If you want to know about actual Machinist openers, I just released an optimization write-up on them on the Balance Discord and it's been added to our guide:

The Balance 5.X Machinist Guide

Machinist is not the only job you got wrong. All of your openers are off down to the the logic behind your raid buff alignment. I urge you to join our discord and talk to other theorycrafters if you want to improve your work because currently it's a far cry from anything optimized.
So, before we even get to the Machinest mechanics, why exactly is my buff alignment logic off? As I stated way in the beginning, may classes have a lot of build-up to their openers, MCH included (the battery gauge).

That said, I do realize that I might have 1 or 2 less heat blasts than I should and there are places where I should have put in a Gauss round and Ricochet rather than where I did, so I'll need to re-edit it later. Thank you for the feedback.
