Role Title: CNC Machinist
Role Type: Contractor
Location: Remote
We are engaging CNC Machinists to contribute expertise to a customer's project focused on advanced part production and process optimization. In this role, you'll apply your expertise to help train next‐generation AI systems. Your work will shape how models learn, reason, and perform through high‐quality, real‐world input. No prior experience in AI is required — your domain knowledge is what matters. This engagement centers on operating and setting up both hobbyist (e.g., Makera Carvera) and industrial (e.g., Haas VF-2) CNC machines, interpreting engineering documentation, and troubleshooting across a range of materials and geometries. Contributors will provide input on machining processes, best practices, and issue resolution, ensuring high standards of quality and consistency throughout the project.
Scope of Work
Set up and operate CNC machines across multiple platforms, including desktop and industrial models




Load and verify CNC programs, install tooling, configure work-holding, and set work offsets for various projects
Run first-piece cycles, inspect machined parts against drawings, and adjust setups to ensure dimensional accuracy
Perform routine machine maintenance and diagnose issues such as tool wear, chatter, or dimensional drift
Utilize precision measurement instruments (calipers, micrometers, indicators, CMM) to validate parts and ensure compliance with specifications
Interpret engineering drawings, GD&T; callouts, and manufacturing documentation to guide part production
Collaborate and provide feedback to CAM programmers and other stakeholders on setup optimization and manufacturability
Preferred Qualifications
5+ years of hands-on CNC machining experience, including both setup and production
Expertise operating Haas control systems (VF-2 or similar platforms) required
Familiarity with hobbyist/desktop CNC pl
