NC Programmer

Hiring Hiring a NC Programmer for a contract with a client located in Everett/Renton, Washington . Title: NC Programmer Duration: 12 months (with the possibility of extension) Job Description: Join a high-performing fabrication team supporting aerospace structural production in Everett, WA. As a contractor Numerical Control Programmer (NCP) on our Machining/Tooling team, you’ll drive the NC programming, setup documentation, and machining strategy for complex multi-axis parts used on commercial airplanes. You will collaborate closely with planning, aerospace engineering, tooling, and shop‑floor operators to turn engineered concepts into producible, high-quality parts. Primary Responsibilities: Create, verify, and revise Machine Control Data (MCD), tooling geometry, and setup documentation for multi-axis CNC machines (primarily 5-axis). Interpret engineering drawings, planning documentation, and manufacturing requirements to develop robust NC programs for aluminum and hard‑metal parts. Develop multiple setups and operations for complex part geometries, ensuring fixturing, tooling, and machine selection support producibility and tolerances. Use simulation/verification tools (e.g., Vericut) to validate programs and eliminate collisions or gouges prior to shop‑floor execution. Coordinate with planning, manufacturing engineering, tooling design, and machine operators to optimize cycle times, reduce scrap, and address manufacturability concerns. Skills: NC programming experience for production machining or equivalent combination of education and experience. Demonstrated experience programming 5‑axis CNC machines for aerospace parts (aluminum and hard metals). Proficient in CATIA V5 NC programming. Proficient in NC simulation/verification tools such as Vericut. #J-18808-Ljbffr
