I am a PCDMIS programmer, just for curiosity, is this a good career to continue with?

I work for a small size company as an inspector and having been programming CMM with PC-DMIS 2016 for about 1 year. The pay is not that good (under $20 per hr in Bay Area, CA) probably because I dont have too much experiences (i can make a program for inspecting complex parts tho). Is PC-DMIS programmer in high demand, especially in CA and does it pay well? Is this a good career to continue with?

  • Programming is the bomb, so satisfying. You grow to love keeping the tools clean and everything calibrated, and there is something about squaring up a part the right way to get in those hard to reach holes. Also I love a job I can have my headphones in all day. not to mention cruising this forum is an example of the type of freedom you get on the job.
