About the Role

The 5-Axis CNC Machinist is responsible for setting up and operating Hermle 5-axis machining centers to produce ultra-precision components, mold inserts, and tooling. This role requires strong multi-axis machining skills and the ability to consistently work within tolerances around 10 microns.

Key Responsibilities

• Set up and operate Hermle 5-axis machining centers (C-series or equivalent).
• Install and verify tooling, workholding, probes, offsets, and CNC programs.
• Perform complex multi-axis setups and ensure proper machine alignment.
• Optimize speeds, feeds, tooling, and machining parameters.
• Machine hardened steels, stainless steels, aluminum, and precision mold components.
• Perform in-process inspection and maintain required tolerances and surface finishes.
• Troubleshoot machining, tooling, setup, and dimensional issues.
• Work closely with CAM programmers, engineers, toolmakers, and quality personnel.

Who Are You?

You are an experienced 5-Axis CNC Machinist who is comfortable with complex setups, tight tolerances, technical drawings, and high-precision components. You take ownership of your work, understand the importance of accuracy, and enjoy solving machining challenges in a collaborative manufacturing environment.

What You Bring

• 3+ years of CNC machining experience, including 5-axis machining.
• Hands-on experience with Hermle machining centers or equivalent.
• Strong knowledge of multi-axis setups, workholding, and machining strategies.
• Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings and GD&T.
• Experience maintaining tolerances around 10 microns.
• Strong precision measurement and inspection skills.
• Ability to troubleshoot machining and setup issues.

Nice to Have
