Methods Engineer/CNC Programmer

Overview & Responsibilities

Overview & Responsibilities

The Big Picture

This is more than a programming role—it's a chance to shape how things get made. As a Methods Engineer, you'll provide the technical and administrative direction that keeps our manufacturing operation running at its best. You'll generate CNC programs, create route sheets, and work side-by-side with the team on the floor to solve problems, reduce costs, and improve quality. If you like a role that blends hands-on problem-solving with strategic thinking, this is it.

What This Role Really Means

This is both a line and support position.

• Line responsibilities mean you'll help control and coordinate production activities to keep things moving smoothly.

• Support responsibilities mean you'll develop and implement CNC programs and computer-generated route sheets that directly impact how work gets done.

You'll also help direct and coordinate activities across a multi-functional department—including training programs, developing new manufacturing processes, and driving cost reduction.

Supervision & Leadership

While this is not a full-time supervisory role, you'll step into a supervisory capacity when needed. You'll also lead and direct Bargaining Unit Personnel, so strong communication and people skills are a must.
