CNC Machinist – Build Aerospace Parts That Actually Matter
📍 Lebanon, Ohio (Between Cincinnati & Dayton)
If you’re a serious CNC machinist, you already know the difference between a job… and a shop worth staying at.
This is the latter.
💰 $28 – $40/hr + OT (You Control It)
- Pay based on real skill—not titles
- Overtime available (Fridays/weekends optional)
- 4-day workweek → 3-day weekends standard
🛠️ What You’ll Actually Be Doing
- Setup, program, and run precision CNC work (not just loading parts)
- Hold tight aerospace / medical / hydraulic tolerances
- Machine parts where precision actually matters—not high-volume throwaways
Machines You’ll Run
- Swiss (Citizen / Mitsubishi controls) w/ bar feeders
- Mazak CNC lathes
- Fadal VMCs (4 & 5-axis)
- Makino 4-axis horizontal w/ pallet changer
(If you’ve run even a couple of these, you’ll fit in fast.)
🔩 Materials You’ll Work With (This Is Real Machining)
- Titanium & Inconel (aerospace-grade, heat-resistant alloys)
- 17-4 PH stainless, 4140/4340 alloy steels
- Hardened steels used in hydraulic pumps & motors
- Medical-grade stainless and specialty alloys
👉 Tight tolerances. Demanding materials. No shortcuts.
👉 This is the kind of work that separates true machinists from button pushers.
