Multi‑Axis CAM Process Engineer, DMG Mori Systems

Can you see the toolpath before the stock is even clamped?

If translating intricate aerospace geometry into efficient, simultaneous 5‑axis motion is your craft, we’d like to talk. At Northeast Tool & Manufacturing in Matthews, NC, we’re adding a CNC Programmer (I/II/III, based on experience) to own programming strategy, verification, and process control for high‑value, exotic‑alloy components.

Answer “yes” to these and you’ll feel at home:

• Do you program in Mastercam for horizontal/vertical mills and lathes across Inconel, Monel, Hastelloy, Aluminum, and Stainless Steel?
• Do you rely on Vericut for collision‑safe verification and CIMCO probing for in‑process control?
• Can you read a complex print, map out the most efficient operations, and document the process end‑to‑end?
• Have you collaborated with Manufacturing Engineering to design workholding, custom tooling, and gauging that pass stringent aerospace inspections?
• When machines stall, do you step in to troubleshoot and get conforming parts flowing again?
  
  

Your Impact

• Program, simulate, and optimize multi‑axis paths in Mastercam; keep improving existing programs for aircraft and space engine hardware.
• Establish robust processes with setup sheets, tooling lists, critical dimension/control sheets, and manufacturing plans.
• Lead or support corrective action and root cause analysis (fishbone, 5‑Why), and champion continuous improvement and cost reduction with vendors.
• Manage post‑run tooling: inspect, sharpen, and return to the vending solution.
• Document rigorously: setup details, programming changes, and engineering checklists.
• Mentor Programming Technicians and Programmer I/II peers; distribute work and review output as assigned; serve as liaison with Quality, Management, and Operations.
  
  

What You’ll Bring

• Bachelor’s degree (Engineering preferred) or equivalent combination of education and experience.
• 3–8 years of multi‑axis programming; simultaneous 5‑axis strongly preferred.
• GD&T fluency; ASME Y14.5‑2018 foundational certification (or ability to obtain within 3 months).
• Experience setting up and operating 5‑axis CNC equipment.
• Mastercam expertise; certification a plus. SolidWorks proficiency.
  
  

Preferred Qualifications

• AS9100 background.
• Comfort with Siemens and/or Fanuc controls; DMG Mori experience.
• Advanced ASME Y14.5‑2018 GD&T certification.
• Mastercam Certifications: Mill 2D, Mill 3D, Lathe, 4‑Axis; Multi‑Axis/Advanced Lathe strongly preferred.
• CSWA or CSWP.
• Vericut experience.
• Six Sigma (CSSYB or higher).
  
  

Compensation & Benefits

Pay range: $80,000–$140,000 depending on level and experience.

We’re an award‑winning, employee‑centric team with structured roles and individual development. Perks include relocation assistance; 9 paid holidays (yes, your birthday); a 4% 401(k) match through Fidelity; education assistance; free coffee; and a top‑15% benefits program with an on‑staff Nurse and Pharmacist.
