Earning a Paycheck and a Degree at the Same Time: Bob's Story

 

Bob started in HVAC—a job he was good at, but one with limited room to grow and no time to pursue his ambitions. At Lampin, he found work that challenged him and a company willing to invest in his education.

While building experience on the shop floor, Bob went back to school to achieve his dream of becoming an engineer, and took on more responsibility, mentoring newer teammates and leading complex projects. Today, as a Manufacturing Engineering Technician, Bob shows how far curiosity and a willingness to learn can take you.

From Bouncing Between Jobs to Building a Career: Zach’s Story

 

Before joining Lampin, Zach bounced between jobs—janitor, hairdresser, and more—without finding the right fit. His father, a longtime employee-owner, encouraged him to try machining. Starting on the shop floor, the work clicked: the precision, the rhythm, and the satisfaction of seeing real parts take shape. As he kept learning and earning trust, Zach moved into running advanced equipment. His story shows how the right place and the right people can turn uncertainty into a career that feels like home.

Building His Future One Part at a Time: Erik's Story

 

Erik studied criminal justice and spent years searching for a job that felt right. A friend pointed him to Lampin, where the advanced machines and precision work were intimidating at first—but the people weren’t. Experienced teammates stepped in to teach and guide him. Starting on a two-axis lathe, he built confidence one setup at a time and grew into running a multi-axis system that tackles complex parts in a single setup. His path shows how patience and a commitment to learning can lead to big impact.

From Heavy Lifting to High-Precision Machining: Mike’s Story

 

Mike came from the junkyard world—tough, physical work that built grit but left little room to grow. When his brother told him about an opening at Lampin, he decided to give machining a shot.

The work fit immediately, channeling his hands-on skill into precision and problem-solving. He learned the basics, then moved into programming and complex CNC setups. Today, Mike is known for his reliability and craftsmanship, proving that drive and curiosity can turn raw experience into a high-level trade.

Turning Good Jobs Into Great Careers: Keith's Story

Keith joined Lampin as Director of Operations with an engineering degree and years of leadership experience. What impressed him most wasn’t the equipment—it was the people. He believes good leadership means understanding the work and supporting those who do it, so he spends as much time on the floor as in the office. Under his guidance, Lampin has doubled down on training, mentorship, and continuous improvement. For Keith, success is seeing people grow, take ownership, and know their work matters.
