Job Description & How to Apply Below
If you're looking for a role where your ideas are seen, your work directly impacts production, and you're more than just another engineer in a large organization, this is the opportunity you've been waiting for.
We're a financially stable, well-established precision machining manufacturer with decades of success supplying complex components to demanding industries. Unlike larger corporations where engineers can become siloed, you'll work side-by-side with Operations, Production, Quality, and Leadership, giving you the visibility to influence how parts are made, processes are improved, and technology is implemented.
Why Consider This Opportunity?- Outstanding Stability – Join a long-standing manufacturer with an excellent reputation and consistent business.
- High Visibility – Work directly with leadership and manufacturing teams where your contributions are recognized and implemented.
- State-of-the-Art CNC Environment – Modern machining equipment with continued investment in new technology.
- Technical Ownership – Make decisions that directly improve efficiency, quality, and throughput.
- Career Growth – Expand your expertise in CAD/CAM programming, manufacturing engineering, tooling, and process optimization.
- Collaborative Culture – Small enough to make an impact, large enough to offer long-term career stability.
- Support day-to-day manufacturing operations by resolving production and engineering-related issues.
- Collaborate with Production, Quality, and Operations to improve manufacturability, product quality, and overall process performance.
- Design and update manufacturing documentation, process sheets, setup instructions, and engineering drawings.
- Develop, optimize, and maintain CNC programs using Mastercam for mills, lathes, and Swiss machining centers.
- Utilize Solid Works to design fixtures, work holding, tooling concepts, and manufacturing improvements.
- Evaluate and implement new cutting tools, tooling strategies, and fixturing to reduce cycle times and improve quality.
- Support machining operations from initial setup through first-piece approval and process validation.
- Analyze machining processes and identify opportunities to improve throughput, reduce scrap, and increase machine utilization.
- Troubleshoot CNC machining issues involving tooling, offsets, feeds, speeds, work holding, and program optimization.
- Partner closely with machinists and setup personnel to continuously refine manufacturing processes.
- Develop standardized setup documentation and best practices to improve repeatability across the shop.
- Drive continuous improvement initiatives focused on cycle time reduction, tooling performance, machine efficiency, and overall manufacturing productivity.
- Stay current on emerging CAD/CAM technologies, cutting tool advancements, and machining best practices.
- 3+ years of Manufacturing Engineering experience within a CNC machining environment.
- Experience programming CNC mills, lathes, and/or Swiss machines using Mastercam
. - Strong proficiency with Solid Works or similar CAD software.
- Knowledge of CNC tooling, work holding, fixtures, GD&T, and machining processes.
- Hands-on understanding of precision machining, process optimization, and continuous improvement.
- Ability to collaborate effectively with machinists, programmers, production, and quality teams.
- Passion for improving manufacturing processes and solving technical challenges on the shop floor.
Compensation: $95,000 - $100,000 plus a comprehensive benefits package.
