Wire EDM Programmer Technician

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we have description about company, position summary, essential functions, requirements, qualifications, skills, work environment, salary. We need to use

for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We should only include sections that have real content. The posting includes: About PrecisionX Group (company description) maybe "About the role"? Actually "About PrecisionX Group" is about company, not role. Could treat as "About the role"? But they said use headings e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can map content accordingly. We have: - About the role: Could combine Position Summary and maybe description of role. Use

About the role

then

with position summary. - Responsibilities: Essential Functions list (key responsibilities). Use

• . - Requirements: maybe "Position Qualifications And Competency Statements" includes safety, integrity, attitude, work ethic. Those are more like competencies. Could be under Requirements? Or Qualifications? The headings list includes Requirements and Qualifications separate. We can put "Requirements" for essential functions? Actually essential functions are responsibilities. Requirements could be "Position Qualifications And Competency Statements"? But they also have "Skills And Abilities". So we can map: - Requirements: maybe the "Position Qualifications And Competency Statements" (regard for safety, integrity, attitude, work ethic). Or we could treat those as "Qualifications". Let's decide: Use Requirements for the competency statements (safety, integrity, attitude, work ethic). Use Qualifications for the "Skills And Abilities" section (experience, CAM software, etc.). Use Skills maybe for something else? But we already used Skills for abilities. Actually we have both Skills And Abilities and Position Qualifications And Competency Statements. Could treat "Skills And Abilities" as Skills section, and "Position Qualifications And Competency Statements" as Qualifications. Or vice versa. The headings list includes Skills, Qualifications, Requirements. We need to decide mapping that preserves content. We have: - Position Qualifications And Competency Statements: includes safety, integrity, attitude, work ethic (these are more like personal attributes/competencies). Could be under Qualifications. - Skills And Abilities: includes experience, CAM software, GD&T, measurement tools, education, ITAR experience. That's more like skills/qualifications. Thus we could put:

  Qualifications

  with the competency statements (safety, integrity, attitude, work ethic) as
  .

  Skills

  with the Skills And Abilities bullet list. But we also have Requirements heading; maybe we can put "Key Responsibilities" under Responsibilities, and Requirements could be empty? We should not create empty sections. So we omit Requirements if no specific content distinct from responsibilities. However we have "Position Qualifications And Competency Statements" and "Skills And Abilities". Could treat "Requirements" as the combined qualifications and skills? But we need to avoid duplication. Better: Use sections: - About the role (position summary) - Responsibilities (essential functions) - Qualifications (position qualifications and competency statements) - Skills (skills and abilities) - Work Environment (work environment) - Pay (salary description) We should not include Benefits or Schedule as not present. We must preserve all substantive information. Ensure we don't lose any details. Let's extract content: About PrecisionX Group: description paragraph. Position Summary: The Wire EDM Programmer/Technician is proficient in programming, setting up, and operating Wire Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) equipment to produce precision-machined components to customer print specifications. This individual reads and interprets engineering drawings, programs parts using CAM software, and debugs/troubleshoots cuts at the machine, submitting First Article piece samples to Quality for approval. The Wire EDM Programmer/Technician takes directions from the Manufacturing Supervisor and works in close partnership with Tool Room, Engineering, and Quality personnel. Essential Functions (Key Responsibilities): list bullet points: - Programming & Setup - Read and interpret blueprints, engineering drawings, and GD&T specifications to determine machining requirements. - Program Wire EDM parts using CAM software (ESPRIT preferred) and post-process for machine controls (Agie Charmilles preferred). - Select appropriate wire type, tension, and machine parameters based on material and tolerance requirements. - Machine Operation & Troubleshooting - Set up and operate Wire EDM machines to cut precision parts from various materials (steel, carbide, exotic alloys, etc.). - Troubleshoot and resolve programming, machine, or process-related issues to minimize downtime and scrap. - Optimize cut paths and parameters to improve cycle time, surface finish, and part accuracy. - Quality & Documentation - Perform first-article inspections and in-process quality checks using precision measuring instruments (micrometers, calipers, height gauges, CMM, etc.). - Maintain accurate documentation of programs, setups, and inspection results per quality system requirements. - Maintenance - Perform routine machine maintenance and coordinate with maintenance staff on repairs. - Non-essential Responsibilities - Performs other duties as directed. - Provides backup and support to other tool room and engineering functions as needed. - Cross trains on additional CAM software or machine controls as needed Position Qualifications And Competency Statements: list bullet points: - Regard for safety – Ability to follow safety rules and processes and keeps own safety and the safety of others in the forefront of every action. - Integrity – Ability to demonstrate consistency between words and actions. Follows through on commitments. - Attitude – Ability to maintain a positive mindset towards achieving success and eagerness and willingness to accept and meet challenges. - Work Ethic – Ability to make decisions based upon ethical principles, considering how the choice will affect others. Skills And Abilities: bullet points: - Minimum 2+ years of experience programming and operating Wire EDM machines on any make/model (Sodick, Mitsubishi, Fanuc, AgieCharmilles, etc.); experience on AgieCharmilles equipment preferred. - Experience with CAM programming software for Wire EDM (Mastercam, GibbsCAM, ESPRIT, or similar); proficiency with ESPRIT preferred. - Proficiency in reading and interpreting technical drawings and GD&T; working knowledge of tolerances, surface finish requirements, and material properties. - Ability to use precision measurement tools and basic quality inspection techniques; familiarity with relevant quality standards (e.g., ISO 9001, AS9100). - High school diploma or equivalent required; technical degree or certificate in machining/manufacturing preferred. - Experience in an ITAR-regulated or aerospace/defense manufacturing environment a plus. Work Environment: paragraph: This position involves working in a manufacturing environment that is adjacent to the shop work environment. The employee must be aware of potential hazards, including, but not limited to, working in close proximity to moving mechanical parts, operating vehicles, exposure to electrical current, high temperatures, and chemicals. It's important to maintain a high level of alertness and caution while performing tasks in this work environment. Salary Description: "$40.00 to $50.00 per hour (pending experience)" We need to output HTML fragment only. We'll wrap each section in

  and then content. For About the role: we need to include both About PrecisionX Group and Position Summary? Could combine into one

  that includes both paragraphs. Or separate

  elements. We'll include two

  maybe. But we must not repeat job title as heading. Already not. We'll output:
