Mastercam Post Processors

Postability is a bespoke software development firm focused on the development of NC post processors for Mastercam CAD/CAM Systems, which are used in the programming of computer-controlled machine tools.

Careers

The Opportunity

At Postability, our Global Manufacturing clients are the focus of everything we do, with hundreds of clients relying on our post processors to program their computer-controlled machine tools daily. We believe in the value of empowering our CAD/CAM Post Processor Developers with the resources to develop the important link between CAM System and CNC machine tools, which is why we need you. 

Postability is seeking a self-motivated CAD/CAM Post Processor Developer, who is obsessed with delivering value, is forward-thinking, and excited to see the successful implementation of the post processors they deliver. They will take the initiative to understand machine tool kinematics for CNC mills, routers, and advance turning centres; combining this knowledge with CNC control syntax to implement software solutions for our clients.   

So, what is a Post Processor?

A post processor is a piece of software that translates tool path data, which is stored in a generic format within the CAM software, to a text file that is readable by the specific CNC machine tool controller.  The format and syntax of the text file varies based on the physical machine tool configuration as well as the controller model.  Printer drivers are an everyday equivalent to post processors; Windows uses a printer driver to convert software output to something that can drive the specific make and model of printer.
