With over fifty years of proud service to the aerospace, defense, and medical device industries, our precision machining client is under new ownership and eager to take the firm to new heights. Crucial to their mission is an experienced CNC Programmer who has broad experience with Fanuc and Mitsubishi- controlled milling equipment and proficiency in Mastercam would ensure success in this position. True
5-axis programming experience is required as opposed to 3+2 positional.

Key Responsibilities:

• Utilize Mastercam software to generate complete CNC programs from technical drawings or customer-supplied data files for multi-axis milling machines.
• Collaborate with Planning, Quality, and Production teams to meet shop production goals and optimize machining processes.
• Create or modify programs as necessary to meet part design requirements, ensuring precision and adherence to specifications.
• Generate technical “drawings” or setup documentation from programs for use in shop production and estimating.
• Load and verify CNC programs on FANUC-controlled and Mitsubishi-controlled milling centers.
• Interpret complex engineering blueprints and apply geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T) principles.
• Follow Digital Product Definition (DPD) and quality verification procedures.
• Program CNC machining for a variety of metals, including aluminum, stainless steel, titanium, and Inconel.
• Maintain strict adherence to aerospace and defense quality standards and industry specifications.

Experience Requirements:

• 10+ years of combined CNC machining and programming experience in a machine shop environment and true 5-axis simultaneous motion programming experience
• 5+ years of hands-on experience with Mastercam or equivalent CAD/CAM software.
