Machinist

ATA Gears is an internationally recognized manufacturer of bevel gears, with expertise built on a long, nearly 90‑year history, a modern machine base, uncompromising quality, and people who are passionate about power transmission and continuous development.

We are now looking for a Machinist to join our team in a permanent position.

Your key responsibilities

As a machinist, your workday begins with a shift handover and a review of the ongoing job. During the day, your tasks include interpreting technical drawings, planning machine setups and tooling, and performing machining either on CNC or manual machines. On CNC machines, you will also carry out programming and program adjustments. New programs are created for new jobs, while existing ones are developed and optimized. Some tasks require more advanced independent programming skills.

Your work also includes measuring components, ensuring quality, and developing working methods. The work is mostly independent but not solitary — support is always available from experienced colleagues and supervisors when needed.

Machinery and working environment

ATA Gears operates a wide and technically demanding range of machinery, including specially manufactured manual gear‑hobbing machines and modern CNC machines. Our CNC machines use Siemens, Heidenhain, Multus, and Mazatrol controls. The machine base includes equipment from DMG, Mazak, Multus, Carnaghi, Fermat, and Mikron. We provide thorough training for machining tasks, and sufficient time is allocated for learning each machine.

Induction and training

Your onboarding at ATA Gears follows a structured training plan. General orientation covers our operating practices, and machining tasks are taught by an experienced machine operator working on the same machine. We always reserve enough time for training, and in the beginning, work is guided and done in pairs. Our onboarding process consistently receives excellent feedback from new employees.
