We are hiring an experienced CNC Mazak Lathe Programmer to join a fast-paced, precision manufacturing team. This is a high-skill role with no training opportunity, so candidates must be able to independently program, set up, and produce parts.

  • Read and interpret blueprints, engineering drawings, and geometric tolerances

  • Calculate feeds, speeds, and surface footage using trigonometry and geometry

  • Operate across machines, including manual and CNC lathes, vertical and horizontal mills

  • Fabricate or modify tooling as needed and create supporting prints with material specs

  • Conduct part inspections using precision measuring tools; step in as an inspector if required

  • Perform multi-tasking while machine is running (e.g., deburring, cleaning, supporting teammates)

  • Maintain strict quality standards with a goal of zero non-conformances annually

  • Support production goals by working overtime as required, including some Saturdays

  • Promote a safety-first culture and maintain clean, organized workspaces


? Minimum Requirements:

  • 5+ years of CNC machining experience in a job shop or custom-built environment

  • Strong working knowledge of Mazak programming (Mazatrol or FAPT) and G-code editing

  • Must be able to independently program and modify CNC lathe jobs with no supervision

  • Mastery of trigonometry, geometry, and machining formulas

  • Deep understanding of blueprint reading, GD&T, and print symbols

  • Knowledge of tooling, insert specs, and materials (e.g., hardness, machinability, metallurgy)

  • Proficiency using calipers, micrometers, height gauges, and other inspection tools

  • Ability to lift up to 30 lbs, work overtime, and adapt to shifting production needs


?? What We Offer:

  • Competitive pay based on experience: $24–$30/hour

  • $2/hour shift differential for 2nd shift

  • Overtime potential and additional Saturday hours

  • Opportunity to work in a respected, custom production environment
