# Senior CNC Machinist

> Laborup · Claremore, United States · — · Posted 2026-07-06

**Salary:** USD 60,000–70,000

**Workplace:** on_site

## Description

**Overview**

We're hiring Senior CNC Machinists for our precision machining facility in Tulsa, OK. We build advanced custom equipment for the construction and utilities industries in a climate-controlled, high-mix, low-volume shop.

The parts are large-format, and the floor is built for them: gantry 5-axis mills, large-format 5-axis mill-turns, vertical turret lathes (VTLs), horizontal mills, and multi-pallet systems — much of it Mazak. You'll build your own setups, prove out new programs, and edit G-code right at the machine.

**Why Join Us**

-   **Hone Your Craft**: Cross-train on large-format machines few shops run.
-   **Culture of Ownership**: Family-owned feel and collaboration.
-   **Rewarding Growth**: Training, profit sharing and rapid raises as your skills expand.

**Compensation**

-   **$29 – $34 / hr**
-   $4,000 sign-on bonus
-   Profit sharing + rapid raises

**Shifts**

-   **2nd Shift**: 4:30 PM – 3:00 AM (M-R)
-   **Weekend Shift**:6:00 AM – 6:00 PM (F-S)

**What You'll Run**

-   Mazak mills and lathes across much of the floor
-   Large-format 5-axis mill-turns
-   Gantry 5-axis mills
-   Vertical turret lathes (VTLs)
-   Horizontal mills
-   Multi-pallet systems for continuous production

You don't need experience on these exact machines. If your CNC fundamentals are solid and you're ready to learn large-scale work, we'll train you on the rest.

**Responsibilities**

-   **Setups**: Build complex setups from scratch, including custom workholding when none exists.
-   **Prove-Outs**: Run first prove-outs of new programs and machining processes.
-   **G-Code Editing**: Read, edit, and optimize G-code/M-code directly at the control.
-   **First Articles**: Size in parts using offsets, micrometers, calipers, gauges, and indicators.
-   **Troubleshooting**: Resolve machine, tooling, material, and non-conformance issues on the fly.
-   **Blueprints & GD&T**: Read complex drawings and hold strict GD&T tolerances.
-   **Mentoring**: Train other machinists and suggest process improvements on the floor.
