The Impact You'll Make

 

You’ll play a hands-on role in shaping how products are made—helping drive quality, efficiency, and innovation across our machining operations. This is an opportunity to bring your CNC programming expertise directly to the production floor and see the real-world impact of your work every day.

In this role, you’ll be a trusted technical partner to engineers, operators, and leadership, ensuring machines run at peak performance while continuously improving processes. Your ideas and insights will help reduce waste, increase productivity, and support the launch of new products.

If you enjoy solving complex machining challenges, mentoring others, and turning ideas into optimized processes, this role puts you at the center of it all.

  • Lead CNC programming and process optimization using tools like Mastercam, ensuring efficient, high-quality machining for mills and lathes

  • Troubleshoot equipment issues and drive improvements in uptime (OEE), cycle time, and overall manufacturing performance

  • Design and implement fixturing, tooling, and gauging solutions to enhance precision and repeatability

  • Partner with engineers and production teams to support new product introduction (NPI) from concept through full production

  • Develop clear work instructions and training to upskill operators and ensure consistent, high-quality execution

  • Apply structured problem-solving methods (e.g., 5 Whys, 8D) to reduce defects, eliminate scrap, and improve throughput

What We're Looking For

 

  • Strong experience in CNC programming and machining, including hands-on setup and troubleshooting

  • Proficiency with Mastercam and programming for CNC mills and lathes

  • At least 5 years in a manufacturing or industrial environment with a track record of improving processes

  • Knowledge of tooling, fixturing design, and inspection methods

  • Ability to communicate clearly and train or mentor operators and technicians

  • Technical education (engineering, machining, or vocational training) or equivalent hands-on experience

What You'll Get from Us

 

  1. We promote from within and support your learning with mentoring, training, and access to global opportunities.
  2. You’ll have flexibility, autonomy, and support to do your best work while maintaining a healthy work-life balance. Your well-being matters to us.
  3. We strive to create an inclusive work environment where people of all backgrounds are respected, and valued for who they are.
  4. You’ll receive benefits like annual bonus, paid vacation, pension plans, personal insurance, and more. These vary by country and contract, but they’re worth asking about—we think they’re pretty great.
