• 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.

• Proficient in NC simulation/verification tools such as Vericut.

Preferred Qualifications:

• 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:

AA degree in related discipline and typically 3 or more years of related experience or an equivalent combination of education and experience.
