Mastercam Multi‑Axis CNC Programmer -- Turning & VMC

Fivestar

Job Description

A day in the life in Hartford, CT

It’s 7:00 a.m. and you’re loading up Mastercam to shape a complex profile destined for the Defense, Firearms, or Medical sectors. You translate prints into efficient toolpaths, simulate in CamPlete, and review strategies with engineering. By mid‑morning, you’re on the floor validating your program, dialing in a CNC lathe for a tight‑tolerance finish, and documenting the setup so the next run is even faster. The afternoon brings a refinement pass on a 3‑axis VMC, a quick quality check, and a tweak to maximize throughput—closing the day with clean code, solid parts, and proud teammates.

What you’ll do

Create, refine, and optimize CNC programs in Mastercam for 2–5 axis work (lathe and mill).
Set up and operate CNC lathes to produce precise components that meet print and process specs.
Partner with engineering and production to ensure accuracy, repeatability, and throughput.
Inspect parts, verify dimensions, and confirm conformance to customer requirements.
Troubleshoot machining and programming issues and implement corrective actions.
Maintain clear documentation for programs, setups, and revisions.
Stay current with CNC advancements and best practices.

What you’ll bring

Hands‑on CNC programming experience.
Strong CAM proficiency, especially with Mastercam.
Experience with Siemens controls and CamPlete Verification Software.
Deep understanding of CNC lathe operations and core machining principles.
Ability to read and interpret technical drawings and blueprints.
Sharp problem‑solving skills and exceptional attention to detail.
Clear communicator and effective team collaborator.
High school diploma or equivalent; technical training/certifications are a plus.

Core proficiencies

CNC Tooling
CNC Programming
CNC Machine Setup & Changeover

Tools & tech you’ll use

CNC Mill (3–4 axis VMC)
CNC Lathe (2–4 axis)
CNC Grinder
CAM Software (Mastercam, Siemens NX)
CNC Lathe (5+ axis)

Industries & impact

Serve customers in the Defense, Firearms, and Medical industries where precision and reliability matter.

Benefits

Company‑paid family medical, dental, vision, disability, and life insurance coverage.
Potential sign‑on bonus.
