Job Summary
Owens Industries is looking for a 2nd Shift CNC Machine Operator who is dependable, mechanically inclined and interested in building a long-term career in precision manufacturing. This position works Monday through Thursday from 2:30 PM to 1:00 AM, with four 10-hour shifts and a three-day weekend every week.

This is not an assembly-line environment. Owens Industries specializes in ultra-precision machining for the aerospace and defense industries, producing complex, low-volume components from materials like titanium, Inconel, stainless steel and other high-performance alloys.
