Ortigas, Philippines Expo Centric Full time $60,000 - $80,000 per year

Are you a hands-on CNC Programmer who thrives on turning production drawings into precisely cut wood and steel components? We're looking for a detail-focused, problem-solving technician who can own the programming process from drawing interpretation to machine setup — all within the fast-moving world of custom exhibition stand fabrication.

This role is perfect for someone who thrives on one-off builds, works well with shop drawings, and brings programming rigour to a creative, design-driven environment. At Expo Centric, every detail matters — and precision starts with you.

What You'll Do

  • Translate production drawings into CNC-ready programs for MDF, ply, and light-gauge steel components
  • Set up CNC routers and cutting equipment, selecting tools, speeds, and feeds based on material and job requirements
  • Conduct test runs and troubleshooting to ensure clean, accurate cutting and alignment with detailing intent
  • Collaborate with detailing, design, and fabrication teams to clarify requirements and support job readiness
  • Maintain clear documentation and continuously improve programming efficiency, nesting logic, and repeatability
  • Support operators on setup, safety, and program understanding to ensure successful handoff

What You Bring

  • 3+ years' experience in CNC programming (G-code) and machine setup
  • Comfortable working from shop/production drawings — not reliant on engineering CAD files
  • Experience with CAM software (e.g. Fusion 360, Vectric, EnRoute) and file nesting for short-run jobs
  • Confident working with wood and steel; understands tooling selection and material constraints
  • Proactive, methodical, and supportive team player across departments

  • Be part of a close-knit production team where your programming drives real-time fabrication
