🔥 CNC Machinist— Synthetic Fuel Plants 🔥

📍Zone 1 London 5 days on site 📍

💷 £45k–£60k + Equity 💷

Highly Successful well funded Energy Startup and are recognised as one of the key players within the Sythentic Fuel Industry are looking for an CNC Machinist.

👔 Responsibilities:

• Work directly with engineers to understand drawings and decide the best way to manufacture each part
• Programme parts in CAM software (Fusion 360), then set up and run 3-axis CNC mills and lathes start to finish
• Machine stainless steel and aluminium components — bespoke one-off R&D parts through to repeat batches of 50–100
• Help scale production as the company moves from one system a quarter, to one a month, to one a week over the next year
• Deliver finished, inspected parts where they are needed, and help assemble complex R&D equipment

👤 Candidate profile

• 3–4+ years of professional machining experience, though attitude and ability count for more than the number
• A formal qualification in machining or engineering eg Degree
• Confident setting up and operating CNC mills and lathes (Hurco WinMax a plus, 3-axis is plenty)
• CAM programming, setup and execution in Fusion 360
• Comfortable across varied materials and varied parts — tubing, valves, stainless, aluminium, alloy steels, plastics
• High agency. You work quickly with very little supervision, and you are motivated by the energy transition and by building genuinely difficult hardware
• Mission-driven hardware companies under ~500 people that machine their own parts in-house, fusion, space, defence or deep-tech startups, not subcontract shops or large aerospace and automotive production lines.

Nice to have: experience running series batches alongside R&D one-offs, manual mill and lathe skills, and a history of building things for the fun of it.
