## Description

### Overview

We're hiring CNC Machinists for our precision machining and prototyping company.

We machine precision components used in industries ranging from defense to domestic energy, automotive, and heavy industrial processing. These parts that go into systems as diverse as jet turbines and steel mill infrastructure. The work is high-mix, low-volume: short runs, new prints, and prototyping and fabrication under the same roof.

You'll run 3-, 4-, and 5-axis milling centers, standard and Swiss-style lathes, or lathes with live tooling. Some of our machinists specialize on one side of the shop and some run everything. We're interested in working with machinists ranging from recent technical school graduates to seasoned industry veterans.
