Swiss-Type CNC Lathe Programmer -- Tsugami/Fanuc Specialist

Express Employment Professionals - Torrington

Job Description

Job Description

Step into a day where precision meets craft

You arrive to a shop where people know your name, ideas travel fast, and quality comes first. After a quick huddle with operators and quality, you load and refine programs on Swiss-type CNC lathes—many of them Tsugami machines equipped with Fanuc controls . You adjust tooling, tighten cycle times, and validate that the path you’ve optimized meets tight tolerances and customer specs.

What your day looks like
  • Author, refine, and maintain CNC programs for Swiss-type CNC lathes , ensuring stable, efficient production.
  • Leverage your experience on Tsugami with Fanuc controls to streamline setups and improve throughput.
  • Design machining strategies that enhance quality, reduce cycle time, and extend tool life.
  • Interpret blueprints and GD&T to align programs precisely with customer requirements.
  • Troubleshoot issues on the floor and lead continuous improvement efforts.
  • Partner with operators, quality, and leadership to hit production and quality targets.
What you bring
  • Hands-on experience programming Swiss CNC lathes.
  • Ability to create, edit, and optimize CNC code.
  • Proven background machining tight-tolerance precision components.
  • Strong blueprint literacy and GD&T expertise.
  • Background in aerospace, medical, or other high-precision environments preferred.
Why you’ll love it here
  • A small, established manufacturer where craftsmanship is recognized and your voice matters.
  • Close-knit team: be known by name—not a number—and see your ideas implemented.
  • Clean, climate-controlled manufacturing environment .
  • Less red tape; direct access to decision-makers for quick progress.
  • Real ownership of processes and a chance to improve how work gets done.
  • Competitive pay and a stable, long-term career path.

If you’re a Swiss CNC programmer who thrives on elevating process capability and building top-tier parts, we’d love to connect you with this opportunity.
