Join our innovative team as a CNC Manufacturing Engineer, where you’ll play a crucial role in shaping the future of our manufacturing processes! You'll be at the forefront of developing, optimizing, and maintaining CNC operations to boost efficiency, uphold quality, and drive cost savings. Collaborate with a talented group of design engineers, machinists, and quality assurance professionals to achieve production goals and foster a culture of continuous improvement.
What You’ll Do:
- Design and implement cutting-edge CNC machining processes, including tooling, fixtures, and programming for multi-axis CNC machines.
- Utilize CAD/CAM software to create and optimize CNC programs, ensuring they meet product specifications and adhere to quality standards.
- Analyze manufacturing processes to uncover opportunities for improving productivity, reducing cycle times, and minimizing waste.
- Partner with design engineers to ensure new products are manufacturable, providing valuable Design for Manufacturability (DFM) insights during the design phase.
- Take the lead in diagnosing and resolving manufacturing issues, implementing solutions that prevent future occurrences.
- Evaluate and recommend CNC equipment, tooling, and technologies that align with production needs.
- Create and uphold detailed process documentation, including work instructions, setup sheets, and standard operating procedures.
Tools You’ll Use:
- CAD Software: SolidWorks, Siemens NX
- CMM Equipment: Hexagon Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM)
- CAM Software: Mastercam, Esprit, Surfcam, Siemens NX
What You Bring:
- At least 5 years in CNC machining and process engineering, with hands-on experience in CNC programming, setup, and operation.
- Proficiency in CAD/CAM software (like SolidWorks, Esprit, NX CAM) and simulation tools (such as Vericut), along with advanced skills in probe and macro programming.
- Strong understanding of multi-axis CNC machining (3, 4, and 5-axis mills, and multi-axis mill-turn lathes) and GD&T (ASNI Y14.5).
- Familiarity with Lean principles and a knack for process optimization.
Preferred Qualifications:
- A Bachelor’s degree in manufacturing engineering, mechanical engineering, or a related field.
- Experience in PC-DMIS CMM programming and/or automation engineering.
- Familiarity with ERP/MRP systems (preferably Epicor) for production planning.
- Certifications like Six Sigma Green Belt, AS9100, or ISO 9001 experience are advantageous.
