Senior Swiss-Type CNC Programming Specialist (Aerospace)

Sussek Machining - USA

Job Description

Job Description

Nelson Numeric — A Sussek Machine Company

Join us in Bloomington, MN to lead advanced Swiss turning for flight-critical aerospace components. As the senior specialist, you’ll own the entire programming journey—from NPI and DFM collaboration through cutting strategy optimization and on-the-floor support—in a rigorous AS9100/ITAR environment.

A day in this role
  1. Early on: Partner with quoting teams to provide DFM insights, create process plans, and establish tooling strategies for new aerospace parts (NPI).
  2. Mid-morning focus: Develop, validate, and refine complex Swiss-type CNC programs, dialing in cutting parameters to boost throughput and repeatability.
  3. Afternoon on the floor: Work side-by-side with setup machinists and operators to troubleshoot G-code, resolve machining challenges, and continuously improve toolpaths.
  4. Quality & tooling, all day: Select cutting tools, trial emerging tooling technologies, uphold AS9100 and ITAR requirements, and support FAI/PPAP documentation.
  5. Always improving: Lead Lean/Six Sigma efforts targeting shorter cycles and lower scrap while driving standard work and best practices.
What you’ll bring
  • Experience: 5 to 10+ years programming CNC Swiss equipment; aerospace or medical device background is strongly preferred.
  • Education: AAS in CNC Machining or similar, or equivalent hands-on experience.
  • Technical mastery: Deep knowledge of Swiss-type machinery, advanced GD&T, and complex multi-axis machining.
  • Software: High proficiency with CAD/CAM (GibbsCAM or Mastercam).
  • Quality & compliance: Familiarity with AS9100 systems and ITAR requirements.
Core strengths we value
  • GD&T
  • CNC Tooling
  • Troubleshooting Skills
  • CNC Programming
  • CNC Machine Setup & Changeover
  • Aerospace Manufacturing
Tools you’ll use
  • Tsugami CNC Swiss Lathes
  • GibbsCAM

If complex multi-axis challenges and tooling innovation excite you—and you’re driven to make measurable gains on the shop floor—we’d like to connect.
