Job Description
- Join a high-performing fabrication team supporting aerospace structural production in Auburn WA. As a contractor Numerical Control Programmer (NCP) on our Machining/Tooling team youll drive the NC programming setup documentation and machining strategy for complex multi-axis parts used on Boeing commercial airplanes. You will collaborate closely with planning aerospace engineering tooling and shop-floor operators to turn engineered concepts into producible high-quality parts. This role is ideal for hands-on programmers who enjoy solving machining challenges optimizing workflows and seeing their programs executed on the shop floor.
- Create verify and revise Machine Control Data (MCD) tooling geometry and setup documentation for multi-axis CNC machines (primarily 5-axis).
- Interpret engineering drawings planning documentation and manufacturing requirements to develop robust NC programs for aluminum and hard-metal parts.
- Develop multiple setups and operations for complex part geometries ensuring fixturing tooling and machine selection support producibility and tolerances.
- Produce clear setup sheets and operator instructions that enable consistent and safe machine operation.
- Use simulation/verification tools (e.g. Vericut) to validate programs and eliminate collisions or gouges prior to shop-floor execution.
- Troubleshoot and iterate programs based on first-article inspections in-process feedback and shop-floor testing.
- Coordinate with planning manufacturing engineering tooling design and machine operators to optimize cycle times reduce scrap and address manufacturability concerns.
- For Level 4: Lead the design of custom fixtures and complex tooling arrangements and define machining strategies across multiple operations and machines.
- Maintain program documentation revisions and configuration control per company/contract requirements.
- Work under minimal direction.
- 7 years of NC programming experience for production machining or equivalent combination of education and experience.
- Demonstrated experience programming 5-axis CNC machines for aerospace parts (aluminum and hard metals).
- Proficiency reading and interpreting engineering drawings GD&T and manufacturing documentation.
- Proficient in CATIA V5 NC programming.
- Proficient in NC simulation/verification tools such as Vericut.
- Ability to create clear setup documentation and operator instructions.
- Able to work 2nd shift schedule as specified.
- Contractor eligibility to work under the terms of the engagement.
- Prior experience creating custom fixtures and tooling for multi-setup machining operations
- Experience defining machining strategy and selecting appropriate machines and processes for part families.
- Familiarity with aerospace manufacturing processes inspection practices and first-article requirements.
- Strong problem-solving skills with a track record of reducing cycle times or improving producibility.
- Effective communicator with experience collaborating across planning engineering and shop-floor teams.
- Experience with additional CAM systems or post-processors commonly used in aerospace environments.
- Education/experience typically acquired through advanced education (e.g. Associate) and typically 3 or more years related work experience or an equivalent combination of education and experience (e.g. Bachelor1 years related work experience 5 years related work experience etc.).
- Shifts: 1st
- Onsite/remote/hybrid: 100% onsite
