Job Description

Position: Division NC Programmer

Job Description

The 5-Axis Milling NC Programmer works closely with the Division leaders of NC Programming and NC Team Leads to develop high-quality CNC programs for complex milled components produced on 3-axis, 4-axis, and 5-axis machining centers. The role includes execution of advanced machining strategies, designing tooling and workholding solutions, optimizing manufacturing processes, and supporting shop-floor prove-outs. The programmer ensures all CNC programs meet manufacturing, quality, safety, and delivery requirements while aligning with company standards and production objectives.

Key duties

  • Develop CNC programs for 3-axis, 4-axis, and 5-axis machining centers using appropriate CAM software and based on engineering drawings, 3D models, and technical specifications.
  • Create and modify 3D solid models from 2D drawings, PDFs, customer-supplied geometry, and scan data when required.
  • Develop advanced toolpaths for roughing, semi-finishing, finishing, high-speed machining, and multi-axis contouring operations.
  • Design tooling, fixtures, workholding, and part retention concepts to support complex machining requirements and maximize process stability.
  • Optimize machining processes for cycle time, tool life, machine utilization, and manufacturability while maintaining quality requirements.
  • Apply advanced machining strategies including tool center point control (TCPC), dynamic milling, adaptive roughing, and simultaneous 5-axis machining.
  • Ensure CNC programs meet internal programming standards, machining best practices, and production requirements.
  • Interpret and apply GD&T, model-based definition (MBD), and tolerance schemes to ensure dimensional compliance.
  • Support program prove-outs on the shop floor, collaborating with machinists, manufacturing engineers, and quality personnel to resolve technical issues.
  • Analyze and resolve programming, tooling, fixture, and machine-related challenges during development and production.
  • Understand and apply FAI requirements, inspection methods, and aerospace documentation standards (if applicable).
  • Work cross-functionally to support new product introduction, continuous improvement initiatives, cost reduction efforts, and special projects.
  • Perform additional duties as assigned to support production and engineering objectives.

Requirements

  • 7-10+ years of CNC programming experience in a manufacturing environment, with significant experience programming 5-axis machining centers.
  • Strong knowledge of CAM software (CATIA, NX, Mastercam, HyperMill, PowerMill, or equivalent) and post-processing workflows.
  • Extensive experience programming simultaneous 5-axis and indexed multi-axis machining operations.
  • Strong understanding of machine kinematics, rotary axis configurations, tool center point control (TCPC), and collision avoidance techniques.
  • Proficient understanding of G-Code and M-Code programming principles.
  • Experience with tooling selection, cutter geometry, feeds and speeds optimization, high-performance machining, and difficult-to-machine materials.
  • Ability to design and document fixtures, tombstones, pallets, and workholding solutions for complex components.
  • Familiarity with Vericut or equivalent simulation software for toolpath verification, collision detection, and process validation.
  • Strong understanding of GD&T, blueprint interpretation, model-based definition (MBD), and metrology techniques.
  • Experience machining aerospace, medical, energy, or other high-precision components preferred.
  • Proficient with Microsoft Office tools and capable of producing clear technical documentation.
  • Ability to collaborate effectively with machinists, quality engineers, manufacturing engineers, and production teams.
  • Strong problem-solving abilities, attention to detail, and a continuous improvement mindset.
  • Formal training in relevant CAD/CAM software and advanced machining technologies preferred.
