Salary commensurate with experience.
What your day looks like
You start by opening a new aerospace component model, sketching fixture concepts, and building your toolpaths in Solid Works with CAMWorks. Before lunch, you walk the floor to partner with CNC operators on a first-article run, confirm your setup sheets are crystal clear, and fine-tune G-code and tool selections. In the afternoon, you capture lessons learned, update operation documentation, and collaborate with the tooling team to finalize fixture details.
Throughout, you’re balancing precision, schedule, and cost—exactly what keeps jet engines in the air and our customers on time.
We’re an approved supplier of jet engine service tools and precision aircraft parts.
Since 1952, our team has delivered quality on schedule from our 27,500 sq. ft. modern facility—equipped for efficient, cost-effective production. With seasoned machinists and engineers, we build some of the industry’s finest jet engine service tools and critical flight safety parts and assemblies.
The roleThis is a full-time position working under the direct supervision of the Director of Quality. We’re seeking a skilled and motivated CNC Programmer with hands‑on experience in CNC milling and a strong command of aerospace machining processes.
What you’ll do- Program CNC mills across 3-axis, 4-axis, and 3+2 configurations.
- Own machining process development for simpler aerospace parts; co-develop strategies for complex geometries with the team.
- Create solid models, NC code, setup sheets, and complete operation documentation for each operation.
- Design machining fixtures and produce clear operation sheets for the tooling department.
- Partner closely with CNC operators and setup personnel during product development and initial production runs.
- Select cutting tools—leveraging our established tool library while exploring innovative options where beneficial.
- Use Solid Works integrated with CAMWorks for programming;
Mastercam or other CAM experience also welcome.
- Prior CNC Operator experience (highly desirable).
