What You'll Do Create and maintain 2D flat patterns and 3D product models using AutoCAD and CAD software. Design custom and engineered-to-order products to meet unique customer requirements. Optimize layouts and nesting to maximize material utilization and minimize waste. Prepare production-ready CAD files for cutting, sewing, fabrication, and assembly. Support prototype development, testing, product improvements, and engineering changes. Collaborate with Customer Service, Engineering, Manufacturing, and Operations teams. Troubleshoot manufacturing and quality issues while driving continuous improvement initiatives. Maintain engineering documentation, bills of materials, and design standards. What We're Looking For Associate's or Bachelor's degree in a technical field or equivalent experience. 2+ years of experience creating engineering drawings and technical documentation. Strong proficiency in AutoCAD and 3D CAD modeling. Exceptional spatial reasoning skills and the ability to visualize 3D products from 2D patterns.
