  • Perform drilling, tapping, reaming, honing, deburring, and other bench work as needed.
  • Maintain equipment, make adjustments, troubleshoot machining issues, and ensure parts meet specifications.
What We're Looking For
  • Minimum 3 years of machinist experience in a job-shop environment
    .
  • Experience setting up and machining one-off parts and small production runs

Shift
  • Monday through Thursday 3:30 pm to 2:30 am
