Millwork Engineer

Millwork Engineer / CNC Programmer Giffin Interior & Fixture, Inc. – Pittsburgh, PA On-site (Pittsburgh) with occasional remote flexibility Giffin Interior is a nationally recognized architectural millwork manufacturer based just south of Pittsburgh. We build high-end commercial interiors and custom projects, and we're looking for a Millwork Engineer / CNC Programmer to join our Pre-Production team. This role blends engineering, machining logic, and real-world buildability to support our shop, production efficiency, and overall project success. As an INNERGY powered company, our estimating, project management, drafting, purchasing, engineering, production, and install workflows are fully connected, supporting accuracy, speed, and consistent information from estimate to install. What You'll Do Translate approved shop drawings into accurate engineering models and CNC-ready machining data. Produce clean, consistent programming for nested-based routers, 5-axis equipment (Stiles / Homag), and our panel saw. Ensure buildability, AWI compliance, and alignment with Giffin's standard construction methods. Identify design conflicts early and collaborate closely with Drafting, Engineering, Production, Project Management, and Purchasing. Prepare complete Work Order packages including machining details, hardware notes, and cut-related information. Support the shop with troubleshooting, clarifications, and technical adjustments as needed. Contribute to ongoing efforts to improve quality, throughput, and machine efficiency. What We're Looking For Experience in architectural millwork, casework, store fixtures, or other custom / engineer-to-order fabrication. Proficiency with Microvellum (or other library-based engineering systems), plus strong AutoCAD skills. CNC programming background; experience with Homag/WoodWOP is a plus. Solid understanding of commercial AWI standards and typical millwork construction methods. Strong ability to read drawings and translate concepts into accurate build instructions. Organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable managing multiple active projects. A team-player mindset and a drive for quality, accuracy, and continuous improvement. We will also consider experienced fabricators/carpenters who have strong real-world AutoCAD skills (not just introductory training) and want to grow into engineering/CNC programming. Candidates from both union and non-union backgrounds are welcome—skill and capability matter most. What We Offer Above-industry-average compensation based on experience and capability. Full benefits package (info available upon request) and regularly available overtime. Standard schedule: 6:00 AM – 2:30 PM, Monday–Friday (OT available). Modern equipment and tooling—including CNC automation, StoreTeq material handling, 5-axis capability, panel saw optimization, and a growing engineering/technology stack. A strong culture built around EOS (Entrepreneurial Operating System)—clear accountability, stable processes, healthy team dynamics, and companywide transparency. A family-owned company with 40+ years of stability, investing heavily back into people, technology, and capability. The chance to work on unique, high-profile commercial projects that rarely repeat.
