Cnc Programmer

What You'll Do: Develop and maintain multi-axis CNC programs using Mastercam CAD/CAM software. Program advanced 5-axis 3+2 machining; simultaneous 5-axis programming experience is highly desirable. Collaborate with Process Engineers, machinists, supervisors, and other programmers to develop effective machining processes. Use Vericut machine simulation to verify programs and help ensure collision-free machining. Interpret engineering drawings, GD&T requirements, tooling information, and process specifications. Conduct program reviews, test runs, and troubleshooting to ensure programs produce quality parts to specification. Optimize cutting strategies, speeds, feeds, tooling, workholding, and machining sequences for quality and efficiency. Design workholding and fixtures using SolidWorks and/or Mastercam. Troubleshoot machining and programming issues and provide technical support to machinists and supervisors. Incorporate machine probing routines into CNC programs for validation and in-process inspection. Utilize Custom Macro B programming to develop special functions as required. Contribute to continuous improvement and standardization of CNC programming and manufacturing processes. Take ownership of programming projects and work collaboratively to support customer delivery commitments. Perform other duties as assigned by the Engineering Manager or Director of Engineering.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR: Required 5+ years of Mastercam experience in a production machining environment; less experience may be considered for entry-level candidates with strong technical skills. Proven experience programming 5-axis 3+2 machining. Experience in a close-tolerance milling environment. Strong understanding of GD&T.Strong mechanical aptitude and ability to interpret complex engineering drawings. Ability to understand machining parameters, including speeds, feeds, depth of cut, tooling, and horsepower requirements. Strong mathematical skills, including geometry, trigonometry, fractions, ratios, and proportions. Self-motivated, dependable, flexible, and highly detail-oriented. Ability to organize, prioritize, communicate, and manage multiple projects. Strong problem-solving skills and a willingness to take ownership of projects from concept through production. Preferred / Plus5-axis simultaneous programming experience. Vericut experience. SolidWorks experience. Custom Macro B programming experience. CNC probing and in-process inspection programming experience. Additional experience in advanced multi-axis machining and process development.#Maintenance BranchCA
