- Process-oriented mindset with interest in optimizing digital workflows
- Strong written and visual communication skills
- Experience working cross-functionally with engineering and production teams
- 2–5 years of experience in additive production, CAD administration, or digital fabrication environments
- BS in Engineering, Industrial Design, or a related technical field — or equivalent experience
Responsibilities
- Prepare build files for production, including part orientation, slicing, and support structure generation
- Review part designs and ensure they are production-ready, flagging issues or risks
- Provide design support to the Thermal Engineering team: optimize parts for manufacturability and create clean, annotated production drawings
- Identify and implement efficiency improvements in CAD workflow and documentation processes: manage file structure, templates, version control
- Maintain a library of validated build strategies, parameters, and fixtures
- Contribute to build documentation, including setup notes and best practices
- Participate in build reviews and collaborate with Process, Applications, and Production teams
