CNC Programmer

Not a remote role—and we CNC soft materials like foam, wood, and plastics, not metal.

At Axiom Custom Products, we design and build things that don’t come out of a catalog. We work with creative teams, event producers, retailers, and builders to bring ideas to life—from early concepts all the way through fabrication and installation. With a team of about 80 people and a whole lot of digital manufacturing firepower, we’ve spent decades learning (sometimes the hard way) how to make really good things.

Our shop moves fast, priorities shift, and every project is different, so the people who thrive here are adaptable, collaborative, and proactive problem‑solvers.

We’re looking for a CNC Programmer to join our production team and play a key role in how our projects come together. You’ll be programming and working directly with 3-, 5-, and 7‑axis CNC routers, with opportunities to cross‑train on a press brake, a laser, or both if that’s your thing. You’ll take engineered drawings and CAD models and turn them into clean, efficient programs using Mastercam, Cabinet Vision, and occasionally Power Mill—then see those programs through to finished parts on the shop floor.

This role isn’t just about sitting at a computer. You’ll be involved in the full process: thinking through machine capabilities, material behavior, tooling, cut order, and speed, then making sure the parts coming off the machine meet our quality standards. You’ll create clear run sheets, keep files organized, and work closely with other departments to keep projects moving. We care a lot about consistency, safety, and communication, so you’ll be expected to follow established CNC standards, maintain equipment, and help keep our CNC areas clean, organized, and running smoothly.

  • Program 3‑, 5‑, and 7‑axis CNC routers and optional press brake or laser tools.
  • Translate engineered drawings and CAD models into efficient Mastercam, Cabinet Vision, or Power Mill programs.
  • Prepare clear run sheets, maintain organized files, and coordinate with other departments to keep projects moving.
  • Follow CNC standards, maintain equipment, and keep CNC areas clean, organized, and running smoothly.

We’re looking for someone who knows their way around CAD and CNC programming and understands best practices like nesting, tooling choices, and efficient workflows. Experience with Mastercam is ideal, and we’ll train you in Cabinet Vision and eventually Power Mill. A solid understanding of materials like plywood, hardwoods, MDF, plastics, and similar substrates is important, as is general fabrication knowledge. If you’re organized, detail‑oriented, comfortable working independently, and good at troubleshooting when things don’t go as planned, you’ll fit right in.

You should also be open to forklift training and certification and comfortable working in both an air‑conditioned office and an active shop environment.

  • Solid CAD and CNC programming knowledge with Mastercam experience.
  • Understanding of nesting, tooling choices, and efficient workflows.
  • Experience with materials such as plywood, hardwoods, MDF, plastics, and similar substrates.
  • Organized, detail‑oriented, independent work style, and strong troubleshooting skills.
  • Open to forklift training and certification; comfortable in both office and shop environments.

Bonus points if you’ve worked with Power Mill or Power Mill Robot, have experience with 5‑axis or 7‑axis robotic systems like Royce or Kuka, or have run an Amada press brake or Kern laser—but none of that is required to be successful here.

In return, we offer excellent pay and a strong benefits package, including medical, dental, and vision coverage for employees, with options to add dependents. We offer both 401k and ROTH investment options, and after your first year you’ll earn 20 days of PTO—yes, twenty—plus paid holidays.

We have a professional passion for making interesting things and partnering with artists, designers, and builders to create real‑world moments that matter.

Important note:

the office is dog friendly.

If that sounds like something you want to be part of, send us a resume and a short intro about why you think you’d be a great fit—no formal cover letter needed. We’d love to hear from you.

The wage range for this role is $24–$32 per hour, depending on experience.
