Manufacturing Engineer/CNC Programmer

ITT Goulds Pumps is looking for a Manufacturing Engineer/CNC Programmer to join their team in Seneca Falls, NY. The CNC Programmer will be responsible for developing software programs that direct CNC (computer numerically controlled) machines to cut and shape metal/material to produce components for industrial pump applications. In addition, the CNC Programmer will be using 3-dimensional computer designs (CAD models) and/or blueprints that define the configuration of the required component. Furthermore, the ideal candidate should have strong expertise in software programs to generate the program codes that guides CNC machines to perform machining operations, which result in precise finished components – efficiently and safely. The CNC Programmer will use MasterCam software or other CAM software to generate program codes that control the operations of a CNC machines, such as mills and lathes and mill turns.

Essential Responsibilities
