Job Description

Own the Cut. Command the Craft.
Join Northeast Tool — an award-winning aerospace manufacturer where precision meets pride. We’re looking for skilled CNC Setup Machinists (Mills or Lathes) ready to take on complex, tight-tolerance parts — or level up into 5-axis and multi-axis machining with hands-on training.
What You’ll Do
Set up and operate CNC mills or lathes to produce aerospace-grade components.
Work with 3- to 5-axis DMG Mori mills (Siemens 840D) or multi-axis lathes (live tooling, sub-spindles, c / y axis).
Interpret G-code or conversational programs, align fixtures and tooling, and verify dimensions.
Run first-piece inspections and maintain 5S and safety standards.
Collaborate with Engineering and Quality to ensure precision and consistency.
What You Bring
- 3+ years CNC machining
- experience (mill or lathe setup).
Strong blueprint reading, GD&T, and measurement skills.
Experience holding tolerances within ±0.0002"–0.0005".
Familiarity with Siemens, Fanuc, or OSP controls (a plus).
High school diploma or GED.
Even Better
5-axis or multi-axis experience (DMG Mori, Grob, Okuma, Makino).
AS9100 or aerospace shop background.
Experience with high-temp alloys (Inconel, Monel).
NIMS or GD&T certifications, or Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt+.
Not 5-Axis Yet?
If you’re an experienced 3-axis machinist or setup expert eager to grow, we’ll train you on Siemens 840D and multi-axis systems. Skill, curiosity, and craftsmanship matter most here.
