  • Demonstrated experience programming 4 and 5-axis continuous milling, large VTLs, or multi-axis grinding systems using graphical CAM software (Siemens NX strongly preferred).
  • Experience machining high-temperature alloys or heavy structural parts.
  • Familiarity with modern controls such as Siemens Sinumerik, Fanuc, Okuma, or Haas.
  • Experience with on-machine probing, including Renishaw macros.
  • Educational background and/or experience related to machining or manufacturing engineering.
  • Demonstrated ability to perform the duties of this position through relevant experience, training, or education.

Preferred Qualifications
