OD Manual Cylindrical Grinder Operator
JOB DESCRIPTION
We are looking for an experienced manual cylindrical grinder operator. This is not a CNC job. You will be running a conventional OD grinder by hand — setting up, grinding, and measuring your own parts start to finish.
RESPONSIBILITIES
• Set up and operate a manual cylindrical grinder to grind shafts, pins, and round parts to print
• Hold tolerances of ±0.0002″ or better — consistently, not occasionally
• Dress your own grinding wheels and select the correct wheel for the job
• Measure your own parts using micrometers, bore gauges, and comparators
• Read blueprints and work orders — understand dimensions, tolerances, and surface finish callouts
• Identify and correct issues like chatter, burn, or taper independently
• Keep machine clean and perform basic daily maintenance
JOB REQUIREMENTS
• Minimum 2 years hands-on experience specifically on a cylindrical grinder
• Must know how to use a micrometer and precision measuring tools (will be tested)
• Must be able to read a mechanical blueprint
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
• Experience with ID (internal) grinding
• Vocational or trade school training in machining
• Familiarity with GD&T
IMPORTANT NOTE
Experience on CNC machines alone does not qualify for this role. If you have not personally set up and run a manual cylindrical grinder, please do not apply.
WHAT WE OFFER
• $25–$35 per hour depending on experience
• Insurance benefits
• Overtime possibility
• Stable, long-term position in an established shop
• Independent setup — no step-by-step supervision provided
JOB TYPE: Full-time
BENEFITS:
• Employee assistance program
• Life insurance
WORK LOCATION: In person
