Job Description

About Us

Reframe Systems is on a mission to build net-zero carbon housing for all, at massive scale. To achieve our mission, we need to make net-zero carbon housing more affordable and we are re-imagining how housing is designed and built. Our modular building platform and highly-automated production system will drive down cost, delivery time, and embodied carbon for ADUs and multifamily housing. We are setting up our first software driven factory in the greater Boston area (Andover, MA), and have a roadmap to scale our presence nationally. We are disrupting assembly line manufacturing for housing production and are backed by leading VC firms in the industrial and construction space.

What We're Looking For

We are seeking a CNC Programmer and Operator to join our team and play a critical role in manufacturing precision components for modular housing. This role involves programming, setting up, and operating CNC machines to cut wood, drywall, and other materials used in home construction. The ideal candidate has experience in cabinet-making, millwork, or woodworking, and is skilled in CAD/CAM programming and CNC operations. This individual will also collaborate with designers and production staff to refine parts for production and ensure seamless integration into larger assemblies.

Responsibilities

  • Program CNC machines using CAD/CAM software (e.g., VCarve or similar) to cut components from materials such as plywood, engineered lumber, MDF, drywall, and composites.

  • Set up and calibrate CNC machines, including selecting tools, setting speeds and feeds, and performing tool changes.

  • Operate the CNC machine to produce high-quality, precision parts while ensuring adherence to design specifications.

  • Plan and execute material handling strategies to minimize waste and optimize cutting layouts.

  • Work with diverse materials and ensure proper storage, handling, and usage.

  • Perform routine maintenance and repairs on CNC machines to ensure optimal performance.

  • Diagnose and resolve mechanical or software issues, working with internal or external resources as needed.

  • Collaborate with designers and engineers to refine parts for production, ensuring designs are optimized for manufacturability.

  • Work with production staff to integrate CNC-cut parts into larger assemblies.

  • Conduct quality checks on finished parts to ensure they meet specifications and standards.

  • Adjust programs or setups as needed to resolve issues and maintain quality.

  • Adhere to all safety protocols and maintain a clean, organized workspace.

  • Follow best practices for CNC operations and contribute to a culture of continuous improvement.

Basic Qualifications

  • 3+ years of experience programming and operating CNC machines, ideally in woodworking, cabinetry, or millwork.

  • Familiarity with CAD/CAM software (e.g., VCarve, Fusion 360, or Mastercam).

  • Experience with a variety of materials, including plywood, MDF, drywall, and composites.

  • Proficiency in material optimization and layout strategies to minimize waste.

  • Strong mechanical aptitude and ability to troubleshoot CNC machine issues.

  • Experience performing maintenance and tool changes on CNC machines.

  • Excellent collaboration and communication skills to work with design and production teams.

  • Physical ability to lift up to 50 pounds, work standing, and perform manual tasks as needed.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Background in cabinet-making, millwork, or similar woodworking fields.

  • Familiarity with modular construction or home-building materials and techniques.

  • Experience working in a factory environment.

Working Conditions

  • Work in a factory environment with exposure to construction materials, tools, and equipment.

  • Physical tasks include standing, lifting, and repetitive movements.

  • Some overtime or weekend work may be required based on production schedules.

Why Join Us?

At Reframe Systems, you’ll be part of an innovative, mission-driven team transforming housing construction. Your work will directly contribute to delivering sustainable, net-zero modular housing at scale, addressing critical challenges in housing and climate. We value craftsmanship, teamwork, and your professional growth.
