CNC / CAM Programmer

As a CNC programmer you will be responsible for interpreting blueprints and inputting solid models into CAM software to create functional G-Code. Must have the ability to program and handle multi-axis lathes (2 Turret & 3 Turret) along with some 3,4,5 Axis machining. Candidate must have a strong understanding of machining principles, able to work with machinists to optimize cutting paths as needed, manual editing of code on the fly, and a commitment to quality. Must be willing to push the limits and use the latest and greatest cutting tools, work-holding, and manufacturing technology to improve shop flow. The ability to work independently and as part of a team is crucial. Opportunities for growth are available to those willing to pursue it!

Duties / Responsibilities :

• Develop and create CNC programs for machines to efficiently produce parts according to specifications using CAM software.
• Use of ESPRIT 2XXX and ESPRIT EDGE software a huge plus!
• Cooperate with building our network library of cutting tools, work-holding, and shared files.
• Help machinists perform first part inspections (FAI), when proving out a program.
• Create and enhance machines Digital Twin for CAM machine simulations.
• Enhance legacy CNC programs for improved efficiency, accuracy, and reduced cycle times, while choosing and loading the correct cutting tools.
• Maintains the work area and equipment in a clean orderly condition and follows prescribed safety regulations.
• Aid in training staff in machine operation procedures and best practices to ensure a safe and efficient work environment.
• Adhere to safety guidelines and maintain a clean work area.
• Responsible for creating / modeling jigs, fixtures or other specialized non-production devices as assigned.
• Help create setup sheets using software.
• Demonstrate ability to independently interpret instructions and execute complete machine setups and various job responsibilities with minimal supervision.
• Create or modify G-Code programs to reduce or improve run times.
• Troubleshoot and resolve production / machine issues.
