## Description

**Overview**

We’re hiring an NC Programmer to engineer complete manufacturing processes for the aerospace and defense programs we support. This site is unique—we focus heavily on high-precision CNC gantry work, utilizing 3, 4, 5, and 6-axis machines with multi-heads to produce large-scale, complex pieces. You won't just be writing code; you’ll be designing the manufacturing process from the ground up, including fixture design, CAM programming, and process optimization.

Because these parts go into mission-critical systems tied to national security, the standards are incredibly high. We need a high-end programmer who is highly proficient with SolidWorks, Mastercam, CATIA, and Vericut to support our prime contracts. If you want a role where your programming directly translates to aerospace innovation—and where you can build a long-term career tackling massive, tight-tolerance parts—let's talk.

**Compensation**

-   **Base Pay:** $40 – $48 / hour
-   **Overtime:** 5-15 hours / week is typical

**Shift**

-   **1st:** 5:00am - 1:00pm

**Benefits**

-   Medical, dental, vision
-   401(k) with match
-   PTO

**Responsibilities:**

-   Engineer complete manufacturing processes for mechanical parts, light assemblies, and large-scale gantry CNCs.
-   Develop, write, and optimize programs for 3, 4, 5, and 6-axis CNC machines.
-   Utilize Vericut software to simulate, verify, and optimize toolpaths (a strict requirement for our Boeing and prime aerospace contracts).
-   Create designs and CAD drawings for fixtures, workstations, and related manufacturing devices.
-   Review engineering documents (drawings, CAD models, specs) for manufacturability and assess the impact of engineering changes on fixtures and processes.
-   Support manufacturing process quoting and provide technical assistance/buy-off for internal teams and design companies.
-   Apply industrial engineering problem-solving techniques to improve productivity, efficiency, and continuous process optimization.
-   Research, document, and troubleshoot dimensional, tooling, and process issues on the floor to maintain quality and throughput.

## Requirements

Qualifications:

**Technical**

-   5 to 6 years of relevant NC/CNC programming experience in a precision aerospace environment.
-   Mandatory experience using Vericut software for program simulation and transition.
-   High proficiency in CAM software (Mastercam and CATIA required).
-   High proficiency in CAD software (SolidWorks required).
-   Strong background programming for multi-axis CNC machines (experience with large Cincinnati gantry machines is a massive differentiator).
-   Previous experience working with Boeing or other major aerospace primes is highly preferred.
-   Confidence interpreting complex engineering drawings, CAD models, and customer specifications.
-   Mastery of basic math, strong computer skills, and an excellent attention to detail.
-   High school diploma or equivalent, plus specialized training in programming/machining.
-   Ability to handle the physical requirements of the role, including extended screen time and potentially long hours.
