Key Responsibilities:

1. CNC Programming & Operation:

• Create, modify, and optimize CNC programs based on blueprints, technical drawings, or CAD models.
• Set up, calibrate, and operate CNC machines (mills, lathes, etc.) to produce accurate parts.
• Troubleshoot machine issues, make adjustments to programs, and ensure smooth production.
• Conduct test runs and inspections to ensure parts meet quality standards.
• Use advanced CNC software to generate programs (e.g., Mastercam, SolidWorks, AutoCAD).

2. Supervision & Leadership:

• Lead and supervise a team of CNC operators and machinists.
• Delegate tasks, monitor work progress, and ensure deadlines are met.
• Provide training and support to team members in CNC operations, programming, and safety protocols.
• Evaluate employee performance and provide feedback for improvement.
• Foster a culture of teamwork, continuous improvement, and safety.
• 3. Quality Control & Compliance:
• Ensure that finished products meet all quality specifications and tolerances.
• Inspect tools, parts, and machines for wear and tear; perform routine maintenance.
• Enforce adherence to safety standards and operating procedures.
• Maintain accurate records of machine maintenance, downtime, and part production.

4. Production Scheduling & Planning:

• Collaborate with production managers to ensure efficient scheduling and the timely delivery of parts.
• Monitor machine uptime and minimize production delays.
• Assist in capacity planning and resource allocation to meet production demands.

5. Collaboration & Communication:

• Work closely with engineering, design, and quality control teams to improve manufacturing processes.
• Communicate with suppliers to ensure the availability of materials and parts for production.
• Provide regular updates to the management team on production status, issues, and solutions.

Required Qualifications:

• High school diploma or equivalent (Associates degree in Manufacturing Technology or related field preferred).
• Proven experience (typically 3+ years) as a CNC programmer and supervisor.
• Expertise in CNC programming languages (e.g., G-code, M-code).
• Experience with CNC software (e.g., Mastercam, Fusion 360, SolidWorks).
• Strong understanding of machining processes, tolerances, and materials.
• Excellent leadership and team management skills.
• Strong problem-solving abilities and attention to detail.
• Knowledge of safety regulations and best practices in a manufacturing environment.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Certification in CNC programming or machining (e.g., NIMS, FANUC).
• Experience with multi-axis CNC machines.
• Familiarity with lean manufacturing principles.
• Previous experience in a supervisory or leadership role.
• Physical Requirements:
• Ability to stand, walk, and move around a manufacturing floor for extended periods.
• Must be able to lift and carry up to [specify weight] pounds.
• Manual dexterity and hand-eye coordination for operating machinery and inspecting parts.

Work Environment:

• Manufacturing floor with exposure to machinery, noise, and varying temperatures.
• Safety equipment (e.g., hearing protection, safety glasses) must be worn at all times.
• Occasional overtime or weekend work may be required to meet production deadlines.
