We are currently seeking a Laser Programmer to work on site at our North Las Vegas facility.

About the Role

As the Laser Programmer, you will be responsible for creating, optimizing, and maintaining CNC programs that drive our laser cutting operations. You will translate engineering designs into precise machine instructions, ensuring high-quality output, efficient material usage, and consistent production performance.

You’ll work closely with engineering and production teams to support both new product introduction and ongoing manufacturing, with a strong focus on sheet metal fabrication.

This is a highly hands-on role that requires both technical expertise and problem-solving ability—you’re not just writing programs, you’re making sure they work in the real world.

What You’ll Do

CNC Programming & Optimization

Create, edit, and maintain CNC programs (G-code) for laser cutting and related machinery
Utilize CAD/CAM software (e.g., Mastercam, Fusion 360) to develop accurate and efficient programs
Optimize programs for speed, material utilization, and machine efficiency
Support programming for Amada Mitsubishi laser systems and related equipment

Blueprint & Design Interpretation

Interpret engineering drawings, blueprints, and 3D models
Apply GD&T principles to ensure precision and compliance with specifications
Translate design intent into manufacturable processes

Process Setup & Tooling

Select appropriate tooling, fixtures, and machine parameters (feeds, speeds, offsets)
Support setup and validation of new jobs on the production floor
Ensure programs are production-ready and repeatable

Troubleshooting & Continuous Improvement

Diagnose and resolve programming and machining issues in real time
Debug programs and adjust for machine performance or material variation
Partner with engineering and operations to improve processes and reduce waste

Quality Assurance

Inspect first-run parts using precision measuring tools (calipers, micrometers, etc.)
Ensure all output meets engineering and quality standards
Identify and address root causes of defects related to programming or process

Cross-Functional Collaboration

Work closely with manufacturing engineering, machinists, and production teams
Support new product introduction and prototyping efforts
Contribute to process improvements across fabrication and finishing operations

Requirements We’re Looking For

Strong experience with CAD/CAM software (e.g., Mastercam, Fusion 360)
Proficiency in G-code programming for CNC machinery
Experience with laser cutting systems (Amada Mitsubishi preferred)
Solid understanding of machining processes, materials, and fabrication methods
Ability to read and interpret complex blueprints and GD&T

Core Capabilities

Strong mathematical skills (algebra, geometry, trigonometry)
High attention to detail and commitment to precision
Ability to troubleshoot and solve problems independently
Mechanical aptitude and understanding of machine behavior

Education

High school diploma required
Technical certificate or associate degree in machining, manufacturing, or engineering preferred

Nice to Have / Expanded Scope

Experience with automation in a manufacturing environment
Exposure to powder coating or paint shop processes
Familiarity with integrated production environments (cutting → finishing workflows)

What Success Looks Like

Programs run efficiently with minimal errors or rework
High-quality parts produced consistently to specification
Reduced material waste and improved cycle times
Strong collaboration between programming, engineering, and production

What You'll Get

Be part of a rapidly growing, innovative company transforming package management solutions.
Work within a collaborative team environment guided by clear core values and EOS methodology.
Competitive compensation, professional growth opportunities, and impactful work.
401(k) with employer match
Generous health, dental, and vision benefits
Accrued Paid Time Off and Sick Leave

Benefits:

401(k)
