We are seeking a detail-oriented and experienced CNC Programmer / Machinist to program, set up, and operate CNC machines. This dual role requires expertise in both programming (CAD/CAM) and hands-on machining to produce precision parts to tight tolerances. Ideal candidates are problem-solvers who can take parts from print to production with minimal supervision.

Key Responsibilities

• Program CNC mills and/or lathes using Mastercam, Fusion 360, or other CAM software.
• Set up machines, select appropriate tools, and load materials.
• Operate CNC machinery to produce parts according to blueprints and specifications.
• In-process inspection of finished parts using precision measuring instruments (e.g., calipers, micrometers, CMM).
• Adjust offsets and tooling as necessary to maintain tight tolerances.
• Read and interpret technical drawings, GD&T, and CAD files.
• Troubleshoot machining or programming issues and suggest improvements.
• Maintain cleanliness and organization of work area and equipment.

Required Qualifications

• 3+ years of experience as a CNC Programmer with CAD/CAM software such as Mastercam (preferred), Fusion 360, etc.
• CNC and manual machining experience (mills, lathes, grinders).
• Proficient with G-code, M-code, and CNC controls (e.g., Fanuc, Haas, Mazak, etc.).
• Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings and GD&T.
• Understanding of machining various metals and materials (aluminum, stainless steel, etc.).
• Experience with fixturing, +/-.0002” tolerancing, machine process improvements.
• Skilled in the use of measuring tools and inspection equipment.
• Familiarity with lean manufacturing or continuous improvement.
• Excellent problem-solving skills and attention to detail.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with 4-axis or 5-axis CNC machining.

• Having at least 3 years of experience as a CNC Programmer working with CAD/CAM software such as Mastercam or Fusion 360.
• Operating both CNC and manual machining equipment, including mills, lathes, or grinders.
• Be proficient with G-code, M-code, and CNC controls such as Fanuc, Haas, or Mazak.
• Have experience in aerospace
