Key Responsibilities
  • Design and develop sheet metal parts, assemblies, and fixtures using SolidWorks and other CAD tools.
  • Create detailed fabrication drawings, flat patterns, and DXF files for laser cutting, punching, and CNC equipment.
  • Program and optimize fabrication equipment (laser cutters, press brakes, machining centers, etc.).
  • Work with production teams to develop and improve fabrication processes for efficiency, quality, and cost reduction.
  • Translate customer drawings and specifications into manufacturable designs and production-ready documentation.
  • Provide hands-on support in the shop for prototyping, troubleshooting, and process validation.
  • Collaborate with quality engineers to define tolerances, inspection methods, and quality standards.
  • Participate in new product introductions, from prototype through full production.
  • Research and recommend new technologies, tools, and methods to improve fabrication capabilities.
Qualifications
  • Associate’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or related field (or equivalent work experience).
  • 2–5 years of experience in sheet metal fabrication or related manufacturing environment.
  • Proficiency in SolidWorks and 3D CAD modeling; experience with AutoCAD or similar software a plus (Pro E, Inventor, etc.)
  • Experience with CAM programming for CNC equipment (laser, punch, press brake, or machining).
  • Strong understanding of sheet metal processes, tolerances, and fabrication methods.
  • Hands-on experience with fabrication equipment and shop practices preferred.
  • Familiarity with ERP/MRP systems for manufacturing documentation.
  • Excellent problem-solving, communication, and teamwork skills.
  • Knowledge of lean manufacturing and continuous improvement practices is an advantage.
Working Conditions
  • Combination of office and shop floor environment.
  • Frequent interaction with production teams and fabrication equipment.
  • May require wearing PPE and participating in hands-on prototyping or troubleshooting.
