CNC Programmer II

CNC Machinist V-Programmer II

Generally, the CNC Machinist V-Programmer II creates, updates, adjusts, and verifies complex programs; operates numerically controlled machine tools to perform a series of progressive machining operations on work to close and exacting tolerances and finish specifications requiring the highest level of skill in accordance with required specifications while maintaining quality and safety standards. Creates programming instructions, operational data, and machine setup instructions defining and coding tool arrangements, material clamping methods, machine calibrations, and console settings for operations such as bore, mill, drill, face, thread, profiling, and contouring. Ensures proper dimensions and tolerance levels of product by monitoring malfunctions and out-of-tolerance machining and adjusting programs as necessary to achieve desired results.

At this level, Machinists are expected to program and operate the Company's most complex machines and as necessary or required, operate more than one machine simultaneously or program and operate a machine or machines simultaneously. These Machinists serve as the highest-level technical resources for other machinists and may be assigned certain "lead" responsibilities, and as such, must possess the utmost integrity and demonstrated maturity, together with strong, dependable, and effective soft, interpersonal, and teamwork skills. Must have both a continuing commitment to, and proven/demonstrated development and improvement of all such skills, together with a commitment and willingness to understand and embrace new techniques as they emerge and upgrade and develop skills to meet changes in the industry and/or the Company's business. Maintaining and driving a positive Company image and brand, whether inside or outside the work environment is expected at this level.
