Job description

Full-Time | On-Site

About the Role

We're looking for an experienced CNC Programmer to join our machining team. In this role, you'll develop efficient, accurate toolpaths and programs for both milling and turning operations, working closely with machinists to bring precision parts from print to production. If you take pride in clean code, tight tolerances, and finding smarter ways to cut metal, we want to hear from you.

What You'll Do

  • Serve as one of two primary programmers that set the pace for the production line.
  • Create and optimize CNC programs for mills and lathes using Mastercam, Cam Assist, and Fusion 360
  • Program complex multi-sided parts on 5-axis machining centers, including simultaneous 5-axis toolpaths where appropriate
  • Interpret engineering drawings, GD&T, and 3D models to plan the most efficient machining strategy
  • Select appropriate tooling, speeds, feeds, and work holding to maximize quality, tool life, and cycle time
  • Generate setup sheets, tool lists, and operator documentation
  • Work directly with machinists to prove out new programs, troubleshoot issues at the machine, and refine processes
  • Collaborate with engineering and quality to resolve design-for-manufacturability questions and dimensional issues
  • Maintain organized program libraries, post processors, and tooling databases

What We're Looking For

  • 3+ years of hands-on CNC programming experience in a production or job-shop environment
  • Proficiency with Mastercam, Cam Assist, Fusion 360 — you're comfortable writing programs from scratch in both if necessary.
  • Strong experience programming for CNC mills, including 5-axis machining centers (3+2 positional and full simultaneous 5-axis)
  • Strong experience programming for CNC lathes (live tooling and multi-axis turning a plus)
  • Solid understanding of machining fundamentals: speeds and feeds, tool selection, fixturing, and work coordinate systems
  • Ability to read and interpret complex blueprints and GD&T
  • Working knowledge of G-code and M-code — you can read, edit, and troubleshoot programs at the control
  • Experience with a variety of materials (steel, stainless, aluminum, plastics; exotics a plus)
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to work cross-functionally with engineers, machinists, and quality

Nice to Have

  • Experience with post processor editing and customization, especially for 5-axis kinematics
  • Familiarity with CMM programming or inspection processes
  • Background as a machinist before moving into programming
  • Experience with probing, tool setters, or in-process gauging
  • Experience programming mill-turn or multi-task machines

What We Offer

  • Competitive pay based on experience
  • Health and dental insurance available
  • Paid time off and holidays
  • Stable, full-time schedule
  • Opportunities to grow your skills on new machines and technologies
