# Senior CNC Machinist

> Laborup · Cedar City, United States · — · Posted 2026-07-31

**Workplace:** on_site

## Description

**Overview**

We're hiring Senior CNC Machinists for our precision medical and prototyping shop in Cedar City, UT.

The work is high-mix, low-volume: complex prints, unproven prototype setups, and tight tolerances on large-format material. Parts run on large-format 5-axis CNC milling centers, and most jobs are new the first time you see them.

Machinists here own the process end to end — blueprint interpretation, multi-axis setup, workholding, first article prove-out, and final inspection — and work directly with engineers on part design. 5-axis experience is preferred, not required.

**Why Join Us**

-   **Own the whole part:** Print through final inspection stays with one machinist.
-   **Prototype variety:** New setups on unproven parts, not repeat production.
-   **Engineer access:** Work directly with engineers on design and manufacturability changes.

**Compensation**

-   **Base pay:** Market competitive and hourly — open to discussion. Tell us what you need.

**Hiring on 1st and 2nd Shift**

-   Monday - Friday

## Requirements

**Responsibilities**

-   **Setups:** Set up and run large-format CNC mills and lathes
-   **Prove-Out:** Take unproven prototype parts from first article through final run.
-   **Print Interpretation:** Apply GD&T to complex blueprints, routings, and engineering models.
-   **Workholding:** Build fixturing strategies around tool clearance and collision avoidance.
-   **Program Edits:** Adjust feeds, speeds, offsets, and tool comp at the control.
-   **Inspection:** Verify tight tolerances with micrometers, indicators, and precision gauges.
-   **Design Feedback:** Recommend part changes that improve manufacturability.
-   **ERP Entry:** Record quantities and process adjustments in the ERP system.

**Qualifications**

Required

-   3+ years CNC machining in precision work
-   Set up complex jobs independently, start to finish
-   Read complex blueprints and apply GD&T
-   Hold tight tolerances on complex geometries
-   Read and write G/M-code at the control
-   Inspect parts with micrometers, indicators, and gauges
-   Solid feeds, speeds, and tool wear fundamentals

Preferred

-   5-axis milling experience
-   Large-format machinery experience
-   Advanced workholding and fixture design
-   Prototype or first-article prove-out experience
-   Machining advanced and exotic alloys
-   Troubleshooting dimensional or tooling issues at the machine
-   ERP system experience
