CNC Programmer / CNC Operator
Do you have several years of experience in CNC machining and are accustomed to independently programming, preparing, and finding solutions for complex parts? Do you want to work in an operation where production is rarely repetitive and where your technical competence and problem-solving skills will truly be put to use? Cliff Models is now seeking an experienced CNC Operator/CNC Programmer who wants to work with unique assignments, advanced machining, and great variation in everyday life.
CNC Operator As a CNC Operator/CNC Programmer at Cliff Models, you will have a qualified and independent role where you work with the entire process – from analyzing customer documentation and planning production to programming, machining, and follow-up.
Unlike traditional series production, Cliff Models works largely with unique assignments. This means you need to be able to assess how a part is best manufactured, choose an appropriate machining strategy, and independently program based on the documentation you receive.
You will work with, among other things:
- CNC programming and preparation
- Planning of machining strategies and method selection
- Design and adaptation of fixtures
- Rigging, setup, and operation of machines
- Control and monitoring of production
- Quality control and follow-up of finished parts
- Problem-solving and optimization of the manufacturing process
You will work with both traditional machine tools, advanced freeform equipment, and 5-axis CNC machines. Since the assignments vary, you will collaborate closely with colleagues regarding technical solutions, while also being expected to drive your own work independently from documentation to finished part.
The position is full-time, Monday–Friday 06:30–15:30, with the possibility of flexibility.
What do we offer you? At Cliff Models, you will get a technically stimulating role where programming, problem-solving, and creativity are a natural part of the work. Here, CNC machining is not about running the same part day after day – you are continuously faced with new assignments, materials, and technical challenges.
You will become part of an inclusive and flat organization with short decision paths, an open atmosphere, and great opportunity to influence how the work is carried out. For the right person, there are also good opportunities to continue developing and take on greater technical responsibility over time. To facilitate everyday life, Cliff Models offers flexible working hours, with the possibility to start or finish an hour earlier or later.
Who are we looking for? We are looking for you who have already built up good experience in CNC machining and programming and who feel confident in independently taking on new manufacturing assignments.
You are accustomed to working from drawings, models, or other technical documentation and can translate them into a functioning manufacturing process. You need to be able to think beyond the machine operation itself – analyze the assignment, plan the setup, program, and solve the technical challenges that arise along the way.
Since Cliff Models works with many unique and customized assignments, we believe you will thrive best if you are solution-oriented, technically curious, and enjoy finding new ways to solve problems. You work in a structured and meticulous manner, but are also flexible when conditions change.
You also need to appreciate collaboration. Here, solutions and ideas are discussed together, which means we are looking for you who are happy to contribute your experience while being open to others' perspectives.
