Isembard
AI-driven distributed metal-component manufacturing
Isembard is rebuilding industrial capacity through a connected network of factories. We bring skilled people, advanced machine tools and our own software, MasonOS, together to make precision components for aerospace, defense, energy and robotics.
The parts you cut go into aircraft, defense systems, energy infrastructure and robots. This is a hands-on machining role where you own your work from the program to the finished part rather than handing it down a line.
The factory is still being shaped, so you will help improve the setup and influence the programming standards used across our sites. Benefits include medical, dental and vision insurance, a 401(k) with company match, paid time off and parental leave, a Wellhub gym and wellness membership, and a stocked kitchen at the factory.
Program, simulate and optimize toolpaths in 3-axis, 5-axis and mill-turn where it applies.
Set up, prove out and run jobs to aerospace and defense standards.
Own cycle time and machine utilization.
Choose fixturing, tooling and cutting parameters for aluminum, steels, titanium and Inconel.
Take new parts from drawing to repeatable production, with DFM feedback for the customer.
Strong CAM programming in Fusion, Hypermill, Mastercam or equivalent.
A record of holding tolerances of ±0.01 mm (about ±0.0004 in) or tighter.
Production experience setting and running high-end machines such as Hermle, DMG Mori or Mazak.
A solid understanding of feeds, speeds, tooling strategy and workholding.
Confident reading of complex drawings and GD&T.
This role involves access to ITAR-controlled technical data, so you must be a U.S. person (U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident, refugee or asylee).
Useful, not essential: aerospace, defense or other high-specification work, 5-axis simultaneous machining, probing, automation or pallet systems, AS9100 or ISO 9001, or an interest in robotics and data-driven manufacturing.
Isembard is an equal opportunity employer.
Isembard is a London-based software-first manufacturing network that runs AI-powered factories to produce high-precision metal parts for aerospace, defence, energy, and robotics. It uses modular factory builds and a franchise model with MasonOS—the AI-native operating layer that handles quoting, CAD/CAM, procurement, scheduling, quality assurance and logistics across 5-axis CNC and robotic cells. Factories hold ISO 9001, Cyber Essentials and JOSCAR certifications. The company has raised a $9M seed and a $50M Series A to grow to about 25 facilities by late 2026 in the UK, US, Germany, France and Ukraine, serving both defence/autonomy startups and established OEMs, and sometimes managing complete supply chains for customers.
