Manufacturing Engineer IV

Location: Greenville, SC
Duration: 12 Months

Responsibilities:

• Program, process development, and shop support for large equipment including VTL, VBM, and Gantry 5-axis machines.
• Generate and maintain CNC programs using NX-CAM or other software for multi-axis milling, turning, grinding, and EDM.
• Verify new CNC programs using Vericut before release to the shop floor.
• Incorporate on-machine probing using Renishaw cycles for part and process validation.
• Create programs following standards and qualified machining parameters.
• Provide CNC-related support to Manufacturing Engineers and operator training during machine startup or process improvements.
• Offer daily operator support in CNC programming and troubleshooting on the shop floor.
• Support and implement tooling and fixturing requirements for CNC machine tools.
• Generate and support workstation instructions for CNC-related issues.

Preferred Skills:

• Experience creating 5-axis CNC programs using a CAM system, preferably NX.
• Minimum 1 year of experience with high-level machine tool controls, including sub-routine (macro), Renishaw probing routine, and variable-based programming, as well as CLM (closed loop machining).
• Significant hands-on background as a machinist, capable of setting up and proving complex first-piece programs.
• Experience managing tight tolerances on large-format equipment where part deflection, work hardening, and thermal stability are critical factors.
• Extensive experience machining nickel-based superalloys common in Heavy Duty Gas Turbine (HDGT) or Aerospace industry.
• Strong problem-solving and organizational skills, with above-average shop math skills in geometry and trigonometry.
• Experience using Vericut or other CNC verification/machine simulation software.
• Familiarity with multiple machine controls including Fanuc, Haas, Okuma, and Siemens.
• Proficiency in interpreting drawing requirements.
• Ability to multi-task and manage multiple projects concurrently.
