Pinewood Tool is a family owned, high-precision job shop, and we're hiring a Precision Grinder to join our first shift. You'll handle surface and OD grinding on tooling and components for short-run, tight-tolerance work where flatness, parallelism, concentricity, and finish all need to be right the first time.
This is a hands-on role for someone who takes pride in reading a print, picking the right wheel, dressing it well, and bringing parts in to spec.
What you'll do
- Surface (flat) grinding to hold flatness and parallelism
- OD grinding to hold concentricity and runout
- Fine surface-finish control to print specification
- Work to Pinewood's capability of holding tolerances to .0001″
- Set up your own jobs, select and dress wheels, and perform in-process inspection
- Machine from blueprints, applying GD&T
- Take ownership of your work and stand behind the result
What we're looking for
- 10+ years of precision grinding experience in a toolroom or short-run job shop
- Hands-on experience with precision hand grinders, spin fixtures and wet grinders
- Demonstrated ability to hold tight tolerances on flatness, parallelism, concentricity, and runout
- Strong wheel selection and dressing skills across materials and finishes
- Solid blueprint reading and applied GD&T knowledge
- Comfortable with standard toolroom metrology — micrometers, indicators, height gauges, surface plates, surface-finish testers
- High school diploma or equivalent
- Detail-oriented, dependable, and team-minded — a fit for our culture of ownership, attention to detail, continuous improvement, and teamwork
Why Join Pinewood Tool
You'll have the opportunity to shape the future of a growing precision machine shop where technical excellence matters. This role offers significant autonomy and the chance to make a lasting impact on our operations, team, and customer relationships.
Benefits
Competitive salary, paid holidays, paid vacation, health insurance (if applicable), retirement plan (if applicable), professional growth opportunities, and a collaborative team environment.
