CNC Milling Machinist (Second Shift)
Posted: August 31, 2026
We are partnered with an AMAZING manufacturer in Grove City, OH on their search for experienced CNC MACHINISTS (2nd SHIFT). This role requires strong 4- and 5- axis milling experience within a high-mix, low volume production environment, and is responsible for maintaining quality, making in-process adjustments, and ensuring parts consistently meet tight tolerances.
The CNC Machinist (2nd Shift) hours are Monday-Thursday from 4:00pm-2:30am, and will require up to one month of training on first shift.
Responsibilities:
Operate multiple 4- and 5- axis CNC Horizontal Machining Centers (HMCs), many with the help of automation
Interpret complex blueprints, GD&T, and customer specifications for one-off and short-run production
Load raw materials, secure workpieces, change tools, and make offsets for efficient and accurate machining
Make in-process adjustments including tool wear offsets, work offsets, and minor machine corrections
Inspect and measure finished parts using calipers, micrometers, CMM, and other precision tools
Review and understand CMM reports to verify dimensional accuracy
Complete inspection and production reports to ensure documentation and workflow accuracy
Troubleshoot machining issues, offsets, and tooling problems to maintain part quality and uptime
Maintain clean, safe, and organized work areas in accordance with shop standards and 5S principles
Assist with continuous improvement initiatives to reduce setup time, scrap, and cycle time
Optimize machining processes by recommending updated tooling, fixturing, and cutting strategies
Monitor production of parts and address issues as they arise
Perform other duties as assigned
Requirements:
3+ years of CNC Machining Experience; 4- and 5- axis HMC experience highly preferred
Strong understanding of tooling, workholding, and different types of metals
Strong understanding of CNC programming and Fanuc Controls, including the ability to edit and troubleshoot G & M codes
Ability to read and interpret complex blueprints, drawings, and GD&T
Proficient with precision measuring instruments and inspection techniques, including CMMs
