CNC Swiss Programmer | Up to $4,000 Hiring Bonus

Build Small Parts That Do Big Things

KMM Group is hiring an experienced CNC Swiss Programmer to support complex, tight-tolerance manufacturing for medical device, aerospace, defense, space, and high-tech customers.

Swiss programming means solving real manufacturing problems on mission-critical components where precision, process control, and smart decisions matter. You will develop, modify, optimize, and support CNC Swiss programs for complex parts made from metals and engineered plastics. This is not basic button-pushing or repetitive programming work.

If you are the kind of programmer who thinks beyond the code, understands how tooling, workholding, material behavior, coolant, inspection, and process stability all fit together, this role gives you room to use that knowledge.

🔧What You’ll Do

• Create, modify, optimize, and troubleshoot CNC Swiss machining programs

• Program and support 9-axis, 12-axis, and multi-axis Swiss machinery

• Work with Citizen Swiss machines preferred, with Star, Tornos, or similar Swiss lathe experience also valued

• Develop CNC programs using Esprit, PartMaker, SolidCAM, Mastercam, or equivalent CAM software

• Use and edit G-code to improve cycle time, part quality, tool life, and process consistency

• Interpret blueprints, customer specifications, tolerances, and manufacturing requirements

• Support machining of complex part features including 3D surfaces, thin walls, angular features, micro-machined details, tight tolerances, and small precision components

• Select and design cutting tools, collets, guide bushings, grippers, fixtures, and inspection support tools

• Create setup sheets, work instructions, inspection plans, and process documentation

• Collaborate with machinists, setup technicians, quality inspectors, engineers, and production leaders

• Support high-volume, unattended, and lights-out machining through tool life strategy, coolant management, and process control

• Troubleshoot machining issues related to tooling, fixturing, material movement, dimensional variation, finish, burrs, and repeatability

• Mentor machinists and setup team members on advanced Swiss machining techniques

• Help improve production machining processes for efficiency, repeatability, and quality
