4-Day Workweek | Overtime Available

TOPS Staffing is partnering with a well-established manufacturing company in  to hire experienced CNC Machinists for multiple afternoon shift openings.

• Strong mechanical aptitude and attention to detail
• Familiarity with precision measuring tools
• Ability to work independently and manage your own machine

Why This Opportunity Stands Out
• Contract-to-hire or direct hire options
• 4-day workweek with no weekend schedule required
• Consistent overtime opportunities
• Competitive pay with strong bonus potential
• Modern, well-maintained facility
• Long-term stability and growth opportunities

Benefits Once Hired by the Company
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• 401(k) with 6% company match
• Paid time off and paid holidays
• Life insurance and HSA options
