We are looking for a skilled CNC Programmer specifically proficient in Autodesk FeatureCAM to support our machining operations. The primary focus of this role is to develop high-quality programs for our fleet of Fanuc-controlled mills and lathes. You will be the bridge between engineering designs and the shop floor, ensuring our manufacturing department runs with maximum efficiency and minimal downtime.

Key Responsibilities

•  Feature-Based Programming: Utilize FeatureCAM to create efficient 2D and 3D toolpaths, leveraging feature recognition to streamline the programming workflow.
• Tooling & Workholding: Select appropriate tooling, specialty cutters, and design custom workholding or jigs within FeatureCAM.
• Verification: Run full machine simulations within FeatureCAM to prevent crashes and ensure "right-first-time" production.
• Collaboration: Work directly with operators to fine-tune programs on the floor, adjusting offsets and feed rates for optimized performance.
• Other duties as assigned.

Requirements:

• Experience: 3+ years of professional experience specifically using FeatureCAM for CNC programming.
• Controller Expertise: Comprehensive understanding of Fanuc-based systems and control architecture.
• Blueprints: Mastery of blueprint reading and GD&T to ensure parts meet tight tolerances (e.g., +/- .0005").
• Machining Knowledge: Strong grasp of speeds and feeds for a variety of materials (Aluminum, Stainless, Plastics, etc.).
• Certification: FeatureCAM certification or a degree in Precision Machining is a plus.
