Job Summary

Methods (SolidCAM, Mastercam, and Unigraphics NX Programming) Engineer

- No. of openings: 4
- Position: Senior Methods & CNC Programming Engineer
- Location: Bangalore
- Job Type: Full-Time (On-site)

About the Role We are looking for an experienced and skilled Methods & CNC Programming Engineer with 4 to 10 years of expertise in precision machining environments.

The ideal candidate will be responsible for process planning (methods engineering) and generating robust, optimized NC codes for multi-axis CNC Milling and Turning machines. You will leverage your strong software proficiency in SolidCAM, Mastercam, and Unigraphics NX (Siemens NX) to translate engineering drawings into efficient shop-floor production routines while minimizing cycle times and tool wear.

Responsibilities

- Process Planning & Methods Optimization:
- Define manufacturing methods, process sequences, and routing sheets for complex mechanical components from engineering drawings.
- Optimize machining processes for both CNC Milling and CNC Turning operations to enhance productivity and reduce production costs.

- CAM Programming & Simulation:

- Generate, verify, and post-process advanced NC programs using SolidCAM, Mastercam, and Unigraphics NX.
- Perform virtual machining simulations to check for collisions, gouging, and path efficiency before releasing programs to the shop floor.

- Tooling & Fixture Selection:

- Select appropriate cutting tools, holders, and inserts based on material properties and machining parameters (speeds and feeds).
- Design or collaborate on modular/special-purpose fixture designs to ensure clamping stability and precision.





- Shop-Floor Troubleshooting & Support:

- Provide hands-on technical support to CNC operators during setup, trial runs, and First Article Inspection (FAI).
- Troubleshoot machining errors, resolve tool breakage issues, and continuously improve cycle times.

- Documentation & Compliance:

- Maintain up-to-date setup sheets, tool lists, and standard operating procedures (SOPs) for all programmed components.
- Ensure compliance with quality standards and safety protocols.

Qualifications

- Education: Bachelor s Degree or Diploma in Mechanical Engineering / Production Engineering / Manufacturing Technology.
- Experience: 4 to 10 years of core hands-on experience in Methods Engineering, CNC Programming, and Machining Operations in a precision manufacturing setup.
- Software Proficiency:
- Mandatory expertise in either SolidCAM, Mastercam, and Unigraphics NX (Siemens NX) CAM modules.
- Sound knowledge of CAD software for 3D model manipulation and drawing interpretation.

- Technical Knowledge:

- Strong mastery of CNC Milling (3-axis / 4-axis / 5-axis) and CNC Turning (2-axis / multi-axis) technologies.
- In-depth understanding of GD&T; (Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing), metallurgical properties, and cutting tool behavior.

- Soft Skills: Solid analytical mindset, problem-solving capability, and the ability to work cross-functionally with production and quality teams.
