A bit about us:

Founded more than 25 years ago and based in Kenosha, Wisconsin, we are a U.S. manufacturer of precision aluminum hand wheels, knobs, and handles. We CNC-machine A356-T6 aluminum castings to engineering tolerances, then polish and inspect the finished parts. We also provide custom milling and turning to customer drawings and specifications, including work in aluminum and stainless steel for industries such as pharmaceutical, dairy, and oil.

Why join us?

Own the daily machining schedule and coach machinists on setups, troubleshooting, and inspection.
Lead work across CNC milling and turning, with a mix of established product lines and custom work built to customer drawings.
See parts through machining, polishing, and final inspection, with room to improve changeovers, reduce scrap, and make repeat jobs more consistent.

Job Details

Key Responsibilities and Duties:
  • Plan daily work across CNC mills and lathes. Assign jobs based on due dates, machine capacity, and operator skill.
  • Train and coach machinists on setups, tooling, offsets, workholding, and in-process checks.
  • Read drawings and verify first-piece results before releasing jobs to production. Help resolve dimensional or finish issues before more parts are run.
  • Troubleshoot tooling wear, chatter, dimensional drift, and inconsistent castings. Determine whether to adjust the process, change tooling, or hold the job for review.
  • Coordinate machining handoffs to polishing and final inspection. Flag material, equipment, and capacity issues that could affect delivery.
  • Track output, downtime, scrap, and rework. Use recurring issues to improve setup instructions, changeovers, and repeat-job consistency.
  • Reinforce safe machine operation and coordinate maintenance when equipment issues interrupt production.

Needed:
  • Recommended starting point of 5+ years of hands-on CNC machining and 2+ years leading machinists as a supervisor, foreman, or working lead.
  • Independent setup and troubleshooting depth in CNC milling or turning, with enough working knowledge of both to support the team.
  • Ability to interpret engineering drawings, verify tolerances with precision measuring tools, and resolve first-piece or in-process inspection failures.
  • Experience assigning work, training operators, and managing competing production priorities.
  • Aluminum machining or cast-part experience preferred. Stainless steel, custom machining, and G-code editing are additional advantages.
