Precision CNC Milling & Turning Specialist
Step into Precision: A Day in This Role
Join TekPro Engineering’s partner, a well-established precision manufacturer, as a direct-hire CNC expert. You’ll work on tight-tolerance parts in a clean, well-run shop equipped with modern CNC technology—offering both 1st and 2nd shift options, competitive pay, strong benefits, and long-term stability.
How Your Day Unfolds
- Kick off by reviewing blueprints, work instructions, and GD&T to plan your setups.
- Set up and run CNC mills and lathes—both horizontal and vertical—tailoring offsets and tooling for low-to-medium volume jobs.
- Make on-the-fly adjustments: tool changes, offsets, and basic troubleshooting to keep production on pace.
- Verify quality at the machine using micrometers, calipers, and gauges to hold close tolerances.
- Document results, uphold safety, and communicate with engineering and quality when needed.
What You’ll Do
- Set up and operate CNC milling and turning equipment (horizontal/vertical platforms).
- Produce precision components in low-to-mid volume runs with tight tolerance requirements.
- Perform tooling adjustments, offsets, and resolve common machining issues.
- Interpret blueprints, GD&T, and work instructions accurately.
- Inspect parts with precision measuring instruments and record outcomes.
- Maintain quality, safety, and productivity standards throughout each shift.
- Collaborate with engineering and quality teams to optimize outcomes.
What You Bring
- 2+ years of CNC machining experience in milling and/or turning.
- Hands-on setup and operation skills (programming exposure is a plus, not required).
- Fluency in reading blueprints and applying GD&T.
- Proven ability to hold tight tolerances.
- Familiarity with controls such as Haas, Mazak, DMG Mori, Okuma, Fanuc, or similar.
- Strong attention to detail and a quality-first mindset.
Why This Opportunity
- Direct-hire position with a stable, respected precision manufacturer.
- Modern CNC equipment in a clean, organized environment.
- Competitive pay, strong benefits, and long-term stability.
- Choice of 1st or 2nd shift to fit your schedule.
