CNC Mechanical Engineer
Full-Time | Competitive Salary + Benefits
About the Opportunity
We are a precision machining and manufacturing organization serving advanced industries, specializing in high-mix, tight-tolerance components. As we continue to grow, we are seeking a CNC Mechanical Engineer to help scale operations and support increasingly complex work.
Position Overview
This role combines engineering and CNC programming responsibilities to develop, optimize, and execute machining processes. You will play a critical role in ensuring new projects are technically sound, production-ready, and scalable, while supporting CNC programming and continuous improvement initiatives.
This is a hands-on, high-impact role working closely with engineering, programming, and shop floor teams.
Key Responsibilities
Engineering & Process Development
Serve as a technical resource for Sales to support quoting, including machining methods and cycle time estimates
Define manufacturing processes, routing, and operation sequences for new parts
Ensure first-time job readiness before release to production
CNC Programming Support
Assist in developing and maintaining CNC programs (approximately 25% of role)
Support toolpath strategy, optimization, and program debugging
Collaborate closely with CNC programmers and machinists
Production Support & Continuous Improvement
Troubleshoot machining and process-related issues
Drive improvements in cycle time, repeatability, and first-pass yield
Contribute to machining standards, tooling strategies, and best practices
Cross-Functional Collaboration
Partner with Production Planning to ensure realistic schedules
Work with engineering, machining, and leadership teams to improve manufacturability
Manage engineering change orders (ECOs) with clear communication of impact
What Success Looks Like
Strong first-time success on new parts and builds
Improved efficiency, cycle times, and process consistency
High-quality CNC programs and optimized machining strategies
Effective collaboration across engineering, programming, and production teams
Qualifications
Required
Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical or Manufacturing Engineering (or equivalent experience)
1–5 years of experience in precision machining or high-mix manufacturing environments
Experience with CNC programming (Mastercam, Fusion 360, or similar CAM software)
Experience with 3D modeling software (SolidWorks or similar)
Strong understanding of GD&T, tolerancing, and machining processes
Ability to read and interpret complex engineering drawings
Strong problem-solving and analytical skills
Excellent communication and teamwork skills
Preferred
Experience with first-time builds or prototype work
Exposure to fixture design and tooling strategies
Lean manufacturing or continuous improvement experience
Hands-on machining experience
Work Environment
Hands-on role with time split between office/workstation and shop floor
Collaborative, fast-paced manufacturing environment
Why Join Us?
Opportunity to work on complex, high-value components
Direct impact on process development and operational growth
Collaborative and skilled team environment
Strong opportunity for career growth and development
