Job Description
CNC ProgrammerPosition OverviewWe are seeking a skilled CNC Programmer to create, optimize and support CNC programs for turning, milling and millturn operations across highprecision production environments. The role focuses on converting engineering drawings into efficient Gcode using CAD/CAM systems, selecting tooling and machining strategies for Miyano, Swiss and Tsugami platforms and ensuring manufactured parts meet quality standards and aerospace/industrial requirements (ISO 9001, AS9100). The CNC Programmer will collaborate with production, quality and design teams to improve cycle times, reduce scrap and support continuous process improvement.
Key ResponsibilitiesDevelop, test and optimize CNC programs (Gcode) for lathes, mills, millturn and Swiss machines including multiaxis and Yaxis machining.
Use CAD/CAM software to generate toolpaths, create postprocessed programs and perform virtual simulation to validate programs before shop floor release.
Program and optimize machines commonly used in the shop (e.g., Miyano, Tsugami and Swiss platforms) and apply best practices for multiaxis machining.
Select appropriate tooling, toolholders and cutting parameters; create and maintain tooling libraries and offsets.
Prepare setup sheets, tooling lists, and documentation required for machine setup and part inspection.
Support machine setup and first article runs; troubleshoot machining issues and work with operators to implement fixes and process improvements.
Ensure all programming and documentation comply with company quality systems and standards, including ISO 9001 and AS9100 requirements where applicable.
Collaborate with design, engineering and quality teams to interpret GD&T, review drawings and suggest designformanufacturability improvements.
Maintain accurate program version control and program backups; contribute to continuous improvement initiatives to reduce cycle time and scrap.
Train and mentor machine operators and junior programmers on program use, best practices and shop safety.
QualificationsAssociate degree or technical diploma in Manufacturing Technology, Machining, Precision Machining or equivalent; or equivalent handson experience.
Minimum 3 years of CNC programming experience with demonstrated ability programming lathes, mills and millturn machines.
Handson experience with Miyano, Tsugami and Swiss style machines or similar platforms; proven experience with multiaxis and Yaxis machining.
Strong CAD/CAM skills (experience with common packages such as Mastercam, GibbsCAM, SolidCAM or equivalent) and proven ability to generate and postprocess programs.
Proficient in Gcode programming and program debugging for a variety of controllers.
Solid understanding of tooling selection, cutting parameters, feeds and speeds for highprecision machining.
Comfortable reading and interpreting engineering drawings and GD&T.Familiarity with quality systems and standards, specifically ISO 9001 and AS9100; experience working in regulated or aerospace manufacturing is a plus.
Excellent problem solving, communication and teamwork skills; ability to prioritize and manage multiple jobs in a fastpaced production environment.
