Aegis is partnering with a leading manufacturer in Bryant, IN to add a hands‑on Toolroom CNC/EDM Machinist‑Programmer to the Machine Shop. Step into a role where your precision machining, programming, and troubleshooting skills keep production moving and costs under control.

You clock in and pull up the day’s blueprints. First task: translate a complex drawing into a precise plan of cut paths, feeds, and speeds. After validating your program, you set up a 3–4 axis VMC and run the first‑off part, measuring features against GD&T callouts. An EDM job is next—you fine‑tune parameters, then pivot to support a new equipment start‑up, verifying PLC I/O, chasing a sensor fault on a CNC lathe, and documenting findings in the ERP.

Before lunch, you consult with the Die Tech and parts cage teams to tweak a tool repair to reduce cost and downtime. The afternoon wraps with a preventive maintenance check on a manual mill and updating project notes in Microsoft 365.
