Description and Responsibilities

Manufacturing Engineers & CNC Programmers at LHM Engineering are responsible for programming, setting up, troubleshooting, and operating CNC milling equipment including 5-axis machining centers with automation in both prototype and production environments.

LHM primarily programs in Autodesk Fusion 360, but we also utilize Mastercam and SolidWorks on certain projects. Our 5-axis mills are Hermle machines equipped with Heidenhain controls and 60 pallet automation cells, and we also run Brother Speedio 3-axis machines for secondary operations and simpler components. This role is ideal for those looking to work with a large amount of autonomy in a small shop with high-end equipment and demanding customers. LHM is a fun and collaborative place to work for passionate engineers, machinists, and programmers.

This role includes both hands-on setting up of your own jobs as well as collaborating with set-up personnel to transfer processes effectively. Engineers at LHM also regularly contribute to improvement projects such as custom shop software, templated workflows, automation integration, optimized assembly, and inspection workflows. This is a day-shift position, but exact start and end times can be flexible based on your commute and other factors if you prefer an early morning start or a shifted evening finish time.
