MachinistsComputer Numerically Controlled Tool OperatorsLathe and Turning Machine Tool Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and PlasticCNC Lathe Machinist Eastridge Workforce Solutions is partnering with an established precision manufacturing organization in Pontiac, Michigan, to hire an experienced CNC Lathe Machinist. This is a hands-on role for a machinist who can work independently, perform complete lathe setups, understand and safely modify existing CNC programs, and make sound machining decisions without constant supervision. This is not a production-operator or button-pusher position. The successful candidate will work primarily with short-run and one-off/two-off components, taking raw material through turning operations while adjusting tooling, workholding, offsets, speeds, feeds, and program details as needed.
Essential Duties and Responsibilities:
- Perform complete setup, changeover, and operation of Haas CNC lathes with minimal supervision
- Read and interpret engineering drawings and use dimensional information to produce conforming parts
- Understand standard G-code and M-code and safely edit existing CNC programs at the machine when dimensions, tool positions, materials, or process conditions change
- Select and install appropriate cutting tools, inserts, drills, and workholding based on the part and machining operation
- Adjust speeds, feeds, offsets, and cutting parameters based on material, tooling, and process requirements
- Prove out programs using machine graphics and verify tool movement before machining to reduce the risk of crashes or scrap
- Complete frequent setups for low-volume work, including jaw, tooling, drill, insert, and thread-pitch changes between similar part families
- Inspect finished parts using micrometers and other basic precision measuring tools and make necessary process adjustments
Qualifications:
- Hands-on CNC lathe machining experience that includes independent setups and changeovers
- Ability to read and interpret mechanical drawings and apply dimensions at the machine
- Working knowledge of standard G-code/M-code with the ability to understand and edit existing programs; programming from scratch is not required
- Strong understanding of cutting tools, workholding, speeds and feeds, offsets, drilling, boring, and threading
- Ability to recognize incorrect tool calls, unsafe tool movement, or other conditions that could damage the machine or part
- Experience using micrometers and basic shop inspection equipment
- Ability to work independently in a small-shop environment and manage work responsibly with limited supervision
CompensationThe hourly rate for this position is expected to be between $26.00 - $32.00 per hour, depending on geographic location, experience and other qualifications of the successful candidate. This position is also eligible for year-end profit sharing based on the employer's applicable program.
