Job Description

Job Description

Mastercam CNC Programmer–Machinist (Multi‑Axis Turning & Milling)

Axis Technologies Inc. — Lowell, MA

Compensation: $35–$45/hour based on experience, plus second‑shift differential | Employment: Full‑time | Shifts: 1st & 2nd

Your day at Axis

Step into our climate‑controlled, 14,000 sq. ft. shop where prototypes and production runs move from concept to reality. Your morning might start in Mastercam, refining toolpaths for a tight‑tolerance lathe job with live tooling. By midday, you’re at the machine—setting up, dialing in offsets, and proving out the program. In the afternoon, you’re checking features on the CMM, verifying GD&T callouts with micrometers and bore gauges, and collaborating with a teammate on tooling strategy for the next multi‑axis mill part. Accuracy, craftsmanship, and teamwork define the rhythm.

What you’ll work on
  • Develop, optimize, and troubleshoot CNC programs for both lathe and milling operations using Mastercam .
  • Set up and operate CNC equipment; adjust tools, workholding, and offsets for first‑article and production runs.
  • Perform in‑process and final inspections using CMM, micrometers, bore gauges, and other precision instruments.
  • Apply GD&T throughout programming, setup, and quality checks.
  • Maintain tooling, support light fabrication as needed, and uphold safety and quality standards.
What you bring
  • 3+ years programming with Mastercam (v19 or newer) .
  • Proven experience as a CNC Programmer in a manufacturing environment.
  • Strong blueprint reading, mechanical aptitude, and solid GD&T knowledge.
  • Background in tooling setup/maintenance and use of precision measuring equipment.
  • A detail‑driven, problem‑solving mindset and a collaborative approach.
Why Axis Technologies

Since 1987, Axis Technologies has delivered precision CNC machined parts and sub‑assemblies with pride. We invest in people and tools—multi‑axis mills, live‑tooling lathes, advanced inspection equipment, and dedicated Mastercam workstations—so skilled craftspeople can do their best work.

Pay, perks, and environment
  • Competitive pay: $35–$45/hour based on experience, plus second‑shift differential .
  • Benefits: 401(k) with 4% match , health/dental/vision insurance, paid time off, and a retirement plan.
  • Modern, air‑conditioned facility with up‑to‑date multi‑axis equipment and inspection technology.
  • Stable, long‑established company with a quality‑first mindset.
