CNC Multi-Axis Milling & Turning Operator

Overview & Responsibilities

Overview & Responsibilities

The Big Picture

We're looking for a highly skilled machinist who thrives on variety and complexity. In this role, you won't just run one machine all day—you'll perform set-up, machining, layout, minor program revisions, sub-assembly, and planned preventative maintenance across multiple advanced systems. You'll be the backbone of our Master Machining Cell, machining critical turbomachinery components on equipment like the Masterhead, Mill/Turn, and DMU600P.

If you're the kind of machinist who likes to think on your feet, solve problems, and take ownership of high-value work, this is your opportunity.

The Equipment You'll Master

You'll operate and support a Master Machining Cell that includes:

• Large Gantry CNC Vertical Machines

• Portal Machines

• Masterhead Machining Center

• Mill/Turn Machining Center System (including DMU600P)

Tools & Technology You'll Use

• Micro-computers and DNC network

• Tool presetting equipment

• Precision measuring devices

• Jib hoist, overhead crane, forklift trucks, and other material handling equipment

• Pedestal tool grinders, deburring tools, fixtures, and hand tools

Materials You'll Work With

All materials used in machining heavy turbomachinery equipment—so you'll be working with substantial, high-stakes components.

How You'll Work

You'll receive direction from management, but you'll operate with real autonomy. Each day starts by reviewing the workload schedule, which tells you:

• The Preventive Maintenance Plan (PM) for each machine

• Which part to machine

• Which part to set up

• Tooling requirements for all scheduled parts

• What part is coming next

From there, you're in the driver's seat.

What You'll Do Day-to-Day

Planning & Setup

• Interpret prints, drawings (part and tool), sketches, and instructions

• Plan and gather all necessary tooling, setup hardware, and measuring gages for the next scheduled part

• Obtain drawings, tools, and fixtures from the tool crib

• Pull materials from stock and help maintain department tooling inventory

• Perform layout functions (angles, radii, tapers, bolt circles, center punching, etc.)

• Install and adjust tools, clamps, and fixtures

• Position and align parts; set proper feeds and speeds

Machining & Operation

• Perform machining operations in CNC mode or manually

• Run multiple-axis machines (large gantry and portal machines)

• Set up machines to run unattended after programs are proven out and tool functions are monitored

• Monitor all machine tool functions

• Use DNC network

• Operate tap disintegrator as needed

• Rebuild, adjust, change, and dress tools

• Use grinding attachments

Quality & Verification

• Perform all part verification requirements, including completing Data Sheets

• Verify accuracy of micrometers

• Check parts to ensure operations are complete

• Deburr as necessary

• Stencil or stamp parts for identification

Maintenance & Housekeeping

• Perform all planned preventive maintenance (PM) requirements

• Lubricate, wipe, and oil machine ways

• Maintain good housekeeping

• Report defective material or equipment to management

Material Handling & Safety

• Use jib hoist, overhead crane, forklift truck, and other material handling equipment

• Work from ladders and scaffolds as needed

• Observe all safety rules

Documentation & Communication

• Report production count, time, and identifying data

• Prepare, complete, and issue documentation related to the Master Machining Center

Decision-Making & Autonomy

You'll use established processing methods and procedures, but you'll also make routine shift decisions about continuing machining operations or adjusting the system. Once a program is proven out and all tool functions are monitored, you'll have the green light to run machines unattended—so trust and accountability are big parts of this role.

Qualifications

• High school diploma or equivalent

• Must be able and willing to work 1st (7am–3pm), 2nd (3pm–11pm), and 3rd (11pm–7am) shifts. Shifts are not guaranteed and are subject to realignment.

• Must be able and willing to work overtime, weekends, and holidays.
