Senior CNC Machinist

Overview We're hiring Senior CNC Machinists for our precision medical and prototyping shop in Cedar City, UT. The work is high-mix, low-volume: complex prints, unproven prototype setups, and tight tolerances on large-format material. Parts run on large-format 5-axis CNC milling centers, and most jobs are new the first time you see them. Machinists here own the process end to end — blueprint interpretation, multi-axis setup, workholding, first article prove-out, and final inspection — and work directly with engineers on part design. 5-axis experience is preferred, not required. Why Join Us Own the whole part: Print through final inspection stays with one machinist. Prototype variety: New setups on unproven parts, not repeat production. Engineer access: Work directly with engineers on design and manufacturability changes. Compensation Base pay: Market competitive and hourly — open to discussion. Tell us what you need. Hiring on 1st and 2nd Shift Monday - Friday Requirements Responsibilities Setups: Set up and run large-format CNC mills and lathes Prove-Out: Take unproven prototype parts from first article through final run. Print Interpretation: Apply GD&T to complex blueprints, routings, and engineering models. Workholding: Build fixturing strategies around tool clearance and collision avoidance. Program Edits: Adjust feeds, speeds, offsets, and tool comp at the control. Inspection: Verify tight tolerances with micrometers, indicators, and precision gauges. Design Feedback: Recommend part changes that improve manufacturability. ERP Entry: Record quantities and process adjustments in the ERP system. Qualifications Required 3+ years CNC machining in precision work Set up complex jobs independently, start to finish Read complex blueprints and apply GD&T Hold tight tolerances on complex geometries Read and write G/M-code at the control Inspect parts with micrometers, indicators, and gauges Solid feeds, speeds, and tool wear fundamentals Preferred 5-axis milling experience Large-format machinery experience Advanced workholding and fixture design Prototype or first-article prove-out experience Machining advanced and exotic alloys Troubleshooting dimensional or tooling issues at the machine ERP system experience
