Love Working
With
Your Hands? Precision Is Your Passion?
We're on the hunt for a
highly skilled Manual Machinist
to join our team and help shape the future—literally. If you take pride in old-school craftsmanship, love solving machining challenges, and know your way around a Bridgeport or a lathe like it’s second nature, you might be exactly who we're looking for.
This is
not
a button-pushing CNC role. This is hands-on, creative, precision work—the kind of machining that builds real skill, not just setups and programs. If you know what it means to make chips fly, keep reading.
What You’ll Be Doing
Running the shop’s
classic workhorses : Bridgeport, manual lathes, milling machines, drill presses, grinders, and turret lathes Reading blueprints
and making precision parts to spec—tight tolerances, no shortcuts Using
micrometers, calipers, and indicators

one-off jobs , custom components, and specialty parts Troubleshooting, problem-solving, and making smart adjustments on the fly Finishing your work like a pro: deburring, grinding, polishing Keeping your workspace clean, safe, and organized—because real pros take pride in their bench What You Bring to the Table

Deep experience with:
Manual lathes Bridgeport and other manual mills Surface and cylindrical grinders Drill presses Vertical turret lathes
Strong knowledge of
metals, tooling, speeds/feeds, and materials Excellent blueprint reading and
shop math
(geometry, trig, etc.) Precision measuring like a true craftsman Mindset & Soft Skills:
Laser-sharp
attention to detail A true
problem-solver
who can think on your feet Confident working
independently
and taking ownership of your work Clear communicator, team player, and always looking to improve Love working with your hands and seeing a project through Physical Side of the Job
On your feet most of the shift (8–10 hrs) Lifting parts up to 50 lbs Maneuvering around machines with ease Good vision and depth perception for those ultra-tight tolerances Comfortable using your hands all day long—precision and dexterity matter Why This Job Rocks
Manual machinists aren’t just operators—they’re artists of the trade. In this role, you’re not just making parts, you’re
solving problems ,
building craftsmanship , and
making things that matter .
This is:
Custom, low-volume work
where your skill really shines No CNC waiting time —you’re in control of the process A job that rewards precision, speed, and pride in your work Preferred (But Not Required)
5+ years of manual machining experience Trade school or vocational training in machining Experience in a
tool room
or
job shop
setting Strong understanding of shop safety and OSHA regs What It’s Like Here
Classic job shop environment You'll hear machines running and smell the cutting oil—it’s the real deal Fast-paced but focused on
doing the job right Full PPE provided and enforced— safety
is non-negotiable Pay & Perks
$25 to $35/
hr
depending on your ability and experience Work that challenges you every day— no two jobs
are
exactly the same Be part of a team that
values skill over automation Ready to Make Chips
Fly
and Make a Difference?
