Description:

We’re hiring a CNC Machine Operator Trainee for our smart production floor — where automation, precision, and continuous improvement work hand in hand. You don’t need prior experience — just a strong work ethic, mechanical curiosity, and the discipline to work carefully without constant supervision. You’ll be trained by day-shift machinists first, learning the machines, safety procedures, and how to run production step by step. You’ll learn how to prepare the machine for production: zeroing axes, setting work offsets, loading tool libraries, and confirming safety protocols step by step. You’ll learn how to read tolerances, measure finished parts with calipers and micrometers, and know when something is slightly off before it becomes a defect. You’ll run aluminum, stainless, or plastics — and start to understand how different materials behave under speed, feed, and coolant changes. You’ll keep logs, follow production documentation, and report any defects or irregularities immediately. You’ll be responsible for first-part inspection, documenting dimensions, and flagging anything out of spec before it becomes scrap. You’ll follow safety protocols rigorously, using PPE and guarding systems to protect yourself and your team.

Basic Qualifications:

• Ultimately, ensure precision parts are produced accurately, efficiently, and safely—supporting the backbone of modern manufacturing.
• Adjust machine settings, tool offsets, or cutting speeds as needed to optimize efficiency and maintain tolerances.
• Help reduce waste by optimizing material usage, avoiding rework, and catching errors early in the production process.
• Ensure proper labeling, packaging, and transfer of completed parts to the next stage of production or quality control.
• Follow safety guidelines and wear appropriate PPE when working with machinery, sharp tools, or hot surfaces.

Preferred:

• Able to work with metals, plastics, or composites depending on production needs.
• Capable of performing routine maintenance such as cleaning machines and checking fluid levels.
• Wants to grow into roles like CNC Programmer, Lead Operator, or Manufacturing Technician.
• Willing to assist with tool changes, fixture setup, or process improvements.
• Pays close attention to machine sounds and wear signs to detect potential malfunctions early.

Benefits:

• Family-friendly environment — we respect your time at home.
• Your input matters — if something’s off, we fix it, not ignore it.
• Stable full-time work with zero guesswork — we believe in reliable schedules.
• Every part you make helps build something bigger — and that’s worth showing up for.
• Safety-first culture where PPE isn’t optional — and we provide it all.

You’ll learn the value of uptime, the cost of bad offsets, and how even small mistakes in automation can multiply fast if not caught early. You’ll follow a routine that rewards consistency, patience, and staying one step ahead of the process. You’ll learn new materials, tool types, and cutting techniques as we evolve our processes and expand our capabilities. You’ll work in a calm, focused environment where speed comes only after consistency, and no one rushes what must be exact. You’ll discover that this is more than a factory job — it’s a craft, and you’re learning to think in thousandths of an inch. You’ll operate with consistency, focus, and a respect for craftsmanship that goes beyond just pressing "start. You’ll finish this internship with real hands-on skill, industry vocabulary, and a clear sense of whether this path is truly yours. If you’re ready to treat metal like it matters — and build skill where shortcuts don’t exist — we’re ready to invest in your future. ” If you value quiet focus, technical skill, and the satisfaction of solo work done well — we’re ready to train you after dark.
