Computer Numerical Control Programmer

Job Description

We’re supporting a precision manufacturing company in Longmont that just won a new aerospace contract with a major national client. They’re adding a CNC Programmer to their team and are looking for someone ready to take real ownership of programming, not just editing code.

This is a mill-focused programming role with flexibility for either 2nd shift or dedicated weekend shift, ideal for candidates who want consistent hours and meaningful, hands-on programming work.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Independently create and maintain CNC milling programs for 3‑, 4‑, and 5‑axis mills using CAM software (Mastercam preferred, other platforms acceptable).
• Translate 2D drawings and 3D CAD models into optimized toolpaths, considering cutting strategies, speeds, feeds, tooling, and fixturing for production efficiency.
• Program new parts from scratch, including complex geometries, multi-step operations, and tight-tolerance aerospace components.
• Validate programs through simulation and dry-runs, adjusting for material, tool deflection, and machine capabilities.
• Support machinists and setup personnel during program prove-outs and production runs, providing technical guidance as needed.
• Troubleshoot dimensional or process issues in real time, implementing revisions to maintain quality and throughput.
• Interpret engineering drawings, assemblies, and GD&T to ensure programs meet dimensional and tolerance requirements.
• Maintain documentation of programs, revisions, and setup instructions in compliance with company quality standards.
