Ensuring Chart’s Success…

Cooler By Design” – Chart’s core business is centered around the design and fabrication of cryogenic equipment; so you can see where we get our tagline from, right? Well, yes and no – see, we think the products we design and build are pretty cool too. Also, we’re problem solvers. Customers don’t come to Chart with an equipment specification, they come to Chart with a challenge. That’s where you come in, because someone has to figure it out – all the way from conceptual design to installation and commissioning of equipment on-site. Chart’s mission is to provide full solutions across the Nexus of Clean™ – clean power, clean water, clean food, and clean industrials.

The diverse applications we service echo our commitment to sustainability – from providing full hydrogen solutions across the value chain, offering small and industrial scale carbon capture solutions to customers globally, creating water treatment systems responsible for treating 4.5 billion gallons of water per day in the U.S. and delivering clean water to over a billion people worldwide, providing equipment and solutions for mission critical space launches, decarbonizing the marine industry, and electrifying the mining space. Chart even contributes to the food and beverage industry by making some of your favorite carbonated beverages possible – If nitro coffee or nitro ice cream is your thing – well, that’s Chart technology too (and it’s also cool)!

CNC Programmers create the programs required to manufacture machined parts.

What Will You Do?

To accomplish this job successfully, an individual must be able to perform each essential function satisfactorily. Set up and operate numerical control program machines to fabricate parts by performing the following duties :

• Plan numerical control program to control contour path machining of metal parts on automatic machine tools.
• Analyze drawings, sketches, and design data of part to determine dimension and configuration of cuts.
• Determine reference points and direction of machine cutting paths.
• Compute angular and linear dimensions, radii, and curvatures, and outlines sequence of operations required to machine part.
• Prepare geometric layout on graph paper or using computer-assisted drafting software to show location of reference points and direction of cutting paths.
• Ability to write instruction sheets and cutter lists to guide setup and operation of machine.
• Ability to write programs of machine instructions in symbolic language to encode numerical control tape or direct numerical control database to regulate movement of machine along cutting path.
• Compare encoded tape or computer printout with original program sheet to assure accuracy of machine instructions.
• Revise program to eliminate instruction errors or omissions.
• Observe operation of machine on trial run to prove taped or programmed instructions.
• Regular attendance, ability to arrive at work punctually, ability to work on–site, ability to work overtime.
• Ability to work cooperatively with others, ability to deal respectfully with the public, customers, vendors, other employees, managers, and executive management.

• Prepares geometric layouts from graphic displays
• Recommends improvements or optimization that improves quality and / or efficiency of operations
• Accurately determines or calculates necessary dimensions, makes cutting tool selections, and identifies appropriate machine speeds and feed rates
• Determines and creates required reference points for machine cutting paths and the sequence of machine operations
• Interacts with machine operators and other personnel to identify and resolve programming issues
• Complies with applicable business processes and work procedures
• Adheres to safety guidelines and procedures; proactively identifies job hazards and collaborates with leadership to minimize hazards and ensure employee safety
• Regular attendance on-site at the workplace is required

Your Physical Work Environment Will Require…
