Machinist, Bluefors Oy

Bluefors Oy is a Finnish high-tech company based in Helsinki, working at the absolute frontier of quantum technology. They design and manufacture some of the world's most precise cryogenic measurement systems - the kind of equipment that pushes the boundaries of what science can do. When you work here, your machining skills directly support cutting-edge research used by leading institutions and companies around the world.

As a Machinist at Bluefors, you'll be working with a 5-axis DMG Mori milling machine, producing precision parts from materials like copper, aluminium, brass, stainless steel, and POM. The work is varied - small series, tight tolerances where it counts, and surface finishes that matter. You'll have real influence over your work, not just push a button and repeat.
