  • CAM Process Optimization through Internal Feedback Integration: Actively seek out and incorporate feedback from team members and technical staff to boost productivity and refine machining programs and overall CAM process procedures
  • Create repeatable output across the production of hundreds of units, utilizing partner teams’ feedback in the pursuit of continuous improvement opportunities
  • Rigorously identify gaps and communicate these findings to CAM Process Designers for integration or revision
  • Fixture Design and CAD Modeling: Design and model 3D fixtures conforming to Hadrian’s fixture design standards with the Siemens NX CAD platform. Embrace advanced fixture design processes (e.g., 3-2-1 locating, Poka-Yoke error-proofing, equation-driven design) for creating efficient and robust fixtures
  • Adhere to industry-standard CAD design-tree practices and follow internally developed workflows
  • Software Proficiency: Operate efficiently within the hyperMILL and NX environments, utilizing best practices while fully leveraging Hadrian’s automation suite for effective design and program creation
  • Maximize the use of Hadrian’s Co-Pilot CAM integration throughout the CAM Programming process, fully leveraging it on a daily basis
  • Effectively utilize a variety of communication tools such as email, messaging applications, Microsoft Office suite, etc

Requirements:

  • Proven experience in programming 3 and/or 5-axis CNC machine tools within a production environment of high-tolerance precision components
  • Prior involvement in the aerospace sector or similar industries with stringent requirements
  • Knowledge of safety procedures, quality standards, and tool selection is essential
  • Average understanding of Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerances (GD&T)
  • Capability to interpret data (such as CMM reports), identify trends, or tools needed to gather understanding of dimensional instability, and apply insights to enhance the manufacturing process
  • Demonstrated ability and willingness to try new things, adopt new approaches to the industry, and have the vision and discipline necessary to push through development scenarios within an operational setting
  • Demonstrated commitment to integrity while facing difficult production challenges and debugging issues. Valuing action and team-centric solutions over anything else

Nice to have:

  • Advanced Materials: Steels, Stainless, Titanium, Inconel
  • 5-Axis Proficiency and Mill-turn experience is a plus
  • Proficiency in integrating probing routines within CNC programming
  • Skills in manufacturing data analysis and software aiding this analysis are used to identify patterns, trends, and inefficiencies in the manufacturing process
  • Being a forever student of the trade. Maintaining awareness and understanding of current trends, technologies, and foundational practices such as Industry 4.0, IoT, Artificial Intelligence applications within manufacturing, and lean principles. Adaptability to evolving technologies and processes is fundamental to Hadrian’s mission
What we offer:
  • 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
  • Offers Equity
