CAD Programmer

The CAD Programmer is an experienced incumbent who provides the CNC Operators with accurate and detailed programming information to enable successful fabrication of jobs. The CAD Programmer ensures the accuracy of the layout for CNC granite jobs by setting up the cut parameters, tool path, and running simulations to determine programming accuracy. The CAD Programmer releases the detailed programming to Fabrication. Essential Functions and Responsibilities: Obtain job folder (ticket) from holding rack to determine jobs to program Use AutoCad clean up layout (delete overhang and cabinet lines) Separate layout pieces and put on a line for squaring Separate profile lines for diamond tool path Sequence layers from bottom up for tool paths Use Alpha Stone to set tool directions with tool paths from Titan machine styles Set pods along profile of countertops for maximum vacuum and support Turn on tool path and run cut simulations Complete CNC communication form (green) Put pod placement CNC communication form in plastic sheet and place on table Open Pre-Production calendar and enter relevant job data Open Bizops and create program event Release programmed event to Fabrication The CNC Granite Programmer is a position that requires a deep understanding and competency of AutoCad or other computerized design systems. The CNC Granite Programmer must be self initiated and focused. The CNC Granite Programmer must possess a high level of spatial intelligence, a critical eye to detail, have math competency, and the ability to recognize and solve problems on the fly. The CNC Granite Programmer will receive any necessary guidance and supervision from the CNC Supervisor; especially if there is some uncertainty concerning programming specifications for a job layout. However, the expectation is that the CNC Granite Programmer is self initialized and can function independently with minimal supervision. Running of cut simulations for countertops Correcting any defects discovered during simulations Creating program events for job Releasing program event to fabrication Qualifications: Required Qualifications: Previous AutoCad experience Previous drafting or design experience Previous stone work or carpentry experience High school diploma or GED equivalent Good math and reading comprehension Possesses good spatial intelligence Good computer skill; AutoCad, Microsoft savvy Demonstrated track record of good attendance Can remain focused while performing detailed tasks Self directed and can work independently with little supervision Effectively priorities work and possesses good time management skills Highly motivated and goal oriented Good logic and problem solving skills Job Type: Full-time Pay: $20.00 - $28.00 per hour Benefits: 401(k) 401(k) matching Dental insurance Employee discount Health insurance Health savings account Life insurance Paid time off Vision insurance Education: High school or equivalent (Preferred) Experience: CNC Programming: 2 years (Preferred) Work Location: In person
