Manufacturing Engineer IV (2879)

Morson•Greenville, NC

6d•Onsite

About The Position

This position is for 2nd shift CNC programming and shop support / development. It involves program, process development, and shop support for large VTLs, VBMs, Gantry 5-axis machines, and vertical multi-purpose turn/grind machines. The role requires generating and maintaining CNC programs using NX-CAM or other software, including multi-axis milling, turning, grinding, and/or EDM. Verification of new CNC programs using Vericut, incorporation of on-machine probing for validation, and adherence to standards are key responsibilities. The position also involves providing CNC-related support to Manufacturing Engineers, operator training, daily shop floor support, and troubleshooting. Additionally, the role supports tooling and fixturing, generates workstation instructions, leads process improvement projects, and requires effective communication and teamwork in a fast-paced, matrixed organization.

Requirements

4 years of experience with graphical based CAM System CNC Programming.
Siemens NX CAM experience preferred and will be given priority.

Nice To Haves

Experience creating 5-axis CNC programs using a CAM (preferably NX) system.
Minimum of 1 year of experience with high-level machine tool controls including sub-routine(macro), Renishaw probing routine, and variable based programming, as well as CLM (closed loop machining).
Significant "hands-on" background as a machinist, with the ability to personally setup and prove out complex first-piece programs.
A track record of managing tight tolerances on large-format equipment (VTLs/VBMs/etc up to 2.5m) where part deflection, work hardening, and thermal stability are critical factors.
Extensive experience machining nickel-based superalloys (Inconel, Rene, Hastelloy, etc.) common in Heavy Duty Gas Turbine (HDGT) or Aerospace industry.
Strong problem solving and organization skills, with above average shop math skills in geometry and trigonometry.
Experience using Vericut (preferred) or other CNC verification/machine simulation software.
Strong familiarity with multiple machine controls including Fanuc, Haas, Okuma, & Siemens.
Demonstrated proficiency interpreting drawing requirements.
Ability to multi-task and productively manage multiple projects concurrently.
