Full time, 50+ hours a week

Direct Hire

A prototype shop in the Houston area is hiring a CNC mill machinist. They run no production at all, so no two weeks look the same and you need to be able to adapt to what is in front of you.

Responsibilities

  • Doing your own setups on the mill
  • Adapting to different jobs rather than repeating one part

Requirements

  • Able to do your own setups — this is not an operator seat
  • Has their own tools
  • Comfortable in a prototype or job-shop environment rather than production only

Benefits

  • Health benefits
  • 401(k)
  • Air-conditioned shop

Direct hire means you go on the employer's payroll from day one. Melben is the recruiter, not the employer, and our fee is paid by the company. Your certifications are verified with documented proof before we submit you, so the interview starts from trust.
