CNC Mill Machinist – Senior Level

Corvus Engineering is a precision manufacturing and product development company serving medical, aerospace, industrial, and consumer product clients. We run a clean, organized, high-trust shop and take pride in doing difficult work well.

We are looking for a senior-level CNC Mill machinist who can operate independently, think strategically, and take ownership of our turning capability.

This is not a machine operator role. This is a leadership-level machinist role.

• Own CNC Mill setups from start to finish
• Interpret complex prints and CAD models
• Develop machining strategy for 3-axis and multi-axis parts
• Select tooling, work holding, and process flow
• Program or modify CAM programs (Fusion 360 preferred)
• Optimize cycle times while maintaining quality
• Hold tight tolerances consistently
• Perform first article inspections
• Troubleshoot and solve machining problems without supervision
• Contribute to continuous improvement in shop processes

You will be expected to think like a machinist, not just follow instructions.

• 5+ years CNC milling experience
• Strong setup experience including multi-operation and complex parts
• Deep understanding of feeds, speeds, tool engagement, and toolpath strategy
• Ability to read complex mechanical drawings and interpret GD&T correctly
• Experience holding tight tolerances in production environments
• Programming experience strongly preferred (Fusion 360 or similar CAM)
• Strong problem-solving ability and process troubleshooting skills

• 4th or 5th axis machining
• Complex fixture design
• Medical or aerospace manufacturing experience
• CMM or advanced inspection experience
• Experience improving and standardizing shop processes

• You take pride in craftsmanship
• You do not cut corners
• You care about efficiency and quality
• You want to build something, not just clock in
• You want autonomy and responsibility
• You value honest communication and continuous improvement
• You contribute to a positive, no-drama shop environment

• Competitive pay based on experience
• Clean, professional shop environment
• High trust culture
• Direct collaboration with engineering
• Opportunity to shape and grow our milling capability
• Interesting and challenging work

We are building a team of high ownership machinists. If you want to just run parts, this is not the right fit. If you want to own your craft and level up a shop, we should talk. If this position interests you but you’re not completely qualified, please reach out anyway. Ambition and attitude are more important than individual skills.
