What this job asks for AI summary
This role centers on configuring and programming Cabinet Vision software to drive a custom cabinetry manufacturer's CNC equipment — writing UCS scripts, building S2M post-processors for machines from brands like Biesse and Homag, and managing the underlying SQL Server database. The position also involves converting architectural plans into manufacturable 3D cabinet models and supporting production teams through troubleshooting and training. It suits someone with direct Cabinet Vision or comparable CAD/CAM programming experience in a manufacturing setting.

Why we read it this way (7)
This role is highly specialized in Cabinet Vision CAD/CAM software for cabinet manufacturing — it does not map cleanly to a standard SOC code. 15-1299 (Computer Occupations, All Other) is the best fit; 15-1243 (Database Architects) is a secondary candidate given the SQL Server database management and migration duties.
The location is not explicitly stated in the posting. Tharp Custom Cabinetry is headquartered in the Fort Collins, CO area; the CBSA has been inferred from the company's known location.
Experience requirement is stated as a minimum of 6 months as a Cabinet Vision Programmer/Application Engineer (1 year preferred), OR 2 years in a similar CAD/CAM role. The lower bound of 6 months was used for the overall years minimum, rounded to 1 year as the practical minimum for the role-level requirement.
Cabinet Vision is listed as the primary required tool, with Microvellum explicitly named as a directly transferable alternative in the Requirements section.
CNC post-processor configuration covers Biesse, SCM, and Stiles/Homag brands as mentioned in the posting — these are machine brands rather than separate software skills.
Compensation is described only as 'competitive wages' with no figures provided.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): CNC post-processor configuration.
