Why This Job Is Worth Considering

MIT Lincoln Laboratory's Fabrication Engineering Group builds the hardware behind national security research programs — one-off and short-run prototypes with no existing playbook. As Sr Machinist, you'll own quality on complex prototype work, collaborate directly with engineers on parts that are still being defined, and mentor less experienced machinists in the shop. It's a senior hands-on role with real influence over how the shop runs, backed by the resources of an FFRDC operated by MIT.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Program, set up, and operate CNC milling and turning equipment
  • Maintain machine tools and shop equipment
  • Own quality and adherence to tolerances and specifications on your work
  • Keep your workspace organized and safe
  • Collaborate with engineers on complex prototype development
  • Mentor less experienced machinists
  • Contribute ideas for shop efficiency improvements

Machines, Controls and Software

Core work is CNC milling and turning, plus manual machining equipment. CAM software, 3D CAD, and Microsoft Office are used daily.

What We're Looking For

Required

  • 10+ years of hands-on experience in subtractive manufacturing (milling and/or turning)
  • CNC programming and operation experience (milling and/or turning)
  • Manual machining equipment experience
  • Mechanical drawing and GD&T proficiency
  • Fixture design and fabrication capability
  • Proficiency with CAM software, 3D CAD, and Microsoft Office
  • Hand tool and inspection equipment competency
  • Ability to lift up to 50 lbs

Clearance

This role requires a Secret-level DoD security clearance that you must be able to obtain and maintain, including a pre-employment background investigation. MIT Lincoln Laboratory is an Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) employer; U.S. citizenship is required.

Pay, Benefits and Schedule

$44.63–$48.65 per hour, based on experience (Job Grade RDTEU-INSPECSR). Standard hours, with occasional overtime to meet critical program milestones. Relocation assistance is available for this role.
