Well-established and busy precision machining company in Tempe, AZ seeking an experienced CNC Lathe Setup Machinist to manufacture complex, tight-tolerance components, including aerospace and defense-related parts.
The successful candidate must have a strong fundamental understanding of CNC turning, machining geometry, insert/tool geometry, tool wear, work-holding, inspection, and process control. This is not an entry-level CNC operator position and is not intended for someone whose primary experience consists of loading machines, changing inserts, and making basic wear offsets.
Qualifications
- Minimum 5 years of hands-on CNC lathe machining experience.
- Strong experience performing complete machine setups, not simply operating an established process.
- Demonstrated experience machining tight-tolerance aerospace, defense, or similarly demanding precision components.
- Experience interpreting complex engineering drawings, GD&T, tolerances, and machining requirements.
- Strong understanding of CNC lathe tooling and insert geometry.
This is a direct-hire, long term career opportunity with a stable organization.
