CNC Programmer

Description

 Are you a CNC Programming powerhouse ready to shape the future of industrial power?
We're not making widgets here. We're crafting precision components for industrial gas turbines that power the world — and we need a sharp, experienced CNC Programmer to lead the charge from code to chip.

This isn’t a button-pushing job. This is full-cycle programming, setup, and first-piece support for high-precision parts using mills, lathes, and multi-axis CNC machinery. You'll partner with engineering, ops, and quality teams to bring complex prototypes and production parts to life — right the first time.

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Creating, editing, and optimizing CNC programs using Mastercam and SolidWorks
• Setting up machines and ensuring flawless First Piece Inspections
• Troubleshooting equipment like a champ and mentoring machinists on best practices
• Analyzing drawings, selecting tooling, dialing in speeds/feeds, and solving production puzzles
• Tracking program updates, improving processes, and driving continuous improvement
• Collaborating with customers and cross-functional teams to deliver elite results
   

What You Bring to the Table:

• 6–9 years of hands-on CNC programming experience with Mastercam & SolidWork
• Strong background in setup and operation of CNC/manual machinery (2–5 years
• A sharp eye for tight tolerances, quality standards, and machining efficience
• Associate degree or CNC programming certifications? Even better
• Bonus points for SolidWorks Pro, Mastercam, or NIMS certifications
   

Why You’ll Thrive Here:

• Be part of a specialized, high-impact team in a mission-critical industry
• Work with the latest in CNC and CAD/CAM tech
• Play a visible role in product development and prototyping
• Drive continuous improvement — and actually be heard
• Competitive pay, benefits, and opportunities for professional growth
