Like working with your hands, fixing things, or figuring out how things work? You may have the skills to start a career in CNC machining - even if you've never worked in a machine shop.
Plastic Ingenuity is looking for mechanically inclined, dependable people who want to learn a skilled trade. You'll receive hands-on training from experienced CNC machinists and Tool & Die professionals while developing skills you can build into a long-term career.
You'll start by learning our equipment and machining fundamentals and take on more advanced work as your skills grow.
We can teach machining. We're looking for mechanical aptitude, dependability, and a willingness to learn.
You may be a great fit if you have experience or interests in:
Recent graduates, career changers, and people looking to enter the skilled trades are encouraged to apply.
Don't meet every qualification? Apply anyway. If you're mechanically inclined and willing to learn, we'd like to meet you.
This isn't a job where you'll push the same button and make the same part every day. Our shop is low-volume and high-variety, giving you opportunities to work on different projects and continue developing your skills.
Your career could grow from:
CNC Operation → Setup → Programming → Precision Machining → Mold Building → Tool & Die
You don't need to already be a machinist to start becoming one. Apply today.
