If You're a 5-Axis Machinist, Keep Reading.
Let's skip the corporate buzzwords.
If you're the person everyone turns to when a setup gets complicated, a tolerance is critical, or a difficult part has to run right the first time, this opportunity may be worth your attention.
We're working with a highly respected precision manufacturer in the Champaign area that is looking for an experienced CNC Setup/Operator with strong 5-axis milling experience.
Not someone who simply loads parts and presses cycle start.
A machinist.
Someone who understands the process. Someone who knows how tooling, workholding, programming, and machine performance all come together to produce quality parts.
Someone who takes pride in their craft.
What You'll Be Doing
You'll be setting up and operating advanced 5-axis machining centers producing precision components for industries where quality isn't optional. Aerospace, medical, defense, energy, and other demanding applications where every dimension matters.
This isn't a high-volume production environment where you'll run the same part all day, every day.
You'll work on challenging components, complex setups, and projects that require skill, attention to detail, and critical thinking.
Why Experienced Machinists Are Interested;
