CNC Prototype EngineerThe Munkworks

You will own the path from part design to finished part. That means taking customer requirements and drawings, planning how to make them, programming the CNC machines, and improving the process as volume grows.

• Review customer requests and prints, and assess manufacturability, tolerances, and cost

• Model parts and fixtures in CAD (Fusion 360 or similar)

• Develop CAM toolpaths and write or edit G-code for CNC mills and lathes

• Plan processes: operation sequence, workholding, tooling, speeds and feeds

• Select and spec tooling and fixtures, and run proofs and first-article inspections

• Inspect parts with calipers, micrometers, thread gauges, and CMM or optical tools as available

• Troubleshoot machining issues (chatter, tolerance drift, tool wear, finish) and refine programs

• Maintain documentation: setup sheets, programs, revision control, inspection records

• Support small-batch and production runs, from one-offs to several hundred parts

Required

• 3+ years of CNC programming and process planning experience (or equivalent hands-on machining experience)

• Proficiency in CAD/CAM software (Fusion 360 preferred)

• Strong G-code knowledge and experience with 3-axis, 4-axis, 5-axis mills and lathes

• Experience holding tight tolerances on small precision parts, including threaded features

• Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings and GD&T

• Comfortable with metrology and inspection tools

Preferred

• Degree or certificate in mechanical engineering, manufacturing engineering, or machining technology (a degree is not required)

• Experience with 4-axis, 5-axis, Swiss, or other multi-axis work, and with plastics such as Delrin, as well as aluminum, steel, and stainless

• Familiarity with ITAR/ATF regulatory environments and firearm-accessory manufacturing

• Hands-on setup and operation experience

The Munkworks is a small custom manufacturing lab that designs and machines precision parts, including CAT and HUB suppressor adapters, thread protectors, and custom one-off and production-run components for customers. The shop's approach is to solve problems and bring value to its customers.
