Siemens NX Postprocessor & Machine Simulation Developer

At Swoosh Technologies, the Siemens NX Postprocessor and Machine Simulation Developer role focuses on designing, implementing, and maintaining custom NX postprocessors and NX MTS simulation kits. The position aims to deliver precise G-code and turnkey machine programs for manufacturing customers, with an emphasis on accuracy, safety, and reliable performance.

Responsibilities

• Develop, configure, and tailor Siemens NX postprocessors using Post Configurator, Post Builder, Post Hub, and TCL.
• Implement advanced multi-axis machining logic for 3-, 4-, and 5-axis milling, turning, and mill-turn operations.
• Build support for controller-specific functions including TRAORI, Cycle800, Tilted Work Planes, TCP, probing cycles, and user-defined machines.
• Create and maintain custom UDEs, macros, and event-driven logic to enhance postprocessing workflows.
• Debug and validate G-code output for Siemens 840D, Fanuc, Heidenhain, Mazak, OSP, and other major CNC controllers.
• Design and assemble complete Siemens NX MTS simulation kits with kinematic chains, channels, tool carriers, and machine models.
• Integrate machine CAD/JT assemblies into NX simulation to reflect real-world configurations.
• Configure G-code driven simulation, collision sets, limits, and real controller cycle behavior.
• Validate machine movements and kinematics to ensure accuracy and safety in virtual environments.

Requirements

• 3+ years developing Siemens NX postprocessors or equivalent CNC post platforms.
• Strong understanding of Siemens NX CAM machining operations and tool path methods.
• Advanced knowledge of CNC controllers such as Siemens 840D SL, Fanuc, Heidenhain, Okuma, and Mazak.
• Proficiency in TCL, scripting logic, and event-based post development.
• Solid understanding of machine tool kinematics, including rotary axes, pivot points, and TCP/RTCP.
• Experience building Siemens NX Integrated Simulation & Verification (ISV/MTS) kits.
• Strong communication and presentation skills.
• Self-motivated with minimal direction required.
• Some travel required.
