cnc programmer.

lls. This role supports both new and repeat production in a "job shop manufacturing" by creating efficient, repeatable and cost-effective machining processes. The CNC programmer works closely with machinists, supervisors, planning, and quality to ensure programs run safely and efficiently, meet quality requirements, and minimize cycle and handling time. The role also supports first-article setups and troubleshooting on the shop floor.

Responsibilities:
CAM Programming: Develop, write and maintain multi-axis CNC programs (3, 4, or 5 axis) for horizontal and vertical CNC mills and live-tooling lathes using CAM Software (Mastercam/CloundNC), including detailed in-program notes.
G-Code Optimization: Manually edit and optimize G- and M-code to improve efficiency, reduce cycle time, and ensure reliable machine operation.
Tool Selection & Cutting Strategy: Interpret blueprints and GD&T to select appropriate cutting tools, feeds, speeds, and machining strategies based on machine capability and material.
Simulation and Proving: Run computer simulations, dry-runs, and prove-outs on machines to verify toolpaths and prevent collisions prior to production.
Collaboration & Communication: Coordinate with project planning personnel on machining quotes, lead times and tooling requirements. Work closely with shop supervisors, machinists and quality personnel to resolve issues and
improve workflow.
Fixture design/setup: Design, build, or assist with custom fixtures and work-holding solutions as required.
Process Documentation: Create and maintain detailed setup sheets, tool lists and job documentation that enable consistent, repeatable production.
Technology & Development: Utilize advanced and AI-assisted CNC programming tools (e.g., CloudNC) to accelerate programming and improve process efficiency.
Production Support: Assist with tool crib management and support production machining activities as directed by the supervisor.
