  • MEPCO
  • Grand Rapids, MI

Job Description

Company: MEPCO LLC
Location: Grand Rapids, MI 49512
Pay: $24–$35/hour, DOE
Job Type: Full-Time
Shift: Monday–Friday, 7:00 AM–3:30 PM (40 hrs/week, no overtime)
Experience: Experienced operators; setup experience a plus
Machines: Haas CNC mills, plus 2 Mori Seiki mills with robotic arms
Controls: Fanuc, Haas

Why This Job Is Worth Considering

MEPCO has manufactured steam traps, pumps, valves, and heat exchangers for steam and hydronic heating systems since 1903, working out of its Grand Rapids facility. The mill department runs mostly Haas machines, plus two Mori Seiki mills equipped with robotic arms for automated part handling. The shop is air-conditioned, uses water-based coolant, and stays quiet, with about 20 employees total.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Run 2-3 CNC mills at a time, handling tool changes, part loads, and part checks
  • Self-inspect parts, following a first-piece/last-piece double-check process
  • Machine Class 30 gray iron to tolerances of ±0.005", with some features at ±0.003"
  • Build troubleshooting skills over time — the area MEPCO's team says takes longest to develop
  • Work production lots of 20,000-50,000 parts, large by CNC standards
  • Use shop-provided tools, or bring your own if you prefer

Machines, Controls and Equipment

  • Haas CNC mills with Fanuc/Haas controls
  • 2 Mori Seiki mills with robotic arms for automated part handling
  • Materials: Class 30 gray iron

What We're Looking For

Required: Prior hands-on CNC machining experience. Entry-level candidates are not being considered for this opening.

Preferred: 1+ year running a CNC mill for setup-capable consideration; programming familiarity is a plus, though MEPCO does not want new hires rewriting existing programs.

Pay, Benefits and Schedule

Pay is $24-$35/hour depending on experience, benchmarked each year against a local wage study. Schedule is Monday-Friday, 7:00 AM-3:30 PM — 40 hours straight, no overtime.

  • Medical, dental, and vision (HMO)
  • 401(k) with 100% match up to 4%
  • Life insurance
  • $125/year safety shoe allowance; gloves, safety glasses, and hearing protection provided
  • Annual bonus
  • Vacation starting at 4 days after 90 days, growing toward 25 days over time
