Machinist

Position Overview

We need a machinist— not a maintenance tech.

This is a MACHINIST position. Not maintenance. Not repair. We want someone who lives and breathes metal removal — turning raw stock into precision parts. If you have look at a blueprint and already know how you'd machine it, we want to talk to you NOW. ADVANCED MATHEMATICAL SKILLS NEEDED

Pay: $28–$38/hr. We pay for talent and we're not afraid to go higher.

MILITARY VETERANS — HEAVILY ENCOURAGED TO APPLY. Your skills transfer BIG. Precision, discipline, technical know-how — it maps directly to what we do here. We are actively recruiting Navy vets.
