  • Assist in movement of materials through impacted work centers to ensure customer schedules are met, troubleshoot and address bottlenecked processes/operations.
  • Maintain revision control for CNC programs and tooling instructions.
  • Analyze customer blueprints, 3D models, and specifications to determine manufacturability and generate time/material estimates for quoting.
  • Develop/Update manufacturing router sequences, Bill of Materials, and Work Centers for new and existing product lines, determining estimated setup and cycle times to maintain an accurate ERP system.
  • Select tooling, fixturing, and machine allocation based on material and part geometry for the fabrication of machined parts using 2 to 5 axis lathes; 3 and 4 axis horizontal and vertical mills; as well as 5 axis mills and conventional machining equipment.
  • Collaborate with Customer, Production and Quality teams to ensure DFM (Design for Manufacturability) ensures the most efficient manufacturing methods and techniques.
  • Organize the machine shop, priorities and workflow to meet customer requirements.

Requirements

  • 7+ years of experience in aerospace CNC machining, with demonstrated expertise in CNC programming and setup.
