Job Description
JOB SUMMARY:
The Senior CNC Programmer is responsible for developing optimizing and implementing computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) programs to be used in the machining of Die Casting components. The role requires expertise in CNC programming a strong understanding of aerospace /Defense engineering specifications and a focus on precision efficiency and safety in manufacturing processes.
ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:
Create and modify CNC machine programs using CAD/CAM software (e.g. Mastercam Siemens NX CATIA SolidWorks).
Develop machining strategies for complex aerospace Diecast parts ensuring they meet engineering specifications and tolerance requirements.
Generate tool paths and setup instructions for CNC mills lathes and other advanced machine tools.
Review 3D CAD models and technical drawings of Diecast components to identify key machining features and requirements.
Collaborate with engineers and designers to resolve design and manufacturing challenges.
Ensure proper tool selection and optimize machining parameters (cutting speeds feeds etc.) for efficiency and part quality.
Set up CNC machines with appropriate fixtures tools and materials to produce parts per design specifications.
Collaborate with quality assurance teams to ensure that parts meet strict aerospace standards including material properties and dimensional accuracy.
Perform test runs and make necessary adjustments to CNC programs to achieve optimal results.
Verify that finished parts meet required tolerances through measurement and inspection.
Maintain and update CNC program documentation including revisions process sheets and work instructions.
Provide feedback and reports on production performance efficiency and any areas for improvement.
Analyze manufacturing processes and suggest improvements in tooling machining methods and workflow to reduce cycle times and costs.
Work closely with engineers machinists and production teams to ensure that CNC programs are executed correctly and meet all operational and customer requirements.
Communicate clearly regarding changes or adjustments to programming and tooling.
Perform basic part measurements during setup to validate linear dimensions
Calibrate and modify machine fixtures during process development as needed.
EDUCATION AND/OR EXPERIENCE REQUIRED:
Highschool Diploma 8 years experience in CNC programming manufacturing engineering preferably within the aerospace Die Casting industries.
Hands-on experience with CAD/CAM software (e.g. Mastercam Siemens NX CATIA).
Advanced to Expert level skills in interpreting raw CMM results to develop precise CNC programs including the application of probing techniques for in-process inspection during machining.
Extensive experience with CNC milling turning and multi-axis machines.
Familiarity with aerospace materials tolerances and inspection methods is highly preferred.
Proficient in the use of CNC programming languages (e.g. G-code M-code).
Strong knowledge of machining techniques tooling and fixtures.
Ability to read and interpret complex technical drawings and blueprints.
Familiarity with aerospace industry standards (e.g. AS9100 FAA regulations).
Excellent problem-solving and troubleshooting skills.
Strong communication and interpersonal skills for collaboration across teams.
OTHER SUBJECTIVE CRITERIA:
Certification in CNC programming or machining (e.g. from NIMS FANUC or similar organizations).
Capable of programming 5 axis simultaneous and active probing on Doosan Brother and Haas.
PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS:
Must be able to lift up to 25 lbs.
Must be able to work standing up for long hours.
