Mastercam & SolidWorks CNC Master Machinist

About the role

This is a high-end, hands-on role for someone who can dominate: Dual-spindle lathes with live tooling, Y-axis, and bar feeder 3 & 4-axis milling with full 3D programming + probing True 5-axis work (Unified toolpaths, Blade, Flow) + probing Fixture design & production Advanced Vericut simulation & verification.

Responsibilities

• Create highly efficient Mastercam programs for complex mill-turn and 5-axis operations
• Design and model fixtures, parts, and workholding in SolidWorks
• Program, setup, and optimize dual-spindle/live tooling lathes
• Execute advanced 5-axis strategies including Unified, Blade, and Flow toolpaths
• Develop, run, and refine comprehensive Vericut simulations — including full machine model verification, collision detection, gouge checking, dynamic material removal, toolpath optimization, and cycle time analysis for both 5-axis mills and complex mill-turn operations
• Use Vericut to validate probe routines, sub-spindle transfers, and multi-axis synchronization before any code hits the shop floor
• Develop complete processes from drawing to finished high-precision part
• Troubleshoot and refine programs for exotic alloys and tight tolerances

Requirements

• Mastercam expert (must be strong — this is your primary tool)
• SolidWorks proficiency (modeling & fixturing)
• Deep experience with 5-axis (especially Unified/Blade/Flow)
• Dual-spindle lathe + Y-axis/live tooling background
• Strong Vericut experience required — you should be comfortable building and maintaining machine models, creating custom control files, simulating complex multi-axis setups with live tooling, and using Vericut’s optimization tools to reduce cycle times while maintaining safety and accuracy
• Proven track record machining Inconel, Titanium, and Stainless
• Self-driven problem solver who delivers first-part success every time

Qualifications

• Eligible to pass an FBI/DoD background check
• Eligible to obtain and maintain a Secret security clearance
• Veteran status strongly desired

Skills

• Mastercam
• SolidWorks
• Advanced 5-axis programming
• Vericut simulation and verification

Benefits

• Generous monthly Cost of Living and Housing stipend
• Excellent benefits (medical, dental, vision, 401k, PTO)
