CNC Machinist - 2nd Shift - Layup

At Layup Parts, our mission is simple: deliver high-quality composite parts faster. We’re not just another machine shop—we’re a technology-first manufacturing startup that’s revolutionizing how composite tooling and parts are made for the aerospace, defense, and motorsports industries. Our customers are developing tomorrow's high tech products, and we are building technology to accelerate their success.

We design, machine, print, and build faster than anyone else in the industry, and we’re looking for machinists who thrive in high-performance environments and want to be part of the team that’s redefining what’s possible in advanced manufacturing. We value initiative and attitude and are building a team of outstanding individuals who take pride in their work, enjoy mentoring and learning from others, and are eager to tackle any challenge.

This position is supporting our 2nd shift. We offer $1.50 shift differential for the entire shift with a start time of 2:00PM.

• Set up and operate 3- and 5-axis CNC machines, including Zimmerman and HAAS mills.

• Run both billet and non-traditional stock (e.g., 3D prints, foam, castings).

• Collaborate with engineering to provide real-time DFM feedback and drive rapid iteration.

• Occasionally work with LFAM 3D printers and get hands-on with hybrid manufacturing workflows.

• Perform post-process and in-process inspection of molds, tooling, and final parts using standard metrology tools.

• Move quickly between R&D prototypes and low-rate production runs.

• Communicate actively across engineering, composites, inspection, and operations teams.

• Background in aerospace, defense, or motorsport tooling and mold making.

• Experience machining from complex or non-rectangular stock (e.g. foam blocks, prints, castings).

• Comfortable with Siemens or HAAS controllers.

• Past work in both R&D/prototype and production environments.

• Exposure to 3D printers (any type), hybrid workflows, or additive-subtractive processes.

• CAM experience with Tebis, Fusion, or ESPRIT.

• CAD familiarity with NX, SolidWorks, or CATIA.
