Senior CNC Programmer (NX)

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-outs, first articles, troubleshooting, and production launches

Support continuous improvement initiatives focused on cycle time reduction, setup reduction, tool life optimization, and process stability

Work closely with Quality, Engineering, Operations, Customers, and Suppliers to ensure successful execution of complex programs

Mentor machinists and junior programmers on machining strategy and process discipline
