CNC Programmer Mill Tech

Overview
Join our dynamic manufacturing team as a CNC Programmer Mill, where your expertise will drive precision and efficiency in machining operations. In this role, you will develop, optimize, and troubleshoot CNC programs for milling machines to produce high-quality components. Your mechanical knowledge and programming skills will ensure seamless production workflows, supporting our commitment to excellence and innovation. This position offers an exciting opportunity to work with advanced manufacturing technologies in a fast-paced, collaborative environment dedicated to continuous improvement.

Duties

• Develop and write CNC programs for milling machines using CAM software such as Mastercam or SolidWorks CAM, ensuring optimal tool paths and machining strategies.
• Interpret complex blueprints, schematics, and technical drawings, applying GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing) standards to ensure precise manufacturing.
• Set up CNC milling machines, including loading tooling, fixtures, and work pieces, to prepare for production runs.
• Conduct toolpath verification through simulation software to prevent collisions and ensure accuracy before actual machining.
• Perform machine calibration and alignment using precision measuring instruments such as bore gauges, calipers, micrometers, and coordinate measuring machines (CMM).
• Troubleshoot machining issues related to tooling, fixtures, or programming errors; implement corrective actions promptly.
• Collaborate with design engineers using CAD software like AutoCAD or CATIA to review designs and suggest manufacturability improvements.
• Maintain detailed documentation of programs, setups, and process changes to support quality control and continuous improvement initiatives.
• Other tasks as directed.

Requirements

• Proven experience programming CNC milling machines using Fanuc controls or similar systems.
• Strong proficiency in CAD/CAM software such as SolidWorks, AutoCAD, or CATIA for designing parts and generating machine code.
• Solid understanding of blueprint reading, schematics, and GD&T principles for accurate interpretation of technical drawings.
• Mechanical aptitude with knowledge of tooling selection, machining processes, and precision measuring instruments including micrometers, bore gauges, calipers, dial indicators, and coordinate measuring machines (CMM).
• Familiarity with lean manufacturing principles to optimize workflows and reduce waste.
• Experience with electrical discharge machining (EDM) is a plus but not required.
• Ability to read schematics and electrical diagrams; basic electrical knowledge is advantageous.
• Strong math skills for calculating dimensions, tolerances, speeds/feeds, and geometric relationships.
• Excellent problem-solving skills with a focus on quality assurance in manufacturing environments.
• Effective communication skills to work collaboratively with team members across departments. Join us as a CNC Programmer Mill and be part of a forward-thinking team dedicated to precision engineering! Your expertise will help us produce innovative solutions while advancing your career in a vibrant manufacturing setting that values skill development and continuous

We are an equal employment opportunity employer.
