Job summary

RISINGSUN TECHNOLOGIES is seeking an experienced CNC Programmer for second shift, onsite in Greenville, SC. The role focuses on NC programming for multi-axis machines, process development, and shop-floor support.

With 4+ years in graphical CAM and NX CAM expertise, you will work with 2.5 m VTLs/ VBMs and 5-axis machines, ensuring tight tolerances. You will verify programs with Vericut and train operators during startups.

Qualifications

• Minimum 4 years in graphical CAM system CNC programming; NX CAM preferred.
• Offline CAM programming experience with 4- and 5-axis continuous milling, large VTLs or multi-axis grinding.
• Experience machining high-temperature alloys (Inconel, Rene, Hastelloy, Waspaloy) or heavy structural parts.
• Familiarity with modern CNC controls (Siemens Sinumerik, Fanuc, Okuma, Haas).
• Experience with on-machine probing and Renishaw macros.
• At least 2 years with advanced machine-tool controls: subroutines, macros, Boolean logic, closed-loop machining.
• Hands‑on machinist experience setting up and proving complex first-piece programs.
• Ability to maintain tight tolerances on large-format equipment (2.5 m) and manage deflection/thermal stability.
• Strong ability to read engineering drawings and machining requirements.
• Excellent problem-solving, organizational, geometry and trig skills.
• Ability to manage multiple projects and work both independently and in a team.
• Commitment to craftsmanship, safe setups and stable machining processes.

Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain CNC programs using Siemens NX CAM for multi-axis milling/turning/grinding/EDM.
• Support large VTLs, VBMs, and 5-axis machines including 2.5 m class equipment.
• Verify new CNC programs with Vericut before shop floor release.
• Incorporate Renishaw on-machine probing for part and process validation.
• Create programs following established standards and machining parameters.
• Assist manufacturing engineers and train operators during new/rebuilt startups.
• Provide daily shop-floor CNC programming and troubleshooting support.
• Support tooling and fixturing requirements for CNC tools.
• Develop and maintain CNC workstation instructions and machining methods.
• Lead improvements in safety, quality, cost and delivery.
• Communicate effectively across teams in a fast-paced organization.

Job description

Due to nuclear site access/or export-controlled project requirements, this role requires Candidates must also be willing to work on W2.

We’re Hiring: CNC Programmer – 2nd Shift

Work Model:Onsite

Schedule: 40 hours per week;

Pay Rate: $56/hr

We are seeking an experienced CNC Programmer to support CNC programming, process development, and shop-floor operations. This role requires expertise in vertical turret lathes (VTL), vertical boring mills (VBM), and 5-axis milling, including 3+2 and simultaneous 5-axis machining.

This is a second-shift position.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain CNC programs using Siemens NX CAM or other graphical CAM software for multi-axis milling, turning, grinding, and/or EDM.
• Support large VTLs and VBMs up to 2.5 meters, large head-head gantry 5-axis machines, and large vertical multipurpose turning/grinding machines.
• Verify new CNC programs using Vericut before releasing them to the shop floor.
• Incorporate on-machine probing using Renishaw cycles for part and process validation, including error trapping.
• Create programs that follow established standards and qualified machining parameters.
• Support manufacturing engineers and train operators during new or rebuilt machine startups and process improvements.
• Provide daily shop-floor CNC programming and troubleshooting support.
• Support and implement tooling and fixturing requirements for CNC machine tools.
• Develop and maintain CNC-related workstation instructions and machining methods.
• Initiate and lead improvements in safety, quality, cost, and delivery.
• Communicate effectively and collaborate across teams in a fast-paced, matrixed organization.

Required Qualifications and Technical Skills

• Minimum 4 years of experience in graphical CAM system CNC programming. Siemens NX CAM experience is strongly preferred, and candidates with this experience will receive priority.
• Demonstrated offline CAM programming experience with 4- and 5-axis continuous milling, large VTLs, or multi-axis grinding systems.
• Experience machining high-temperature alloys such as Inconel, Rene, Hastelloy, and Waspaloy, or heavy structural parts.
• Familiarity with modern machine controls, such as Siemens Sinumerik, Fanuc, Okuma, or Haas.
• Experience with on-machine probing, including Renishaw macros.
• At least 2 years of experience with advanced machine-tool controls, including writing and using subroutines, macro variables, Boolean logic, and closed-loop machining.
• Significant hands‑on machinist experience, including independently setting up and proving out complex first‑piece programs.
• Proven ability to maintain tight tolerances on large‑format equipment, including VTLs/VBMs up to 2.5 meters, while managing part deflection, work hardening, and thermal stability.
• Proficiency in interpreting engineering drawings and machining requirements.
• Strong problem‑solving, organizational, geometry, and trigonometry skills.
• Ability to manage multiple projects concurrently and work effectively both independently and within a team.
• A strong commitment to craftsmanship, safe setups, and stable machining processes.
