Build Something That Matters-Every Day
At The Gund Company, our CNC Operators don't just run machines-they're skilled makers who bring complex, custom-engineered parts to life. If you take pride in precision, enjoy hands-on work, and want to be part of a team that values craftsmanship, accountability, and continuous improvement-this is where you belong.
Why This Role Stands Out
- You'll work on custom parts-not repetitive, assembly-line production

- Load materials, secure parts, and execute work orders based on specifications and blueprints
- Ensure parts meet quality standards through inspection and measurement
- Complete work order documentation accurately
- Perform routine machine maintenance and maintain a clean, organized workspace
- Collaborate with team members and assist with training others
- Follow all safety and quality standards while actively contributing ideas for improvement
What You Bring
- Ability to read blueprints and follow written instructions
- Experience operating CNC equipment or similar machining tools
- Strong attention to detail with a focus on quality and accuracy
- Basic to intermediate math skills and problem-solving ability
- Experience using measurement tools (calipers, gauges, etc.)
- Ability to work independently and manage priorities
- Willingness to work overtime as needed to support production
Preferred Experience
- Prior manufacturing or machining experience
- Vocational or technical training in machining or fabrication
- 5 Axis machine set-up and operation with Haas, Doosan.
