CNC Programmer II

About the Team: The engine manufacturing department's mission is to product high performing products & manufacturing systems by continuously innovating on cost, quality, and lead time.

Through cross-functional collaboration, high levels of accountability, and a focus on safety we support the Terran R program.

We are responsible for providing design feedback on new hardware iterations, developing new manufacturing methods and systems, and ultimately building engine and vehicle hardware for testing prior to our first launch.

Our team's highlights from the last 6 months include the MDC of the first Aeon-R engine, completing thousands of hours of PBF printing, building and testing over 50 valves of 26 different iterations, and implementing large scale process improvements along the way.

About the Role: As CNC Programmer, you will develop the programs, post G-code, and machine a variety of 3d-printed engine parts.

You will develop first article programs and optimize them into production programs.

You must be able to write a manufacturing plan, develop your own tooling and fixtures, and collaborate with manufacturing engineers to develop new machining processes.

In order to be successful in this role, you should be someone who thrives in ambiguity and is able to drive their own projects to completion.

You must have the passion, tenacity and resolve to work through challenging issues unique to precision-machined hardware.

Ideally, you are someone who has come from a fast paced, aerospace environment, having completed difficult projects while collaborating effectively with multidisciplinary groups.

More specifically, we are looking for: * Someone who can program and operate multi axis machines (2-axis, 3-axis, 5-axis, mill/turn) * Someone with experience programming and operating DMG-MORI machines (NLX, NTX, DMC FD, and DMU series) * Someone who can optimize programs and post code using Esprit, Mastercam or similar CAM software * Someone who has run lights-out production before About You: * 4+ years of CNC programming experience * Understanding of GD&T and tolerance stack-up * Ability to program and operate multi-axis high-precision machines (5-axis, 3 axis, lathe, mill/turn) * Ability to manually edit G-code paths/settings to optimize production programs * Experience creating detailed set up instructions * Experience transitioning parts from first article to production Nice to haves but not required: * Degree in Engineering or related technical field and 6+ years of relevant experience * Experience machining 3D-printed parts * Experience in a startup or agile development environment * Experience working in a flight development program * Experience working in fast-paced, R&D environment
