Job Description

CNC Programmer (2400) 3.9 3.9 out of 5 stars 2400 Maremont Parkway, Loudon, TN 37774 CNC
PROGRAMMING ENGINEERING SCORECARD FUNCTION
CNC Programming Engineers are the bridge between design and fully CNC machined components. They live and breathe CNC machining and CAM (computer aided manufacturing). The engineer's "customers" are the associates and technicians on the floor who are hands-on with the machining processes and output. It is crucial that the programming engineer serve these customers well by kindly receiving feedback, executing change requests, and teaching along the way. They must have an intimate knowledge of machining processes and strong interpersonal skills. Programming engineers will constantly engage in new program development, program corrections, and run-time reduction projects.
OUTCOMES
Intentionally mentor or at least one manufacturing associate or machining technician via weekly relational and educational sessions Attend one industry Expo or Conference every year. Find one 2 second improvement (fix what bugs you) every day and share with the rest of the engineering team via photo or video. Identify, purchase and implement one significant piece of technology, software, hardware, or equipment per year Engage in continuing education for CAM (or other) software Innovate manufacturability and advocate for internal customers during the design and prototype phases of new projects. Diagnose quality issues and design processes to prevent repeat occurrences Ensure work instructions are in place for new projects Respond to all communication from internal customers within 8 work hours
COMPETENCIES
Cultural Fulfillment at work most often occurs when personal values align with those of the organization. Protomet associates it's collective character with the following traits: Second Mile The first mile is mandatory. The second mile is voluntary; we do it for our own growth. Outsized benefits are realized in the second mile. Don't Touch the Marshmallow The strength to reject short term gratification in favor of a larger reward later. We err towards celebrating later, not sooner. Abundance Mindset Life is not a zero-sum game. We strive to reject scarcity mindsets and instead "grow the pie". Example - does a new "A" player on your team pose a threat (scarcity) or an opportunity to grow as a team? Skills Beat Credentials What you can do is all that matters. Credentials alone won't get you anywhere at Protomet. That's Hard…Good Growth happens the most in the face of challenges. We recognize it is difficult to grin as you are being tested, but it's possible, and we're getting better at it.
