you'll operate with real autonomy. Each day starts by reviewing the workload schedule, which tells you the Preventive Maintenance Plan (PM) for each machine, which part to machine, which part to set up, tooling requirements for all scheduled parts, and what part is coming next. From there, you're in the driver's seat. You'll use established processing methods and procedures, but you'll also make routine shift decisions about continuing machining operations or adjusting the system. Once a program is proven out and all tool functions are monitored, you'll have the green light to run machines unattended—so trust and accountability are big parts of this role.
