Senior Precision Machinist; CNC Mills​/Lathes & Toolroom

Senior Precision Machinist (CNC Mills/Lathes & Toolroom)
A Day in the Shop Your shift begins at a tidy setup station. You review advanced blueprints, note critical GD&T callouts, verify tooling offsets, and prep a horizontal mill for the first run. You load and run a CNC program, watch the first-off part closely, and make smart adjustments to hold tolerance and improve machine efficiency. Before the next job, you switch seamlessly to a manual lathe for a rework cut—then rig and flip a heavy component using the overhead crane with practiced, safe motions.

Throughout the day, you inspect parts with micrometers, indicators, calipers, scales, and a profilometer, documenting results and keeping the shop tooling in top shape.
