CNC Programmer – 2nd Shift | Contract-to-Hire | $35–45/hr
We’re working with a global manufacturing leader that produces highly specialized components used in industrial applications around the world. Known for their engineering excellence, low employee turnover, and exceptional shop culture , this company is seeking a CNC Programmer to join their team on 2nd shift as they scale operations with new equipment and expanded output.
This is a contract-to-hire role with strong intent to convert after six months. This onboarding model is used consistently across both plant and engineering hires and is viewed as a pathway to long-term employment. The facility is fully air-conditioned , extremely well-maintained, and staffed by a tenured and team-oriented workforce . Once converted, employees gain access to a best-in-class benefits package , including free medical coverage, profit sharing, bonus pay, and tuition reimbursement.
Position Overview
The team recently added a new Citizen-Miyano CNC lathe and needs a programming expert to take ownership of the machine during the second shift. The machine uses a Mitsubishi control , so prior experience programming Mitsubishi or comparable Fanuc systems is preferred.
This is a hands-on hybrid role , expected to be roughly 50% programming and 50% setup/operation , depending on the workload. The engineering team provides part designs in SolidWorks/AutoCAD, and you’ll be responsible for generating toolpaths in MasterCAM , post-processing the code for Mitsubishi, setting up the machine, and either running parts yourself or supporting the operator as needed.
You’ll be the only programmer on second shift , so prior experience programming from scratch and the ability to work independently are essential.
