Overview

We are seeking a hands-on CNC Machinist / Manufacturing Engineer to join our team. This is not a pure machinist role. About 70% of time will be machining parts, building tools, and making fixtures; the remaining 30% will focus on design for manufacturability, programming, and supporting broader engineering / manufacturing efforts. The ideal candidate thrives in a fast-paced environment where workloads vary month to month and enjoys moving between CAD / CAM work and running machines on the floor.

Responsibilities

  • Program, set up, and operate CNC equipment, including :
  • CNC lathes
  • CNC 3-axis mills
  • CNC 5-axis mills (preferred)
  • Use Fusion 360 CAM to generate toolpaths and optimize machining strategies
  • Design and fabricate tools, jigs, and fixtures to support machining and assembly processes
  • Fabricate and assemble precision components, subassemblies, and prototypes to support R&D and production
  • Interpret engineering drawings and CAD models to produce precision components
  • Collaborate with engineers to improve designs for manufacturability and assembly
  • Support light R&D and prototyping during lower machining demand periods
  • Maintain equipment, manage tooling, and keep a clean, safe shop environment

Qualifications

  • 10+ years of CNC machining experience; hybrid machinist / engineer background preferred
  • Proficiency with Fusion 360 CAM required
  • Experience designing and building fixtures, jigs, and custom tooling
  • Skilled in both lathe and mill operation; 5-axis mill experience highly desirable
  • Strong blueprint reading, GD&T, and measurement / inspection skills
  • Comfort with varying workloads - flexible to switch between heavy machining and lighter engineering / R&D support
  • Self-starter, hands-on, collaborative, and comfortable in a small, fast-moving company

    • Why Join Verterra

  • Be part of a team shaping the future of distributed energy
  • Work on projects with direct national security and environmental impact
  • Small team = big responsibility, visibility, and growth potential

    • Verterra Energy does not discriminate on the basis of race, sex, color, religion, age, national origin, marital status, disability, veteran status, genetic information, sexual orientation, gender identity or any other reason prohibited by law in provision of employment opportunities and benefits.
