About Us

At Starpath Robotics, we’re shaping the future of robotics through precision engineering and bold ideas. Our work thrives on the edge of what’s possible — and we’re looking for people who want to push those boundaries with us. We value craftsmanship, speed, and ownership. If you’re passionate about creating high-precision components that directly fuel next-generation in space, you’ll fit right in.

We’re hiring a Senior CNC Programmer & Machinist with deep expertise in 3-axis CNC milling and 5-axis experience strongly preferred. This role requires mastery in CNC programming and machining, problem-solving at the machine and program level, and the ability to take ownership from design handoff through finished part.

While this is a senior-level role, we’re also open to exceptional candidates who can prove their skills and perform at this level.

Responsibilities

  • Program and operate CNC mills (3-axis mastery, 5-axis preferred) to support precision robotics manufacturing.

  • Create, edit, and optimize programs in Haas G-code, using Mastercam (preferred) or NX CAM (other CAM systems also acceptable).

  • Interpret engineering drawings, CAD/CAM models, and GD&T requirements to produce efficient machining strategies.

  • Perform set ups and operate CNC machines.

  • Maintain records of mark ups on prints, save programs, setup sheets, and tool lists.

  • Select and optimize tooling, adjusting speeds/feeds for efficiency and tool life.

  • Design and machine fixture tooling as required.

  • Work closely with engineering teams and provide feedback to improve manufacturability.

  • Take ownership of machine setup, troubleshooting, and optimization.

  • Mentor teammates and share best practices to raise the bar across the team.

  • Pitch in beyond machining when needed — including assisting with assembly of our product — to ensure team success.

  • Help with necessary maintenance, cleanliness, up-keep and repairs of machinery to the best of your ability.

Basic Qualifications

  • High school diploma or equivalent.

  • 5+ years of CNC programming and machining experience.

  • Deep mastery of 3-axis CNC milling, with exposure to 5-axis machining (preferred).

  • Proficiency in Haas control programming (G-code).

  • Experience with Mastercam (preferred) or NX CAM, though strong skills in other CAM platforms are acceptable.

Preferred Skills & Experience

  • 8+ years of CNC programming and machining experience.

  • Expertise in programming and operating multi-axis mill and lathe CNC machines.

  • Strong background in complex surfacing, contours, and tool/die style applications.

  • Experience optimizing processes for productivity, quality, and repeatability.

  • Familiarity with graphite electrode programming (a plus, but not required).

  • Experience mentoring others or leading shop projects.

Additional Requirements

  • Ability to lift up to 25 lbs. unassisted.

  • Frequent standing, bending, grasping, pulling, and other shop-floor activities required.

  • U.S. Person status required (citizen, permanent resident, refugee, or asylee) due to export control regulations.

Compensation & Benefits

  • Level 1: $30.00 – $38.00/hour

  • Level 2: $34.00 – $43.00/hour

  • Level 3 (Senior): $38.00 – $48.00/hour
    Actual level and pay determined based on skills, experience, and interview performance.

  • OVERTIME PAY can possibly be offered during peak build cycles.

At Starpath Robotics, base pay is just one part of your total rewards package. We also offer:

  • Generous benefits including health, dental, vision, and retirement plans.

  • Paid time off, holidays, and flexible policies to support balance.

  • Professional growth opportunities through training and development.

  • The chance to own high-impact work that directly shapes the future of robotics & space!

  • A collaborative, mission-driven culture where craftsmanship and innovation are celebrated.

EAR REQUIREMENTS:

  • To conform to U.S. Government export regulations, applicant must be a (i) U.S. citizen or national, (ii) U.S. lawful, permanent resident (aka green card holder), (iii) Refugee under 8 U.S.C. § 1157, or (iv) Asylee under 8 U.S.C. § 1158, or be eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State.
