About the role

We're building a high-quality evaluation dataset for CNC manufacturing and are looking for experienced CAM programmers to author grading rubrics for Fusion 360 CAM programs. You'll create text-only, objective, verifiable rubrics that determine whether a given CAM solution would be approved, or rejected, by an expert machinist for a production run, and provide the reasoning behind each criterion. You may also review existing CAM programs and explain why they pass or fail.

What you'll do

• Author 10-criterion rubrics for grading Fusion 360 CAM programs across provided CAD models and machining context (stock, machine, tooling).
• Write clear verification rationale for each criterion.
• Review sample CAM solutions and explain pass/fail outcomes.

Minimum requirements

• Hands-on Fusion 360 CAM experience, with access to a Fusion 360 license.
• Ability to program 4- and/or 5-axis CNC toolpaths.
• 5+ years of CAM programming experience.
• Strong production judgment, able to tell what would and wouldn't run safely on a real machine.
• Written English fluency (all deliverables are text-based).

Preferred

• CAM instructor or teaching experience.
