Job Description We are hiring multiple CNC Machinists across junior and senior skill bands to support a high-mix, low-volume precision machining environment producing complex, tight-tolerance parts. We’re experiencing strong growth and scaling our machining team accordingly, building a balanced crew of developing talent and seasoned experts. You’ll find the best of both worlds here: the pace and variety of a job shop, paired with the stability, benefits, and progression of a well-run operation that rewards growth. We're hiring on every shift and offer consistent overtime to those who want it, but rarely required for those who don't. This is not a button-pushing role. Our machinists own work end-to-end, from setup through final inspection, and play a direct role in quality, delivery performance, and continuous improvement. If you have strong fundamentals, a genuine passion for machining, and the skill to prove it, we want to talk. Compensation • Junior Machinist: $26 - 33 / hr, • Senior Machinist: $33 - $45 / hr, • Night Shift Differential: $3 /hr, • Day Shift (4 x 10s) 6:00am - 4:30pm, • Night Shift: (4x 10s) 4:30pm - 3:00am, • 10+ hours / week for those who want it, • $5-7k of relocation assistance (to Tuscaloosa, AL), • Medical, dental, vision, • 401(k) with match, • PTO Depending on skill level, you will be responsible for: • Set up and operate CNC milling and turning centers in a precision, job-shop environment, • Run work end-to-end: setup, run, inspect, and document results, • Interpret complex blueprints, routings, and work instructions, • Select tooling, establish offsets, and build effective workholding strategies, • Perform manual measurement and inspection using micrometers, gauges, indicators, and other precision tools, • Hold tight tolerances and own part quality from first piece through final run, • Read and understand CNC programs; make edits and adjustments as required, • Troubleshoot dimensional, tooling, and process issues to restore quality and throughput, • Support setup of proven and unproven parts based on capability, • Maintain a clean, safe, and organized work area, • Participate in continuous improvement and process optimization efforts Requirements We are hiring for two primary profiles and will align level and pay to demonstrated capability. Junior CNC Machinist: This profile is ideal for a machinist with strong fundamentals who is ready to take the next step. You likely bring: • A few years of machining experience with the ability to run your own setups on medium-complexity parts, • Experience on mills and/or lathes in a precision environment, • Confidence using manual inspection tools (calipers, micrometers, indicators) and holding consistent tolerances, • Ability to read programs, make small edits/offset changes, and calibrate or verify machine condition as needed You likely bring: • 7+ years in precision machining (more is welcome), • Proven experience holding .0005” (5 tenths / ~13 microns) or tighter on critical features, with the ability to verify those tolerances manually, • Strong ability to interpret complex technical drawings and apply GD&T (e.g., true position, parallelism, profile, concentricity, flatness, coaxiality), • Experience setting up multi-axis equipment (5-axis mills and/or mill-turn / multi-axis lathes), • Ability to fluently read G-code / M-code and efficiently edit programs to maintain quality and throughput, • Background in high-setup environments (often 30%+ setup time) and complex setups with 10+ tools (and potentially far more), • Experience setting up unproven parts and troubleshooting tooling/process/machine variables to achieve first-article success, • Strong documentation habits, teamwork, communication, and an unwavering commitment to safety and craftsmanship Benefits Benefits • Medical, dental, vision, • 401(k) with match, • PTO
