5-Axis CNC Manufacturing Process Engineer

Shape how complex parts come to life Step into a high-mix, low-volume environment where precision, agility, and creativity intersect. As our 5-Axis CNC Manufacturing Process Engineer, you’ll own process development from CAD/CAM strategy through shop-floor execution—combining world-class Mastercam programming with practical automation to boost throughput and repeatability.

• Morning:
  Review new part designs, select tooling/fixturing, and craft optimized 5-axis toolpaths in Mastercam. Validate with simulation and G-code reviews.
• Midday:
  Partner with design, production, and automation teams to de-risk manufacturability, troubleshoot setups, and refine programs for cycle time and surface quality.
• Afternoon:
  Stand up or tune automation (pallets/robots/probing) to elevate flexibility and throughput. Document workflows and NC strategies for repeat builds.
• Always:
  Lead lean/Six Sigma improvements, uphold safety, quality, and environmental standards, and mentor peers on best practices.

• Optimize processes for complex geometries and materials in a high-mix, low-volume setting.
• Program and debug 5-axis CNC machines using Mastercam; post, prove-out, and refine G-code.
• Design and implement automation to increase flexibility and throughput.
• Collaborate cross-functionally to resolve manufacturing challenges quickly and sustainably.
• Drive continuous improvement using lean and Six Sigma methodologies.
• Create clear documentation for machining processes, NC programs, and automation workflows.
• Ensure full compliance with safety, quality, and environmental requirements.

• Extensive experience in high-mix, low-volume machining environments.
