CNC Manufacturing Programmer – Haas/SolidCAM Specialist

Location:

Benton, TN

Schedule:

Monday–Thursday, 6:30am–5:00pm (first or second shift) — enjoy a four-day workweek

Picture your day: you roll in at 6:30am, pull the print for a new component, and decide on the best strategy to machine it. You open SolidCAM to create toolpaths, head to a Haas mill or lathe to set tooling and work offsets, and run a careful prove-out. You inspect to GD&T, tweak code right at the control, and document everything so the next run is smooth—and no one needs to call you t’s life in a job shop where parts change often and resourceful problem-solvers thrive.

What you’ll doOwn jobs from programming through setup, prove-out, and documentation.

Create SolidCAM toolpaths; edit programs at the machine control as needed.

Set tooling, work holding, work/tool offsets, and verify first-article quality.

Read prints, interpret GD&T, and inspect your own work for conformance.

Adapt quickly to changing part mix typical of a job shop environment.

What you bring3+ years working on CNC mills or lathes.

Hands-on experience setting up your own work on Haas equipment.

Ability to read blueprints, apply GD&T, and self-inspect parts.

Confidence editing G-code/M-code at the control.

CAM background

SolidCAM experience is a major plus (training provided if needed).

Experience with Mastercam, CAMWorks, SOLIDWORKS CAM, GibbsCAM, Esprit, or Fusion is welcome.

Bonus skills
