A Snapshot of Your Day


Join our team as a Horizontal Lathe Computerized Numerical Control (CNC)

Machinist, where your expertise will be pivotal in manufacturing large

generator shafts for the power generation industry. Imagine working on shafts

that can reach up to 46 feet in length and weigh as much as 275 tons! You will

adhere to safety requirements, follow engineering drawings, and execute

manufacturing processes with precision. Your role will involve performing

setups, collaborating with crane operators, and aligning workpieces in the

lathe. With a focus on continuous improvement, you will engage with your

technical support team to enhance machining techniques and contribute to our

knowledge base. Your ability to work independently while fostering

collaboration will ensure successful product delivery to our global customers.

How You’ll Make an Impact



  • You will semi-finish and

    finish machining of large electrical generator rotor shafts made from

    alloy steel forgings, weighing up to 275 tons.


  • Setup and align rotor

    forgings using steady rests to ensure precision and stable machining

    processes on various large-scale CNC lathes.


  • Interpret engineering

    drawings and quality control documents to guarantee accurate machining and

    error-free results.


  • Inspect work during

    machining stages using advanced measuring devices to verify conformance to

    engineering requirements.


  • Participate in

    continuous improvement initiatives through the application of the 5S

    methodology within a Lean Production System.


  • Mentor employees in the

    Siemens Energy Apprenticeship Program, sharing your technical expertise

    and providing guidance.


  • Maintain records and

    reports as required, ensuring accurate documentation of processes.


What You Bring



  • A High School Diploma or

    GED equivalent is required.


  • At least 4 years of CNC

    lathe operations experience, preferably with steady rest supports; manual

    turning experience is a plus.


  • Less experience is

    acceptable if you have completed a 2-year degree from an accredited

    machinist training program focused on CNC machining.


  • Familiarity with CNC

    controls such as Siemens, Fanuc, or Mazak is essential.


  • A minimum of 2 years of

    experience using basic measuring instruments and gauges.


  • Proficiency in

    interpreting G and M codes and understanding CNC machine operation

    principles.


  • Strong ability to

    interpret complex drawings and use precision measuring tools effectively.


  • Willingness to obtain

    fork truck and crane licenses through Siemens Energy’s internal

    certification programs.


  • Ability to obtain an

    ACT® WorkKeys® National Career Readiness Certificate (Silver Level or

    higher) as part of the pre-hire assessment.


  • Physical capability to

    manually lift moderately heavy parts (up to 50 lbs).


  • Successful applicants

    must pass standard hearing, vision, and pulmonary function tests as

    required.
