About The Position

Requirements

• CNC Programming (Required) Mastercam (preferred) or comparable CAM software (NX, Fusion, PowerMill, etc.)
• Creation and optimization of 3D toolpaths for complex geometry
• Experience programming 4-axis machining using B-axis rotation
• Ability to post, prove out, and safely run new programs
• Solid understanding of work offsets, tool control, and collision avoidance
• 4-Axis / Complex 3D Machining (Required) Hands-on experience machining complex 3D parts on horizontal machining centers
• Effective use of 4-axis positioning (B-axis) to access multiple faces and reduce setups
• Ability to hold tight tolerances and produce high-quality surface finishes
• Advanced blueprint reading and GD&T
• Renishaw Probing + Routine Programming (Required) Hands-on use of Renishaw probing systems for part pickup and alignment, work offset setting and updating, bore/boss location verification, and in-process inspection and verification checks
• Ability to create and edit probing routines
• Experience writing or modifying probe subroutines/macros to improve repeatability and reduce setup time
• Workholding & Process Ownership (Required) Experience designing and building custom fixtures
• Comfortable owning jobs independently from programming through completion
• Horizontal machining experience strongly preferred
• Experience using pallet-changing machines a plus
• Resume must clearly include: CAM software used (Mastercam or equivalent), Description of 4-axis machining experience, Examples of complex 3D parts programmed and machined, Renishaw probing experience and what it was used for, Whether probe routines/subroutines/macros have been written or edited, Machine types operated (horizontal machining centers preferred)
