Position Overview

We are seeking a skilled and motivated CNC 5-Axis Machinist/Engineer to join our precision engineering team. The successful candidate will be responsible for setting up, programming, and operating 5-axis CNC machines to produce complex, high-precision components. This role requires strong technical expertise, attention to detail, and a commitment to quality and efficiency in manufacturing.

Key Responsibilities

- Program, set up, and operate 5-axis CNC milling machines to manufacture precision components.
- Interpret and work from engineering drawings, 3D CAD models, and technical documentation.
- Optimize machining processes, cutting strategies, and tooling selection for efficiency and accuracy.
- Conduct first-off inspections, in-process checks, and final quality control using precision measurement tools (CMM, micrometers, gauges, etc.).
- Troubleshoot machining issues and adjust programs, tooling, or setups as required.
- Collaborate with engineering and production teams to improve manufacturability and reduce cycle times.
- Maintain machines, tooling, and equipment to ensure reliability and accuracy.
- Adhere to company safety procedures, quality standards, and continuous improvement initiatives.

Qualifications

- Apprenticeship, NVQ, or Diploma/Degree in Mechanical/Manufacturing Engineering (or equivalent experience).
- Proven experience operating and programming 5-axis CNC machines (Heidenhain, Siemens, Fanuc, or similar controls).
- Strong understanding of CAD-CAM software (e.g., Mastercam, Hypermill, Fusion 360, NX, or equivalent).
- In-depth knowledge of machining techniques, tooling, and material properties (metals, alloys, composites).
- Ability to read and interpret complex engineering drawings and GD&T.
- Strong problem-solving skills and keen attention to detail.
- Ability to work independently as well as part of a team in a fast-paced environment.

Preferred Skills (Nice to Have)

- Experience with high-precision industries such as aerospace, automotive, medical, or mold/toolmaking.
- Knowledge of lean manufacturing and continuous improvement practices.
- Familiarity with automation, robotics, or multi-machine cell setups.
