CNC Engineer

CNC Engineer

Founded in the United Kingdom and rapidly expanding across the United States, this advanced manufacturing organization operates a growing network of software-enabled precision manufacturing facilities focused on rebuilding industrial capacity through technology, automation, and manufacturing excellence. We employ a growing team of engineers, machinists, programmers, and manufacturing professionals across multiple domestic and international facilities and recently established a 25,000-square-foot Dallas-Fort Worth manufacturing facility that serves as a major hub for production, engineering, and operational expansion. 

The Dallas operation supports high-precision CNC machining and advanced manufacturing for critical industries where quality, repeatability, and speed are essential. We support customers across aerospace, defense, energy, space systems, robotics, satellites, drones, nuclear technologies, and other advanced industrial sectors that require highly controlled manufacturing processes and rigorous quality systems. 

The CMM Programming & Metrology Engineer will serve as the enterprise technical authority for coordinate metrology, building the inspection standards, systems, and methodologies that ensure dimensional consistency and manufacturing excellence across a growing global production network.
