Senior CAM Engineer

At Orqa, we’re building technology that allows humans and machines to see the world like never before. We bring together engineers, creators, and innovators who push the boundaries of what’s possible - from cutting-edge FPV systems to advanced Remote Reality solutions, and toward the next generation of robotics. And behind every great technology, there’s great organization.

As a Senior CAM Engineer you will be responsible for transforming complex CAD designs into highly optimized, production-ready toolpaths . You will work closely with design and manufacturing teams to ensure components are machined efficiently, accurately, and reliably.

What You'll Do

• Develop and optimize CNC programs for 3-axis, 4-axis, and 5-axis machining
• Generate efficient, collision-free toolpaths using CAM software (e.g., Mastercam, Fusion 360, NX CAM, HyperMill, etc.)
• Select and define cutting tools, feeds and speeds, machining strategies based on material and geometry
• Perform simulation and verification to ensure collision avoidance, dimensional accuracy, optimized cycle time
• Optimize machining processes for cycle time reduction, surface finish improvement, tool life extension
• Collaborate closely with Machinists, CAD engineers, Manufacturing engineers to refine designs and resolve production challenges, design and improve fixturing and setup strategies for complex parts, maintain clear and structured documentation for programs and revisions

What We Expect

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical/Manufacturing Engineering or equivalent hands-on experience
• 5+ years of professional CAM / CNC programming experience
• Strong experience with: 3-axis and 5-axis machining, high-precision components and tight tolerances
• Proficiency in at least one advanced CAM platform: Mastercam, Siemens NX, Fusion 360, HyperMill, or equivalent
• Deep understanding of: machining dynamics (chip load, tool wear, chatter), cutting tool selection and behavior, machine kinematics (especially 5-axis)
• Experience working with materials such as: aluminum alloys, titanium, steels and/or composites

Bonus

• Experience with aerospace or defense manufacturing
• Familiarity with GD&T (ASME Y14.5) and tolerance-driven machining
• Experience with post-processors and G-code optimization/customization
• Knowledge of high-speed machining (HSM) techniques
• Experience machining: thin-wall structures, complex freeform surfaces
