Do we know that's what that means yet? Surely it would be a class with no job if you leveled it 1-60...
I think that this means that Machinist IS the job. Also, many people believe that the job will start around lvl 30 or higher, instead of all the way down at lvl 1. Think like the dark knight from WoW. These new classes will likely require that you have one other max level character already, and function more as "hero" classes that start at higher levels.

This way, players still have to go through the traditional roles in order to get access to these other jobs. SQEnix could even go this far.

DRK KNIGHT - Must have a paladin or warrior to lvl 60 in order to have access to the job
ASTROLOGIAN - Must have a scholar or white mage at lvl 60
MACHINIST - Must have another dps class to lvl 60 in order to access
