Job description

Review real-world CNC job packs to determine whether the documentation is authentic, technically relevant, complete, and suitable for a manufacturing workflow research project. This is a documentation review role focused on evaluating submitted materials, not designing parts or programming machines.

Key Responsibilities

Review CNC job packs submitted by manufacturing companies, CNC shops, machinists, and production teams.

Assess whether documentation appears to originate from real CNC manufacturing work and is not publicly available, AI-generated, generic, or artificially created.

Confirm that files relate to the same part, job, drawing number, customer part number, or production workflow.

Evaluate the technical completeness of engineering drawings, ballooned drawings, tolerances, material specifications, setup sheets, tooling lists, process flow charts, control plans, and inspection documents.

Verify that production artifacts, including G-code, CAM output, toolpath documents, and setup instructions, are meaningful and connected to the job.

Identify missing or weak documentation and flag confidential, personal, customer, or company-sensitive information requiring redaction.

Provide a concise quality assessment with a recommendation to accept, accept with minor issues, request more information, or reject.

Documentation You May Review

• Customer requests, RFQs, purchase orders, or internal work orders.
• Job cards, route cards, travelers, engineering drawings, and ballooned drawings.
• CAD files, including STEP, IGES, DXF, DWG, native CAD files, CAM files, toolpath exports, operation sheets, and setup sheets.
• G-code or NC files, tooling lists, CNC setup instructions, process flow charts, and control plans.
• Material specifications, mill test certificates, raw-material inspection reports, in-process inspection reports, final inspection reports, CMM reports, and photos of parts, setups, fixtures, or machining processes.

Qualifications

Direct practical experience in CNC manufacturing, CNC programming, machining, or manufacturing quality control. Experience with CNC milling and/or CNC turning. Ability to read engineering drawings, GD&T, and tolerances. Familiarity with CNC setup sheets, machining instructions, CAD/CAM workflows, G-code or NC files, tooling lists, cutting tools, process routing, job cards, travelers, inspection reports, QC checklists, CMM reports, control plans, material certificates, and mill test reports. Comfort reviewing technical drawings and real shop-floor manufacturing documentation.

Work Terms

Remote engagement.

Compensation

$40 to $50 per hour.
