Senior CNC Programmer

Axiom Custom Products
Portland, OR Full Time
POSTED ON 1/1/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 3/31/2026
Please note: this is not a remote job. We CNC soft materials, like foams, woods, and plastics.

Axiom Custom Products is where ambitious ideas become real. We design and manufacture custom work for the creative, events, retail, and construction industries, using cutting-edge digital fabrication and decades of craft to deliver results no one else can match. With a huge range of in-house capabilities and a team that loves a challenge, we take projects from concept all the way to installation.

We’re on the lookout for a Senior CNC Programmer who’s excited to dive into complex builds and bring precision, creativity, and technical mastery to every project. In this role, you’ll turn engineered models and CAD files into accurate, efficient Mastercam/Powermill programs for our 3-, 5-, and 7-axis CNC routers. You’ll catch issues before they hit the floor, troubleshoot unique challenges, and help make sure every part that leaves the department is something you’re proud to stand behind.

This is a hands-on, high-impact position where your experience really matters. You’ll collaborate daily with programmers, engineers, project managers, and shop teams to keep work flowing smoothly. You’ll help guide less-experienced programmers, support the CNC Manager, and step up to keep the department running at its best — even taking the lead when needed. From refining production methods to maintaining clean file structures to solving tricky machining problems, you’ll play a key role in shaping how our CNC department operates and evolves.

You’ll be working with a wide range of materials, translating complex designs into beautifully executed parts, and making smart decisions around tooling, nesting, and machine capabilities. You’ll run machines, verify programs, maintain standards, and take an active role in quality assurance to ensure everything meets Axiom’s exacting expectations. As a senior team member, you’ll also help train others, test out new software or equipment, monitor workflow — all while helping keep communication clear and morale high.

To thrive here, you should bring strong CAD and CNC programming skills, experience with CNC routers, and a deep understanding of best practices in machining and fabrication. A positive attitude, sharp organizational habits, reliable problem-solving skills, and a willingness to learn and adapt will take you even further. Experience with Powermill, robotics programming, SolidWorks, or equipment like the Amada press brake or Kern laser is a bonus, but not required.

If you’re ready to work independently, collaborate with a talented team, and take on some of the most interesting custom manufacturing challenges out there, we’d love to meet you. Join us at Axiom, where no two days — or two projects — are ever the same, and where great ideas become even better realities.

The Payoff
When it comes to our team, they enjoy excellent pay, great benefits, including medical, dental, vision for the employee (with additional cost options for dependents). We offer 401k and ROTH investment options. After year one you accrue 20 days of PTO, yep, your read that right! Combined with paid holidays, our benefits are some of the best in our industry.
