Manufacturing Engineer - CNC Programmer

or drop it." So we could include a short p for location, travel, relocation, visa sponsorship. But we need to preserve ALL substantive information. Location is substantive. Travel up to 5% maybe also substantive. Relocation assistance available. Visa sponsorship not available. We could include a short paragraph under maybe "About the role" or separate? But we shouldn't create extra headings unless needed. Could add a

after the intro summarizing location etc. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Thus structure:

About the role

... company intro + job summary? Actually we could split: About the role could include company description and job summary. Or we could have About the role for company description, and Responsibilities separate. But we have only one About the role heading allowed. We'll put company description and job summary in that section. Then

Responsibilities

• each responsibility. Then

  Requirements

  maybe for required skills? Or we could have Requirements for required skills, Qualifications for education, Skills for preferred skills. But we need to avoid thin sections. Let's think: The posting has Required Skills and Preferred Skills. Could combine Required Skills and Preferred Skills under Skills? But we have separate headings for Skills and Requirements. The instruction: "use

  for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)". So we can use those as needed. We have content for Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe required skills), Qualifications (education), Skills (preferred skills), Benefits, Pay. We'll not include Schedule. We need to ensure we don't create empty sections. Let's extract each piece. About the role: combine company intro paragraph and job summary. Company intro: "Your Work Shapes the World at Caterpillar Inc. When you join Caterpillar, you're joining a global team who cares not just about the work we do – but also about each other. We are the makers, problem solvers, and future world builders who are creating stronger, more sustainable communities. We don't just talk about progress and innovation here – we make it happen, with our customers, where we work and live. Together, we are building a better world, so we can all enjoy living in it." Job summary: "As a Manufacturing Engineer - CNC Programmer in East Peoria, Illinois, you will provide technical expertise that improves the safety, quality, cost, reliability, and efficiency of complex manufacturing operations. You will evaluate production equipment and processes, identify improvement opportunities, and help implement sustainable engineering solutions. This position combines hands-on manufacturing support with lean manufacturing, process improvement, equipment reliability, collaborative automation, and project execution. You will work closely with operations, technical teams, and support functions to solve manufacturing challenges and strengthen production capability. The successful candidate will use data, sound engineering judgment, and structured problem-solving to turn operational needs into practical results." We can combine into one

  maybe two paragraphs. Responsibilities: list from "Key Responsibilities". Let's extract each sentence separated by period. - Develop, optimize, and sustain safe, efficient manufacturing and tooling processes for machining complex components used in heavy equipment production. - Create, validate, and maintain CNC programs for multi-axis machining and turning centers, including process prove-out and production support activities. - Design, engineer, and specify tooling, workholding, fixtures, jigs, machine setup requirements, and related manufacturing solutions to improve quality, safety, and productivity. - Develop and maintain manufacturing documentation, including operation specifications, work instructions, setup drawings, tooling standards, cycle time analyses, and process sheets. - Lead root cause analysis, troubleshooting, and continuous improvement initiatives addressing safety, quality, throughput, cost, reliability, and process bottlenecks. - Evaluate, implement, and support manufacturing equipment, tooling, automation, process improvements, and advanced manufacturing technologies. - Manage technical projects involving new equipment, tooling, software, facility enhancements, and process development, including planning, scheduling, budgeting, and execution. Make each

  . Requirements: maybe "Required Skills" list. - Manufacturing Engineering: Working knowledge of manufacturing engineering methods, equipment, specifications, standards, and practices, with the ability to support the design, installation, maintenance, or improvement of production processes. - Manufacturing Processes: Ability to create, evaluate, and optimize manufacturing processes and CNC programs, including process controls, manufacturing standards, production activities, and deliverables, while driving the adoption of modern manufacturing technologies. - Problem-Solving and Critical Thinking: Ability to gather and organize relevant information, define problems, consider stakeholder perspectives, evaluate risks and benefits, and recommend productive solutions. - Lean Manufacturing: Working knowledge of lean principles, work-cell considerations, waste reduction, lean assessment tools, and measures of manufacturing effectiveness. - Project Management: Ability to contribute to project plans, cost and schedule estimates, resource requirements, progress tracking, stakeholder coordination, and status reporting. - Education or Equivalent Experience: A degree or equivalent practical experience is desired for this position. We could put Education under Qualifications instead. But we have Qualifications heading. Let's move Education to Qualifications. Thus Requirements will be the first five items (excluding Education). Qualifications will be Education. Preferred Skills: list. - Experience supporting manufacturing equipment, production processes, factory operations, or process improvement in a complex or high-volume manufacturing environment. - Experience with Creo and NX NC programming, including toolpath development, program verification, post-processor evaluation and modification, and machining process optimization. - Experience with collaborative automation, collaborative robots, robot risk assessments, automation testing, or deployment of automated manufacturing solutions. - Familiarity with manufacturing problem-solving and continuous-improvement approaches such as root-cause analysis, process mapping, waste reduction, standard work, or production-performance analysis. - Experience coordinating engineering projects involving equipment changes, manufacturing-process modifications, cost estimates, schedules, suppliers, or cross-functional stakeholders. - Ability to communicate technical findings clearly and coach operations or technical personnel through process, equipment, or technology changes. Benefits: list as bullet points. - Medical, dental, and vision benefits - Paid time off plan (Vacation, Holidays, Volunteer, etc.) - 401(k) savings plans - Health Savings Account (HSA) - Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) - Health Lifestyle Programs - Employee Assistance Program - Voluntary Benefits and Employee Discounts - Career Development - Incentive bonus - Disability benefits - Life Insurance - Parental leave - Adoption benefits - Tuition Reimbursement Also note "These benefits also apply to part-time employees." Could add as a sentence after list. Pay: Pay Range $97,530.00 - $146,290.00. Also note compensation may vary etc. We can include that as a short paragraph. We also need to include location, travel, relocation, visa sponsorship maybe as a short p under About the role or separate? Let's add a short p after About the role maybe: "Location: East Peoria, IL (LL). Travel: Up to 5%. Relocation Assistance: Available. Visa Sponsorship: Not Available." We must not repeat job title as heading. Already not. Now produce HTML. We'll output:
