Description
Join a Company Where You’re More Than Just a Number — Become Part of the Carlson Team!
Carlson Tool & Manufacturing is growing, and we’re looking for a skilled 2nd Shift 5-Axis Machinist who wants more than just a job — they want a role that values precision, rewards performance, and offers career growth.
Why Carlson?
Based in Cedarburg, WI, we’re a family-owned company with an over 65-year tradition of investing in our people and our technology.

You’ll work in a clean, climate-controlled, well-equipped facility where your skill and attention to detail make a real impact. If you’re someone who takes ownership, likes solving problems, and enjoys a quieter, more focused second shift — you’ll feel right at home here.

- Less traffic, quieter floors, focused work
- Higher pay and more flexibility
- Paid mealtime included
What You’ll Get:

And did we mention perks like our on-site Carlson Recreational Center? Think weightlifting, cardio, a golf simulator, pickleball court, and more — open to employees and their families.
What You’ll Bring to the Table:
- Proficiency in operating 5 Axis Machining Centers — required
