Compensation: $50.00 – $75.00/hr (DOE) + Full Benefits & Relocation Assistance
Job Type: Direct Hire, Full-Time
The Opportunity Are you a CNC expert who has moved beyond the shop floor and into the world of digital manufacturing? Randstad is building a talent pipeline for the Bay Area’s leading Aerospace, Medical Device, and Semiconductor innovators. We aren't just looking for "button pushers"—we are looking for the architects of the machining process.
If you are a master of complex geometries and thrive in high-precision, low-volume R&D environments, we want to represent you to the top-tier employers in Silicon Valley.
Core Competencies We Are Seeking
- Advanced CAM Programming: Expert-level proficiency in Mastercam, Autodesk Fusion 360, or Esprit.
- Multi-Axis Complexity: Proven experience programming for 4 and 5-axis vertical and horizontal machining centers (e.g., Haas, Matsuura, DMG Mori).
- Mill-Turn / Swiss Expertise: Ability to program complex "done-in-one" operations for Citizen or Tsugami lathes.
- GD&T Mastery: Deep understanding of ASME Y14.5 standards. You should be able to look at a blueprint and visualize the most efficient tool path and fixturing strategy immediately.
- Process Optimization: Experience with high-speed machining (HSM) techniques, tool life management, and cycle time reduction. Qualifications
- Experience: 5+ years of CNC programming in a high-precision environment.
- Technical Education: Journeyman papers, NTMA certification, or an AS/BS in Mechanical Engineering/Manufacturing is highly preferred.
- Software: Must be able to demonstrate proficiency during a technical interview (programming test).
- Compliance: Knowledge of ITAR/EAR regulations and ISO 9001/AS9100 quality standards.
- Why Connect with Randstad? As a Direct Hire specialist, I don’t just find you a "gig." I manage your career transition by:
- Confidentiality: Your current employer won’t know you’re looking until you’re ready.
- Negotiation: We ensure your total compensation package reflects the high-cost-of-living in the Bay Area.
- Access: Many of our clients’ most prestigious roles are never posted on public job boards.
