CNC Programmer

Overview Join a legacy tooling organization with over a century of manufacturing excellence, specializing in injection molding and precision machining.

Key Responsibilities

Develop, optimize, and maintain CNC programs using Mastercam for both small and large plastic injection molds.

Translate engineering drawings and specifications into efficient CNC routines to machine molds, dies, and related tooling.

Collaborate closely with design, engineering, and machining teams to ensure optimal setup, tool paths, cycle times, and accuracy.

Conduct program simulations and dry-runs to verify tool paths, correct errors, and minimize scrap.

Support mold repair and revisions, including reprogramming as needed to accommodate design or material changes.

Monitor CNC operations, adjust feeds and speeds, and make tooling recommendations to maintain quality and throughput.

Document program revisions, tooling data, and cycle-time improvements for shop-wide knowledge sharing.

Qualifications

Proficiency in Mastercam is required, with proven experience in generating 3 & 5‑axis toolpaths for complex mold components.

Strong understanding of CNC machining processes, tooling, G‑code, feeds, speeds, and machine kinematics.

Experience working in injection mold making, die/mold repair, or contract machining is preferred.

Ability to interpret technical drawings, perform basic calculations, and apply GD&T principles.

Detail‑oriented, strong problem‑solver with excellent communication skills and a collaborative mindset.

A proactive approach to process improvement and a commitment to workmanship and precision.

Why This Role Matters

Play a key role in a full-service mold making facility, helping take tooling from design to mold sampling in-house.

Work on a diverse mix of projects, from new mold builds to complex revisions and texturing.

Be part of a mid-sized team (50+ employees, ~45,000sqft facility) that values both craftsmanship and innovation.

Contribute to a company that has stood the test of time by maintaining quality, reliability, and exceptional customer service.
