JE Technology
CAM Engineer
The Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) Engineer at JE Technology Solutions Inc. is responsible for developing and optimizing CNC machine programs for our laser cutters, waterjets, tube lasers, and related equipment. You will convert engineering drawings and 3D models into efficient machining instructions, ensuring precision, consistency, and productivity across our manufacturing operations.
Key Responsibilities
Continuously refine and improve machining processes to reduce cycle times, improve quality, minimize waste and maximize efficiency.
Use CAM software based on engineering drawings and CAD models to create optimized nesting programs for CNC laser cutter, waterjets, tube laser, etc.
Review blueprints and specifications to determine machining methods, tooling requirements, and sequence of operations.
Simulate toolpaths and verify program accuracy to prevent collisions and ensure proper tool engagement.
Select appropriate cutting tools, fixtures, feeds, and speeds and machining sequences for optimal performance and tool life.
Collaborate with engineers, machinists, and production staff to ensure manufacturability, accuracy, efficiency and safe operation.
Document setup sheets, tool lists, and program revisions for reference and quality control.
Support troubleshooting efforts related to CNC programming, tooling, or machining issues by diagnosing and resolving issues.
Maintain organized program files and contribute to standardization of machining processes.
Shift: 5:00 a.m. – 3:30 p.m. daily, 4 days/week.
Qualifications Education & Experience
Associate degree in Manufacturing Technology, Machining or related field preferred.
Equivalent combination of education and experience will be considered.
2–3 years of hands‑on CNC machining experience required.
Prior experience in CAM programming or setup optimization strongly preferred.
Knowledge, Skills & Abilities
Proficiency with CAM software and CAD tools (e.g., Mastercam, Fusion 360, SolidCAM).
Strong understanding of CNC machining operations (milling, turning, drilling).
Working knowledge of G‑code and M‑code programming.
Familiarity with materials, tooling, and machining parameters.
Ability to read and interpret blueprints, GD&T, and engineering drawings.
Strong attention to detail, spatial reasoning, and problem‑solving skills.
Ability to collaborate effectively across departments to optimize workflows in a fast‑paced manufacturing environment.
