Manual Machinist

About the role

Triosim Corporation is a growing network of industrial service and manufacturing companies serving the pulp, paper, plastics, oil and gas, steel, manufacturing, converting, and food & beverage industries across the U.S. and Canada. Our machinists, millwrights, and technicians keep heavy equipment running for customers who can't afford downtime — and that reputation is built one precision part at a time.

Working from blueprints, engineering drawings, and work orders, you'll set up and operate manual engine, turret, and large-capacity lathes to produce, repair, and remanufacture precision components — industrial shafts, rotors, screws, cylinders, and pump components — to tolerances as tight as ±0.001". This is a hands-on role for a machinist who owns their setups and their results.

Responsibilities

• Set up and operate manual engine, turret, and large-capacity lathes for turning, facing, boring, threading, drilling, knurling, and grooving.
• Interpret blueprints, engineering drawings, work orders, and GD&T to plan each job.
• Select the right tooling, feeds, speeds, and cutting fluids for ferrous and non-ferrous materials.
• Machine components to close tolerances, typically within ±0.001".
• Verify your own work with micrometers, calipers, dial indicators, bore gauges, and depth gauges, and document results as required.
• Remanufacture and repair industrial pumps and related components to restore them to spec.
• Deburr, finish, and prepare parts for the next operation or for shipment.
• Keep your machine and work area maintained, clean, and organized.
• Follow all safety policies, including lockout/tagout (LOTO) and required PPE.
• Work alongside supervisors, quality personnel, and other trades to hit production and quality targets.

Requirements

• High school diploma or equivalent.
• Technical certificate or associate degree in machining/manufacturing technology, or a completed machinist apprenticeship, preferred.
• Minimum of 2 years of hands-on manual lathe machining experience.
• Ability to read and interpret blueprints and technical drawings.
• Proficiency with precision measuring instruments.
• A demonstrated track record of holding tight tolerances.
• Working knowledge of feeds, speeds, and tooling selection across a range of materials.
• Solid shop math: fractions, decimals, and basic trigonometry.
• Comfort working independently with minimal supervision.
• Experience operating large or heavy industrial lathes.
• Experience machining or remanufacturing industrial rolls, shafts, or cylinders.
• Ability to grind custom tooling.

Work environment

Active machine-shop/manufacturing environment with exposure to noise, coolant, metal chips, and varying temperatures. Frequent standing, bending, and reaching; lifting up to 50 lbs, with lifting aids used for heavier loads. PPE required at all times: safety glasses, steel-toed footwear, and hearing protection. Overtime and shift work may be required based on production demand.
