With more than 120 operations and approximately 20,000 employees worldwide, Precision Castparts Corp. is the market leader in manufacturing large, complex structural investment castings, airfoil castings, forged components, aerostructures and highly engineered, critical fasteners for aerospace applications. In addition, we are the leading producer of airfoil castings for the industrial gas turbine market. We also manufacture extruded seamless pipe, fittings, and forgings for power generation and oil & gas applications;

commercial and military airframe aerostructures; and metal alloys and other materials for the casting and forging industries. With such critical applications, we insist on quality and dependability - not just in the materials and products we make, but in the people we recruit.

PCC is relentless in its dedication to being a high-quality, low-cost and on-time producer; delivering the highest value to its customers while continually pursuing strategic, profitable growth.

In 2016, Berkshire Hathaway, led by Chairman and CEO Warren

E. Buffett, acquired Precision Castparts Corp.

The Mill Turn NC Programmer works closely with the Division leaders of NC Programming and NC Team Leads to develop high quality CNC programs for millturn products produced on vertical or horizontal lathes, including multiaxis turning centers, twinspindle machines, and livetool capable platforms. The role includes designing tooling and work holding, optimizing machining strategies, and supporting proveout on the shop floor. The programmer ensures that all programs meet manufacturing, quality, and safety requirements while aligning with company standards and production schedules.

• Develop CNC programs for vertical and horizontal lathes, including millturn and multitasking machines, using appropriate CAM software and based on engineering drawings, 3D models, and technical specifications.
• Create and modify 3D solid models from 2D drawings, PDFs, and customer‑supplied geometry when needed.
• Design tooling, work holding, and fixture concepts to support turning, milling, crossdrill, and multiaxis operations.
• Optimize machining processes for cycle time, tool life, and manufacturability, balancing efficiency with quality.
• Ensure CNC programs meet internal standards, machining best practices, and production requirements.
• Interpret and apply GD&T, model based definitions, and tolerance schemes to ensure dimensional compliance.
• Support program proveouts on the shop floor, collaborating with machinists and manufacturing engineers to resolve issues.
• Understand and apply FAI requirements, inspection methods, and aerospace documentation standards (if applicable).
• Maintain knowledge of ITAR, ISO 9001, AS9100, and other quality/compliance requirements.
• Work cross‑functionally to support new product introduction, continuous improvement, and special projects.
• Perform additional duties as assigned to support production and engineering objectives.

• 7‑10+ years of CNC programming experience in a manufacturing environment, including turning centers and millturn equipment.
• Strong knowledge of CAM software (CATIA, Mastercam, NX, or equivalent) and postprocessing workflows.
• Proficient understanding of GCode and MCode for turning, milling, and multichannel machines.
• Experience with tooling selection, insert application, feeds/speeds optimization, and chip control strategies.
• Ability to design and document fixtures, jaws, and work holding solutions for complex millturn operations.
• Familiarity with Vericut or other simulation software for toolpath validation.
• Strong understanding of GD&T, blueprint interpretation, and metrology techniques.
• Proficient with Microsoft Office tools and capable of producing clear documentation.
• Ability to collaborate effectively with machinists, quality engineers, and production teams.
• Strong problem-solving abilities and a…
