CNC Setup Operator / CNC Machinist

Hartman Enterprises, Inc. is a third-generation, family-owned precision machining company growing our aerospace and defense manufacturing business.

We are a precision shop-not a high-volume parts factory. Our machinists work on a variety of jobs, setups, materials, and challenging parts. If you enjoy hands-on setup work, troubleshooting, and producing high-quality precision components, we want to hear from you.

This position requires prior CNC setup experience. Machine-tending experience alone does not qualify.

What You'll Do

• Independently set up and operate CNC mills and/or lathes.


• Install tooling, fixtures, workholding, and establish offsets.


• Load and verify programs, setup sheets, and tooling requirements.


• Read blueprints, tolerances, and GD&T.


• Complete first-piece prove-outs and in-process inspections.


• Use micrometers, calipers, indicators, bore gauges, height gauges, and other precision measuring tools.


• Make tool offsets and minor program adjustments.


• Troubleshoot tooling, dimensional, setup, and machine-related issues.


• Work with Quality, Engineering, and Production to resolve problems.


• Maintain accurate production and inspection documentation.

What We're Looking For

• Proven CNC setup experience.


• Ability to take a job from setup through first-piece approval.


• Strong blueprint reading and measurement skills.


• Knowledge of tooling, fixtures, speeds, feeds, and workholding.


• Strong attention to detail and commitment to quality.


• Dependable attendance and ability to work independently.

Preferred: Aerospace or defense experience; Mazak, Doosan, Fanuc, multi-axis, mill-turn, twin-spindle, or live-tooling experience; GD&T knowledge; AS9100/ISO experience; CNC programming or editing skills.

Schedule

Monday–Friday, 7:00 AM–3:30 PM
Overtime and occasional weekends as needed.

Benefits

• Competitive pay plus overtime


• 401(k) with company match


• Medical, dental, and vision insurance


• Health Savings Account (HSA)


• Paid time off and holidays


• Training and professional development

Why Hartman?

You won't spend every day loading the same part and pressing cycle start. Our machinists work on new setups, challenging parts, and precision aerospace and defense components where skill and craftsmanship matter.

Applicants must meet applicable ITAR U.S. Person requirements.

Position requires the ability to work safely in a CNC manufacturing environment, stand for extended periods, use precision measuring equipment, and lift up to 50 lbs. as needed.
