Job Description

Role: CAM Senior NX TDM Vericut

Experience: 9 to 12 years

Job Overview

We are looking for an experienced CAM Expert with deep hands-on expertise in Siemens NX CAM, TDM Systems (Tool Data Management), and Vericut to support and further develop CAM and tool management solutions in a production-oriented industrial environment. The role acts as a technical authority between manufacturing, engineering, and IT, ensuring stable operations, optimized CAM processes, and standardized tool data across systems and sites.

Key Responsibilities

• Act as CAM Application Expert for Siemens NX CAM, TDM Systems, and Vericut.

• Analyze, optimize, and troubleshoot toolpaths, postprocessors, simulations, and tool libraries.

• Lead and execute CAM related projects, including implementations, upgrades, and process harmonization initiatives.

• Collaborate closely with manufacturing, process engineering, tool management, IT, and machine shops.

• Provide 2nd and 3rd level application support in production related environments.

• Ensure stable integrations between CAM, TDM, CNC machines, MES, and PLM systems.

• Define, maintain, and enforce CAM standards, templates, tool catalogs, and best practices.

• Coordinate and manage external partners and vendors (e.g., Siemens, TDM Systems CGTech).

• Create technical documentation, work instructions, and conduct user trainings.

Required Skills

• Expert Level: 9-12 years of professional experience in CAM related roles within manufacturing environments.

• Expert level knowledge of Siemens NX CAM, TDM Systems (Tool Data Management), and Vericut.

• Strong ability to analyze, optimize, and troubleshoot toolpaths, postprocessor behavior, simulations, and tool libraries.

• TDM Systems administration: integration, installation, configuration, database structures, tool lifecycle management, tool catalogs, 3D tool models, classification standards, and naming conventions.

• Experience integrating TDM with NX CAM, CNC machines, and MES/PLM environments.

• Solid understanding of machining technologies: milling, turning, multi-axis machining, and manufacturing constraints.

• Ability to translate manufacturing requirements into CAM configurations and tool data structures.

• Strong experience delivering 2nd and 3rd level application support, including structured root cause analysis.

• Familiarity with ticketing systems and incident/problem management processes.

• Proven experience managing CAM related projects, including stakeholder management and milestone planning.

• Knowledge of PLM/ERP integrations (e.g., Teamcenter, SAP) related to CAM and tool data.

• Experience with SQL databases for analysis and troubleshooting.

• Excellent communication, coordination, and problem-solving skills, particularly at the interface of IT and manufacturing.

Must Have

• Expert knowledge of TDM Macro Language scripting and customization (mandatory requirement).

• Strong analytical mindset and ownership for CAM applications and processes.

Nice to Have

• Experience with automation and scripting (e.g., NX Open, VB, Python).

• Automation of CAM templates, tool data handling, or simulation workflows.

• Experience with global CAM standardization or harmonization initiatives.

Documentation & Collaboration

• Strong ability to create process descriptions, work instructions, and user guides.

• Experience conducting user trainings and onboarding for CAM and TDM tools.

• Comfortable working in international and cross-functional teams spanning IT, engineering, and production.
