CNC Programmer-Machinist, Geotechnical Components

A day in this roleYou’ll begin by reviewing blueprints for drilling and geotechnical parts, selecting the right alloy, and deciding whether to hand-write G-code or generate toolpaths in CAM. You’ll mount fixtures, set tooling and work offsets, and run a first-article to dial in features to ±0.001\". As production ramps, you’ll monitor quality, troubleshoot chatter or tool wear, and document inspection results. Throughout the day, you’ll coach Operators and Assistants, keeping safety and PPE top of mind.What you’ll doProgram CNC equipment using G-code and/or CAM softwareExecute complex setups: fixturing, tooling selection, and offset establishmentMachine close-tolerance components from steel, aluminum, and specialty alloysVerify parts against blueprints and maintain dimensional accuracyDiagnose machining issues and apply corrective actionsMentor CNC Operators and Assistants to elevate team capabilityRecord production and inspection data accuratelyMinimum qualificationsHigh school diploma or GED3+ years of hands-on CNC machining experienceStrong G-code programming proficiencyProven ability to hold ±0.001\" tolerancesPreferred backgroundAssociate degree in Manufacturing TechnologyCAM experience (e.g., Mastercam, Fusion 360)Experience machining drill rods or downhole toolsPhysical demands & environmentExpect prolonged standing and lifting up to 50 lbs, with exposure to cutting fluids, metal dust, and noise.
