About this Role:

Do you enjoy seeing a project come to life from concept to completion? Are you passionate about craftsmanship, problem-solving, and creating exceptional custom cabinetry? We're looking for a Millwork Engineer/CNC Programmer who takes pride in their work and wants to be part of a team that builds high-end custom cabinetry, millwork, and built-ins for residential projects.

This is more than a drafting position. You'll play a key role in transforming design concepts into detailed shop drawings, production-ready plans, and finished products that homeowners will enjoy for years to come. You'll work closely with designers, production staff, and installers while utilizing industry-leading software and technology to bring unique projects to life.

What You'll Do

• Create detailed shop drawings, engineering documents, and CNC-ready programs using AutoCAD and Microvellum.
• Collaborate with designers, project managers, and production staff to develop custom cabinetry and millwork solutions.
• Translate architectural plans and design concepts into accurate build documents.
• Produce revisions and updates throughout the project lifecycle.
• Perform quality control reviews to ensure accuracy and manufacturability.
• Support production teams with technical information and problem-solving.
• Conduct field measurements and site visits.
• Participate in framing walkthroughs.
• Measure and order trim materials.
• Assist with installation coordination and support.
• Perform quality control inspections on both designs and completed projects.

What We're Looking For

• 3–5 years of experience creating cabinetry or millwork shop drawings and construction documents.
• Experience with AutoCAD, Microvellum, or similar cabinet engineering software.
• Ability to read and interpret architectural plans, specifications, and design documents.
• Understanding of cabinetry construction methods, materials, and manufacturing processes.
• Familiarity with AWI standards.
• Knowledge of CNC, nested-based manufacturing, and panel processing equipment.
• General construction experience is a plus.
• Experience applying lean manufacturing principles and process improvement strategies.

In addition to working within our strong employee focused culture, you will get:

• Competitive compensation
• Company profit sharing
• Medical insurance
• Dental Insurance
• Vision Insurance
• Employee assistance program
• 401k with a company match
• Enjoy Employee events throughout the year (picnics, sledding, holiday dinner, etc.)
• Paid time off
• 7 Paid Holidays

If you like a company that's big enough to provide stability yet small enough where you can have autonomy within your work and move fast, Engelsma Homes is the place for you. Apply today!
