Programmer Assistant

Project Coordinator - CAD/CAM - CNC Laser

Salary: $23 - $26 per hour

Join a team that has been redefining metal design and architectural craftsmanship since the 1970s. As an industry leader in precision‑engineered metalwork, we’ve set the benchmark for quality in high‑visibility commercial areas across the country. We partner with designers, engineers, and contractors to deliver high‑quality architectural components used in streetscapes and public infrastructure nationwide.

We’re expanding our Inside Sales team with a service‑driven professional who thrives on helping customers get exactly what they need—quickly, accurately, and with a great attitude.

We’re hiring a Programming Assistant to support our fabrication team by bridging the gap between project management, design, and production. This role works closely with the Project Manager and Laser Operator to verify work orders, organize CAD files, and assist with nesting plans to ensure jobs move efficiently through the shop.

• Make light updates to DXF files (cleanup, revisions, basic edits)
• Assist in preparing and organizing laser nests to improve workflow and material use
• Ensure correct revisions and files are issued to the shop floor
• Communicate between PM, laser, and press brake teams to avoid delays or rework
• Help track job progress and flag issues early

• 1–3 years in manufacturing, fabrication, or construction/project support
• Basic experience with CAD or DXF files (AutoCAD, Solid Works, or similar)
• Familiarity with sheet metal or fabrication environments is a strong plus
• Highly organized – able to manage multiple jobs/files at once
• Strong communication – comfortable working with both office and shop teams

• Exposure to laser cutting, nesting, or fabrication workflows
• Entry-level experience with nesting software or CAD/CAM tools

• Brand new facility with new machinery
• Direct-hire position
• Dayshift – 4/10 hour shifts
