Overview:

We are hiring multiple Senior CNC Machinists across mid and senior-level skill bands to support our climate-controlled, high-mix, low-volume precision machining facility in Tulsa, OK. We are an industry-leading manufacturer building advanced, custom equipment for the construction and utilities industries.

We operate a vast array of equipment—from 2-axis lathes to 5-axis vertical and horizontal mills, mill-turns, and more. Regardless of your industry background or the specific machines you have experience with, we have the team, training, and technology to support your growth.

Culture of Ownership:

Despite our scale, we maintain a strong family-owned feel that heavily values hard work, growth, and accountability. We care deeply about reliability—showing up on time, being ready at the machine, and taking pride in the craftsmanship of the parts you produce. This isn't a place where you just clock in and hide in a silo; our culture thrives on collaboration and a shared willingness to pitch in where production demands it. If you are a problem-solver who owns the job end-to-end, you will fit right in.
