Job description

Shape What’s Next in Precision Manufacturing

In Houston, TX, your day starts on the production floor—work orders in hand, blueprints open, and a CNC machine ready for your expertise. You’ll set up the job, dial in tooling, load programs, and verify offsets to produce parts that meet exacting specifications. As cycles run, you’ll keep an eye on performance, make smart adjustments, and verify quality so every component meets company standards.

A Day in the Role

You review technical drawings and work orders, prep the machine for the run, and conduct a careful first-article check. Throughout the shift, you monitor operations, troubleshoot alarms or variances, and complete routine maintenance to keep equipment performing at its best. You finish by documenting results, inspecting final parts for accuracy and finish, and maintaining a clean, safe, and organized work area. Along the way, you collaborate with teammates to streamline steps and boost throughput.

What You’ll Do

  • Set up and run CNC equipment to produce high-quality parts aligned to specifications and standards.
  • Interpret blueprints, technical drawings, and work orders to guide each setup and operation.
  • Continuously monitor machining operations and fine-tune parameters to sustain optimal performance.
  • Perform routine maintenance and troubleshoot issues on CNC machines.
  • Inspect completed components to confirm accuracy and quality against company requirements.
  • Keep the workstation orderly and safe, following all safety protocols.
  • Partner with team members to refine processes and raise productivity.

What You Bring

  • High school diploma or equivalent; a machining-related technical certificate or degree is a plus.
  • Demonstrated experience operating CNC machinery in a similar position.
  • Solid knowledge of CNC equipment and programming fundamentals.
  • Ability to read and interpret technical documentation and blueprints.
  • Exceptional attention to detail and strong problem-solving ability.
  • Clear communication skills and a collaborative approach to teamwork.
  • Flexibility to work varied hours with overtime when needed.
  • Join a team where precision matters, your voice is heard, and your craftsmanship shapes real-world results—right here in Houston.
