Full Job Description
The Role

CAM Execution is a hybrid Process Engineering role operating at the intersection of CAM programming, applications engineering and inspection. The team is responsible for diagnosing, troubleshooting, and resolving failures across the full manufacturing process, ensuring that programmed intent translates into reliable, repeatable production outcomes.

This role works across CNC programs, machine setups, CMM inspection, GD&T interpretation, operator workflows and cutting tool applications to identify where breakdowns occur and implement robust, production-grade fixes. It is a process ownership role focused on end-to-end manufacturing stability.

What You'll Do
  • Root Cause Analysis - Diagnose and correct failures across CNC programs, machine setups, inspection workflows, and on machine cutting parameters. Analyze CMM data, validate against customer specifications and GD&T requirements, inspect fixtures, and verify machine processes. Implement solutions that are repeatable, simple, and production stable.
  • CAM 12 Manufacturing Interface - Bridge the gap between CAM programming and shop-floor execution. Refine tool paths, machining strategies and cutting parameters based on real-world machine behavior, material response, and inspection feedback.
  • Team Collaboration - Work cross-functionally with CAM Programming, Quality, CMM Programming, Applications, Automation, and Go-To-Market teams to develop informed and aligned process solutions.
  • System Improvement - Identify systemic weaknesses in the manufacturing process and drive improvements across the factory. Standardize solutions, eliminate recurring issues, and increase overall process robustness.

What We're Looking For
  • CAM Programming - 5+ years programming aerospace parts
  • High-Level Problem Solving - Ability to decompose complex, multi-variable manufacturing issues and converge on root cause quickly. Capable of implementing effective solutions in high-complexity environments.
  • Process Engineering - Has a track record of successfully machining difficult parts with stringent requirements. Understands the pitfalls of operation selection, material removal, tooling application, and material science.
  • Machining Knowledge- Has applicable experience with a variety of machine types (mills, lathes), materials (alum, stainless, hard metals), tooling application, workholding, and fixture design.
  • GD&T - Strong understanding of GD&T and engineering print reading.
  • Communication - Clear and effective written and verbal communication. Ability to collaborate across teams and convey technical information accurately.


What Will Set You Apart
  • Experience with 5-axis milling machines, vertical mill turn and horizontal mill turn.
  • Experience with HyperMILL, NX, Heidenhain, Fanuc and Celos
  • Hard metal cutting experience (Inconel, Icytough, Stainless)
  • Applications engineering for machining processes
  • Process Engineering for high production environments including 2turnkey2 processes


Benefits for Full-time Employees
  • Medical, dental, vision, and life insurance plans for employees
  • 401k
  • Relocation support may be provided for certain situations, based on business need.
  • Flexible vacation policy

About Hadrian

Hadrianadri?ja?n?s]; 24 January 76 – 10 July 138) was Roman emperor from 117 to 138. He was born in Italica, a Roman municipium founded by Italic settlers in Hispania Baetica and he came from a branch of the gens Aelia that originated in the Picenean town of Hadria, the Aeli Hadriani. His father was of senatorial rank and was a first cousin of Emperor Trajan. Hadrian married Trajan's grand-niece Vibia Sabina early in his career before Trajan became emperor and possibly at the behest of Trajan's wife Pompeia Plotina. Plotina and Trajan's close friend and adviser Lucius Licinius Sura were well disposed towards Hadrian. When Trajan died, his widow claimed that he had nominated Hadrian as emperor immediately before his death. Rome's military and Senate approved Hadrian's succession, but four leading senators were unlawfully put to death soon after. They had opposed Hadrian or seemed to threaten his succession, and the Senate held him responsible for their deaths and never forgave him. He earned further disapproval among the elite by abandoning Trajan's expansionist policies and territorial gains in Mesopotamia, Assyria, Armenia, and parts of Dacia. Hadrian preferred to invest in the development of stable, defensible borders and the unification of the empire's disparate peoples. He is known for building Hadrian's Wall, which marked the northern limit of Britannia.
