Job Description
We are a rapidly expanding company with extreme growth over the last year — and we’re just getting started. New projects are coming in daily, and we’re running top-of-the-line CNC machines to meet demand.
We’re looking for a highly experienced CNC Lathe Setup Technician who can step into a fast-moving environment and take charge of complex, high-precision setups. If you know how to get a lathe running efficiently, accurately, and with confidence, we want to hear from you.
What You’ll Be Doing
Perform efficient setups on CNC lathes for both prototype and production runs
Work on new and varied projects regularly — no boring, repetitive days
Optimize tooling, Workholding, and programs for speed and precision
Troubleshoot issues and work closely with programmers and operators
Maintain a high standard of quality, accuracy, and shop organization
Contribute to process improvements as we scale up our capabilities
What We're Looking For
Deep experience with CNC lathe setups
Strong understanding of offsets, tooling, blueprint reading, and inspection
A self-starter who thrives in a fast-paced, high-mix shop environment
Someone who takes pride in craftsmanship and knows how to get the job done right
This is a role for a true professional — someone who’s ready to be a key player on a high-performing team.
A Message to Former Gunite Employees
We recognize the skill and dedication of the team at Gunite, and we’re actively looking to bring that talent into our shop. If you were affected by Gunite’s recent closure and have experience working in or maintaining a machine shop, we’d love to talk to you.
