Open CNC Programmer

As a CNC Programmer, your primary focus will be on the development, adjustment, and validation of programs and setup documentation for CNC milling machinery. You will play a vital role in converting technical engineering concepts into high-precision parts by streamlining programming workflows, designing effective fixtures, and refining production processes.

Core Responsibilities:

• Maintain thorough and precise records of all activities, including work orders, maintenance logs, and inspection documentation.
• Analyze engineering blueprints and GD&T requirements in accordance with ASME Y14.5 standards.
• Utilize CAD/CAM applications to produce solid models, technical drawings, and precise toolpaths.
• Enhance manufacturing efficiency by developing and refining sophisticated machining and inspection workflows.
• Verify that all prior operation sign-offs are complete and confirm part quantities before initiating any production tasks.
• Conduct essential equipment safety inspections prior to starting any manufacturing work.
• Confirm that all measuring tools are properly calibrated and in optimal working order before use.
• Adhere to standardized procedures to ensure the identification and traceability of all products and records.
• Review all relevant specifications, blueprints, and process instructions to help maintain consistent quality standards across all production runs.
• Comply with all established departmental standard operating procedures.
• Deliver agile support to ensure the successful production of components with tight tolerances.
• Identify and correct quality discrepancies related to the machining process.
• Develop, update, and validate programming for all shop floor machinery.
• Design and program specialized work-holding fixtures to support various production volumes.
• Improve overall throughput by optimizing cutting tools, programs, and fixture setups to reduce cycle times.
• Manage and update process documentation for existing product lines.
• Evaluate and integrate cutting-edge cutting tools, work-holding solutions, and programming software.
• Validate that all new CNC programs are designed to support and improve the overall product flow within the facility.

Required Qualifications:

• An Associate degree in Manufacturing Technology or an equivalent combination of professional experience.
• At least 4 years of hands-on experience utilizing CAD/CAM software, with a preference for Esprit, MasterCAM, and Solidworks.
• A minimum of 8 years of experience operating CNC equipment within a production setting, with medical device manufacturing experience considered a significant advantage.
• Demonstrated proficiency in diverse inspection techniques, such as mechanical and CMM measurement.
• Solid technical competency in Microsoft Office, CAD, and CAM software.
