Mazatrol Applications Machinist, CNC Lathes (2-4 Axis)

Job Description

Job Description Own the outcome: from concept on paper to chips on the floor

Picture this: a new print lands on your bench. You map the strategy, write Mazatrol or G-code at the machine, set fixtures and offsets, and run a flawless first article. You spot a minor vibration, tweak the toolpath and parameters, and lock in a stable, repeatable process. That’s your craft—start to finish.

Core responsibilities

• Create or modify programs at the machine (Mazatrol and G-code) directly from blueprints.
• Set up CNC turning centers: install fixtures, load tooling, establish tool registers, and apply work/geometry offsets.
• Establish machine control settings; complete first-article prove-outs and release to production.
• Continuously monitor cycles, diagnose malfunctions, and make in-process adjustments to maintain capability.
• Inspect parts for dimensional accuracy and surface finish per print and GD&T.

Technology environment

• Mazak controls: Mazatrol T-32, T+, Fusion, Matrix, Smooth Control
• CAM platforms: Mastercam and Mazatrol

Background that fits

• High School diploma or GED.
• 3–5 years’ experience preferred within a production manufacturing setting.
• Hands-on with 2-, 3-, and 4-axis CNC lathes; live tooling and Y-axis experience is a plus (not required).
• Strong in CNC programming, G-code, M-code, and production setups.
• Ability to troubleshoot and program PLCs to support production.
• Experience on Mazak turning centers; CNC Swiss (Star) exposure is advantageous.
• Comfort interpreting GD&T and validating compliance.

Brands you’ll work with

• Mazak
• Star (CNC Swiss)

Compensation & benefits

• Competitive pay
• 401(k) with company match
• Paid time off and holidays
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance

If you thrive on building reliable, production-ready processes and take pride in parts that meet print the first time, this is your next move.
