Are you looking to grow your manufacturing career with a stable, sound, and family-oriented company? J&J Machine Inc. is seeking a dependable CNC Programmer to join our growing team. In this role, you won't just run parts—you will perform complete setups from scratch. Whether you have foundational experience in one area or want to expand your skillset across Mills, Lathes, Swiss, and Mill-Turn machines, we provide the extensive training and supportive environment you need to succeed and advance.

Position Overview: CNC Programmer

As a CNC Programmer at J&J Machine, you are the brain of our manufacturing process. You won't be writing repetitive, basic code; you will be utilizing advanced CAD/CAM software to optimize toolpaths for complex 5-axis geometries, multi-axis Swiss turn configurations, and high-precision milling centers. We offer an environment where your technical problem-solving skills are valued, your creativity is encouraged, and your career stability is secure.

While other machine shops shy away from difficult parts, J&J Machine excels at them. We have built a reputation of excellence for machining exotic plastics and precious/refractory metals (such as Titanium, Inconel, and Hastelloy) to extremely close tolerances.

Our shop floor is driven by cutting-edge machining capabilities including:

• Vertical & Horizontal Milling Capabilities
• 5-Axis Milling Capabilities
• Swiss Machining Capabilities
• Turning Capabilities
