Experienced Machinist
About the Role
We're hiring CNC Machinists who are ready to take full ownership of their machines, setups, and the quality of what comes off them. This is a great fit for someone who doesn't just run parts, but also handles job setups, tool touch-offs, and consistent, high-quality output from start to finish.
You'll be a key piece of keeping production moving smoothly and holding the standards our customers count on.
What You'll Do
- Handle complete machine setups — workholding, tooling, and offsets
- Touch off tools and make adjustments as needed during production runs
- Run CNC mills and/or lathes (Haas, Makino, or Mori Seiki experience a plus)
- Read and interpret blueprints and GD&T
- Check parts against specs to confirm quality
- Watch machine performance and flag opportunities to improve
- Keep your workspace clean, organized, and safe
- Stay in close communication with programmers, quality, and leadership
What You Bring
- 3+ years of CNC machining experience
- Solid track record running setups independently
- Hands-on experience touching off tools and adjusting offsets
- Strong blueprint reading ability
- Comfort with tight-tolerance work
- Production or job shop background preferred
Who Thrives Here
- Reliable — shows up and owns their machine
- Detail-oriented — genuinely cares about quality
- Mechanically minded — understands the "why," not just the "how"
- Takes pride in the work — craftsmanship matters
KORMACHINE is part of a Texas legacy dating back over one hundred years. Native Texan August Kaspar traveled to South Texas in 1890 where he found employment as a ranch hand on the Kokernot Ranch located in Gonzales County. As time permitted he began making wire horse and mule muzzles with nothing more than his hands and a pair of pliers. By 1904, August had become so successful selling his hand made products that he quit farming and began his business venture full time. The first labor saving machine August acquired was a hand cranked wire straightening and cutting machine.
One hundred years later, since launching KORMACHINE, fifth generation manufacturer Colter Kaspar has the most innovative and modern equipment on the market today. With the AS9100 certification, KORMACHINE machines products for the aerospace & aircraft, railway, automotive, and oil & gas industries to name a few. Based in Waco Texas and using the latest technology in tool and work holding to ensure a precise, high quality part, Kormachine utilizes high-end tooling and application resources to keep costs low and turnaround times within customers needs. Understanding and exceeding customer needs is the primary goal of KORMACHINE and verifying part quality and conformity are key factors in this commitment to customer satisfaction
