If you are an expert CAM professional who thrives on solving complex machining puzzles and wants a role where your programming architecture directly impacts global heavy machinery builds, this position is built for your skillset. Our client is a globally recognized manufacturing powerhouse that designs and constructs high-performance heavy industrial equipment and advanced auxiliary tools. They operate a fiercely supportive, people-first culture where technical excellence is rewarded, micromanagement is non-existent, and employee longevity is the standard.
This position offers an incredibly clean, modern manufacturing infrastructure and robust macroeconomic stability. Instead of programming repetitive high-volume parts, you will tackle engaging, custom, low-volume components engineered from high-strength alloys. With great corporate perks, profit sharing, and a firm commitment to promoting from within, this company treats you like a foundational technical partner, offering a stable and rewarding long-term professional home.
What You Will Be Doing
- Developing, testing, and optimizing complex multi-axis CNC programs from scratch using Mastercam, establishing the ideal manufacturing methods and tooling strategies for advanced industrial builds
- Analyzing engineering job orders, structural blueprints, and 3D CAD data models to determine the optimal sequence of operations and custom tool selections
- Maintaining and auditing the central corporate CNC program and routing database, ensuring all product files are accurately stored by machine process and type
- Providing real-time technical support to production floor teams, identifying and resolving machining roadblocks related to setups, tooling dynamics, and code logic
- Participating in the engineering and design of custom jigs, workholding, and specialized fixtures to maximize manufacturing throughput and ensure 100% part compliance
- Leading localized Lean manufacturing initiatives and conducting time studies to evaluate actual output against production and setup engineering standards
- Collaborating directly with design engineering teams to review prototypes and ensure manufacturing processes are fully optimized for maximum efficiency and quality
What We Are Looking For
- Mastercam Precision: Verifiable, advanced programming experience in a heavy CNC manufacturing environment, with a proven ability to independently write computer code from scratch within Mastercam
- Technical Literacy: Expert-level mastery of industrial blueprint reading, geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T), and the practical application of precision measurement metrics
- Process Development: A strong background in tooling application and operational sequencing; direct exposure to 5-axis machining environments or Visual Basic coding is a significant advantage
- Analytical Logic: Sharp critical-thinking skills to troubleshoot complex machine tool paths on the fly and mentor junior machining personnel on code interpretation
- Professional Reliability: A rock-solid, dependable work history that demonstrates organizational commitment and multi-year tenures at previous employers
