Industrial Talent GroupWe're supporting a precision manufacturing company in Longmont that just won a new aerospace contract with a major national client.
They're adding a CNC Programmer to their team and are looking for someone ready to take real ownership of programming, not just editing code.
This is a mill-focused programming role with flexibility for either 2nd shift or dedicated weekend shift, ideal for candidates who want consistent hours and meaningful, hands-on programming work.
What You'll Be DoingIndependently create and maintain CNC milling programs for 3‑, 4‑, and 5‑axis mills using CAM software (Mastercam preferred, other platforms acceptable).
Translate 2D drawings and 3D CAD models into optimized toolpaths, considering cutting strategies, speeds, feeds, tooling, and fixturing for production efficiency.
Program new parts from scratch, including complex geometries, multi-step operations, and tight-tolerance aerospace components.
Validate programs through simulation and dry-runs, adjusting for material, tool deflection, and machine capabilities.
Support machinists and setup personnel during program prove-outs and production runs, providing technical guidance as needed.
Troubleshoot dimensional or process issues in real time, implementing revisions to maintain quality and throughput.
Interpret engineering drawings, assemblies, and GD&T to ensure programs meet dimensional and tolerance requirements.
Maintain documentation of programs, revisions, and setup instructions in compliance with company quality standards.
2–5 years of hands-on independent CNC programming experience in a production environment.
Able to independently generate and maintain programs with minimal oversight.
Comfortable programming mills.
Experience with any CAM software is acceptable; Mastercam experience is a strong plus.
Familiarity with multi-axis machining (3, 4, or 5 axis).
Pay & Schedule
Up to $42/hour depending on experience
Shift Options: 2nd Shift or Weekend Shift
Why This Is a Great OpportunityProgrammers coming from a 3-axis background will gain hands-on exposure to 4th and 5th-axis programming through real production work and mentorship from experienced programmers and leads.
You'll help support a new aerospace program not just backfill existing work.
Strong emphasis on programming ownership, not button-pushing or minimal edits.
Work is focused on the kinds of parts programmers enjoy working on; precision machining that demands quality and reliability.
