As a Manual Machinist 2, you will independently produce metal parts using manual lathes and mills. This role requires strong setup and operating skills, the ability to read and interpret complex blueprints, and consistent use of precision measuring tools.

• Solid understanding of machining principles and manufacturing processes
• Experience operating manual lathes and mills independently
• Ability to accurately measure, inspect, and document parts to meet tolerances
• Proper and consistent use of machining tools and safety equipment

Job Duties & Responsibilities:
• Independently set up and operate manual lathes and mills
• Select, install, and change tooling as production needs require
• Ensure all parts meet GEM Equipment quality standards
• Monitor and maintain machine fluid levels
• Accurately complete all required paperwork and job documentation
• Inspect finished parts and verify conformance to specifications
• Assist in training and supporting Machinist 1 employees or trainees
• Safely operate a forklift as needed
• Maintain a clean, organized work area and sweep at the end of each shift
• Perform basic machine maintenance and troubleshoot minor issues
• Possess and maintain personal precision tools
• Wear required PPE at all times (steel-toed boots, safety glasses)

Expectations:
• Work independently with minimal supervision
• Maintain high productivity while producing quality parts
• Continuously look for ways to improve part quality and reduce cycle time
• Demonstrate a positive attitude and willingness to learn
• Effectively multitask, including running multiple machines when required
• Communicate clearly with supervisors regarding issues or improvements
• Maintain a strong safety record and follow all safety protocols
• Be punctual with consistent and reliable attendance
• Work collaboratively in a team-oriented environment

Preferred (Not Required):
• Vocational or technical training in Machining, Precision Manufacturing, or CNC/Manual Machining
• Forklift certification
• OSHA 10 or 30 certification
• Experience mentoring or training junior machinists
