About this role
We’re hiring an experienced CNC Lathe / Mill-Turn Machinist to join a growing precision manufacturing operation in Horsham, PA.
This is a senior-level, hands-on machining role for someone who can do significantly more than load parts and run an established cycle. We’re looking for a machinist who can own jobs from setup through finished part — interpreting prints and GD&T, selecting tooling and workholding, setting up equipment, making program and process adjustments, troubleshooting issues, and verifying that parts meet tight tolerance requirements.
You’ll work in a new, state-of-the-art facility producing complex, high-precision components using advanced CNC equipment.
What You’ll Do:
- Set up and operate CNC lathes, mills, and mill-turn equipment
- Perform complex setups independently and take jobs from setup through production
- Make CNC program edits and adjustments at the machine as needed
- Read and interpret engineering drawings, blueprints, CAD models, and GD&T
- Select appropriate cutting tools, inserts, workholding, fixtures, speeds, and feeds
- Troubleshoot tooling, setup, dimensional, and machining issues
- Perform first-piece and in-process inspection using calipers, micrometers, and other precision measuring equipment
- Make offsets and process adjustments to maintain tight tolerances
- Monitor machine performance and identify potential quality or process problems before they impact production
- Support development of improved machining methods, tooling, fixturing, and processes
- Document production and quality information accurately
- Maintain a clean, organized 5S manufacturing environment
- Take ownership of assigned work from initial setup through completed parts
Requirements
- 6+ years of CNC machining experience
- Strong background with CNC lathes and/or mill-turn equipment
- Ability to independently set up and run complex CNC jobs
- Experience programming, editing, or making program adjustments at the machine
- Strong understanding of GD&T and blueprint interpretation
- Experience machining complex, tight-tolerance components
- Strong knowledge of tooling, workholding, fixturing, speeds, feeds, and machining processes
- Comfortable using calipers, micrometers, and other precision inspection equipment
- Ability to diagnose machining problems and make adjustments without requiring significant supervision
Benefits
- Health, dental, and vision insurance
- 401k
- PTO
