Join a company where precision meets purpose.

At Gaishin Manufacturing, we don't just make great parts — we build a great place to work. As a family-owned, second-generation manufacturer, we combine cutting-edge CNC technology with a team-driven, values-first culture. We’re on a mission to grow with integrity, humility, and bold innovation — and we want you on the journey.

Why You’ll Want to Work Here:

  • Culture that matters – Built on faith, people, and excellence
  • Tight-knit team – We succeed together, not solo
  • Stability meets growth – Be part of a company that’s expanding across industries like aerospace, medical, defense, and agriculture
  • Leadership that invests in you – Coaching, training, and tools for you to thrive

What You'll Do:

As a CNC Machinist on our night shift, you’ll operate and maintain multi-axis machines with a sharp eye for detail, quality, and efficiency. This is more than just a job — it's a role where your skills help drive a high-performing team forward.

Your day-to-day:

  • Set up, operate, and troubleshoot Swiss-style and/or mill-turn CNC machines
  • Inspect with precision using calipers, micrometers, and other tools
  • Read and interpret complex blueprints and GD&T documentation
  • Keep your station clean, organized, and optimized for production
  • Maintain top-notch quality standards in every part you produce

What We’re Looking For:

This role isn’t for everyone — it’s for those who take pride in doing things right and doing them well.

Must-haves (non-negotiable):

  • Minimum 2 years of CNC operation experience
  • Familiarity with high-speed machinery and mechanical measurements
  • Solid understanding of geometric tolerancing (GD&T)
  • Ability to read and interpret blueprints, manuals, and schematics
  • Strong communication skills and attention to detail
  • Willingness to learn, take initiative, and work as part of a team
  • Physical stamina — able to walk/stand for full shift

About Us:

At Gaishin Manufacturing, we believe Great God. Great People. Great Company. Great Parts. That’s not just a tagline — it’s how we operate. We live by five core values:

  • Integrity & Humility
  • Winning Attitude
  • Team Player
  • Consider It Done
  • Takes Initiative

We’re proud to supply world-class parts across vital industries — and even prouder of the people who make it possible.

Are you ready to take the next step?

This is your chance to work with a company that truly values its people. If you’re an experienced CNC machinist who thrives in a culture of growth, excellence, and teamwork — apply now.
