About this opportunity

JOB IMMEDIATE: CNC MACHINIST WANTED. KEEP READING.

Modern Plastics in Shelton, CT, is hiring TWO (2) experienced CNC Machinist for our plastics fabrication and machining team.

Here's what we need: someone with real hands-on experience running CNC routers or milling centers, who understands machining fundamentals, and who can set up a job independently, accurately, and without hand-holding.

What you'd actually be doing:

- Setting up CNC routers — tooling selection, fixturing, offsets, program loading

- Reading and interpreting engineering drawings, blueprints, and work instructions

- Running first article inspections and adjusting setups to hold dimensional accuracy

- Verifying material, tooling, and job readiness before production starts

- Troubleshooting setup issues, tooling wear, and machine performance

- Keeping a clean, organized station and following safety protocol

- Working with programmers, supervisors, and production staff to improve how we machine things

- Handling the physical demands that come with the job

What we're looking for:

- 3+ years of CNC machining or CNC router setup experience preferred

- Solid grasp of machining practices, tooling, and measurement equipment

- Can work independently and as part of a team

- Actually cares about quality, safety, and getting better at the job

- Mastercam knowledge is a plus

Here's what you'd be part of. Modern Plastics distributes, fabricates, and machines plastics for industries that don't accept "good enough" — medical device, defense and aerospace, semiconductor, energy, and advanced manufacturing. We're ISO 9001, AS9100D, AS9120B, and ISO 13485 certified. We've been doing this since 1945. My grandfather started it, I've run it for over four decades.

On pay — I'm not going to insult you by dancing around it. We don't play games with what we pay people; the benefits are real, and when we win as a company, you see it in profit sharing. Actual money in your pocket. That's not a perk we can turn off — it's our business model.

I'm handling these inquiries myself.

If you have a resume, send it. If you don't, that's fine — just tell me what you've run, what you're good at, and why -but please, read the "What we're looking for" paragraph.

That's what we are looking for, those are the skills we need and the only positions we are hiring for at the moment.
