Full Job Description

**CNC Programmer / Manufacturing Engineer** We're hiring a CNC Programmer for a modern, engineering-driven manufacturing company focused on aerospace, defense, and other highly complex precision-machined components. We believe great manufacturing starts with great engineering, world-class programming, and automation that allows our machinists to focus on making exceptional parts. This is not a traditional programming role. We're looking for someone who can take ownership of the entire manufacturing process—from customer model and drawing review through process development, first article approval, and production release. If you're currently programming complex aerospace, defense, medical device, or high-precision components and want to work with cutting-edge equipment, advanced automation, and a growing engineering-focused organization, we'd like to speak with you. **You'll have the opportunity to work with:** * Siemens NX CAM * Hermle 5-Axis Machining Centers * Heller Horizontal Machining Centers * Zayer Large-Format Machining Platforms * DN Solutions Machining Centers * Siemens Sinumerik & Heidenhain Controls * Wenzel CMM Systems * Keyence Inspection Technology * Lang & FCS Modular Workholding * Haimer Tool Presetting Systems **What You'll Do:** * Develop CNC programs using Siemens NX CAM for complex 3-axis, 4-axis, 5-axis, simultaneous 5-axis, and mill-turn applications * Own manufacturing process development from model review through production release * Lead New Product Introduction (NPI) activities including manufacturing planning, tooling strategy, workholding concepts, setup development, and first article execution * Translate engineering drawings, GD&T, specifications, and customer requirements into repeatable manufacturing processes * Create setup sheets, tooling documentation, work instructions, and process documentation * Support fixture and workholding development using modular and custom fixturing solutions * Partner closely with machinists during prove
