Job Description

We’re hiring CNC Machinists for our precision medical manufacturing operation.

You’ll machine high-precision medical components on modern 3-, 4-, and true 5-axis CNC mills, horizontal machining centers with pallet changers, and advanced DMG equipment. This is a high-mix, low-volume environment where you’ll own independent setups, first-piece quality, process adjustments, and tight-tolerance production—not stand at one machine running the same part all day.

What makes this role different:

  • Significant income opportunity: 10-hours of overtime, 15% shift differential, and double-time after 56 hours.
  • 100% paid healthcare: Company-paid medical coverage.
  • Interesting work: High-mix, low-volume production with independent setups.
  • Modern equipment: True 5-axis mills, horizontal machining centers, and DMG machines.
  • Real training: 2+ month onboarding plus cross-training on additional equipment.
  • Long-term stability: Growing medical manufacturer investing in people and production.

Compensation

  • $75 - $85k / yr
  • $27–$32/hr
  • 10 hours guaranteed overtime / wk
  • Double-time pay after 56 hours

Shift

  • 2nd Shift
  • Monday - Friday

Responsibilities

  • Machine Setups: Perform independent setups and fixture changeovers.
  • Machine Operation: Run multiple CNC machines throughout each shift.
  • Tool Offsets: Make wear offsets and process adjustments.
  • Quality Inspection: Perform first-piece and in-process inspections.
  • Precision Measurement: Verify dimensions using precision measuring equipment.
  • Blueprint Reading: Interpret engineering drawings and complex job instructions.
  • Documentation: Record inspection results and production data in Epicor.
  • Operator Maintenance: Maintain coolant, lubrication, and machine readiness.

Preferred

  • Medical, aerospace, automotive, or military manufacturing
  • Hands-on 5-axis machining experience
  • DMG, Makino, Mikron, or Robodrill experience
  • Strong GD&T knowledge
  • ISO 9001 manufacturing experience
  • Technical or trade school education
  • Stable employment history

About Laborup

Laborup is the #1 AI powered talent platform for America’s industrial workforce. We use AI to create jobs, not take them away. We help HR and plant leaders hire and keep the skilled workers who keep plants running: machinists, welders, maintenance techs, operators, industrial electricians, and engineers. USA Today called us the “LinkedIn for blue collar workers,” and Forbes profiled our work in “How AI Is Solving America’s 1 Trillion Dollar Manufacturing Labor Crisis.”

Today we work with manufacturers from 50 person shops to large public companies with tens of thousands of employees, and the story is the same everywhere. It is hard to find talent, hard to keep good people, and staffing costs keep rising. In a market where filling critical industrial roles can take months and turnover is constant, Laborup helps teams move qualified workers from first contact to on site interview in days instead of weeks and keep them on the floor longer.

Most of the workers our customers need are not on LinkedIn or the usual job boards. Laborup uses AI to find this hidden workforce, call and text them, screen and qualify them, build real profiles, and match them directly to the plants and roles where they can succeed. For workers, that means real, permanent roles at serious manufacturers, not one off gigs. For companies, it is durable infrastructure for hiring and retention at scale in a labor market that will stay tight for years.

We work across nuclear, defense, and advanced manufacturing, as well as sectors like aerospace, automotive, and food production. Teams that use Laborup hire 5 to 10 times faster, see around 3 times better retention, and cut cost per hire by up to 50 to 70 percent. That turns into fewer empty shifts, fewer missed orders, more stable teams, and more capacity without more headache.

We are building the modern talent system for America’s industrial base with a simple long term goal: put a billion industrial workers to work in good jobs that matter.
