This position is ideal for individuals who thrive on tackling the toughest challenges in the production of complex medical products, semiconductor capital equipment, aerospace, defense, and industrial products. With a culture that values endless improvement and cutting-edge technology, Reata offers a unique opportunity for machinists to grow and excel in their careers.
Job Details
Position Title:
CNC Operator or CNC Machinist
Position Type:
Full-Time, Non-Exempt
Available Shifts:
Weekdays, Weeknights, Weekend Days, Weekend Nights
Pay Range:
See below[1]
Overview
As a CNC machinist, you will use blueprints, sketches, or computer-aided design (CAD) and manufacturing files to produce precision parts. You will set up different types of CNC equipment for your work to accomplish goals with accuracy while also maintaining high production rates. You will make sure your CNC machines are set up correctly, functioning properly, and producing parts that meet the required specifications.
The role of our CNC machinists is to operate and maintain CNC machines. This includes reviewing sample parts against drawings or CAD models to ensure accurate production and take precise measurements for cutting/shaping tasks using appropriate machine settings. Your responsibilities include reviewing samples, drawings, or instructions to understand the specifications for the machine output, taking measurements and marking material for cutting or shaping, and planning the sequence of necessary actions for completing a job. Your responsibilities also include selecting appropriate machines and their positions needed for a given job, loading material for that job, determining, and programming the size of batches and the machine speed needed, monitoring machines while they are in operation to adjust the feed, maintaining proper temperature, identifying any issues that may need correction, checking the machine output to ensure consistency with specifications, discarding defects, keeping records of approved final products, and performing routine machine maintenance or performing corrective maintenance actions.
Skills
Our CNC machinists are required to be proficient in all aspects of CNC machining, including milling, turning, close tolerance manufacturing, and more. Proficiency in CAD software is essential. They should have the ability to use precision tools for Quality Control and Metrology (such as calipers), be able to take accurate measurements, have knowledge of the properties of metal and other materials, and possess the ability to read blueprints, schematics, and manuals. They also require physical stamina and strength to lift heavy items and be possessive of good math skills.
Characteristics
Our CNC machinists love working with computers. They enjoy the challenge of troubleshooting when things go wrong and are detail-oriented since they are usually producing parts with tight tolerances where even fractions of a millimeter count. They have a passion for creating things and are effective at time management.
Our CNC machinists also possess good problem-solving skills and the ability to adapt quickly to changing conditions. CNC machining is, by far, an automated process, but automation is not a guarantee of problem-free production. There will always be things that need to be adjusted or unforeseen issues that will arise. Our CNC machinists are also team players since they work closely with engineers, production supervisors and quality control inspectors.
Additional characteristics include:
Ability to read blueprints and part drawings.
Programming and setup of CNC machines.
Ability to set up and operate machine tools for drilling, milling, and deburring.
Knowledge of properties of metal and other materials.
Knowledge of reading calipers and gauges.
On-the-job CNC machining experience.
