Job Overview
We are seeking a skilled and detail-oriented Model Maker Technician to join our hardware engineering team. In this hands-on prototyping role, you will bring innovative autonomous mobility solutions to life by building high-quality prototypes, functional proof-of-concepts, and first-article assemblies.
Working closely with cross-functional engineers and designers in a fast-paced development environment, you will leverage your expertise in CNC setup, machining, welding, and advanced fabrication to produce precision components from CAD models and engineering drawings.
Key Responsibilities
CNC Setup & Machining: Set up, calibrate, operate, and maintain 3-axis and multi-axis CNC machines (mills, lathes) to produce precision prototype components according to tight tolerances and specifications.
Hands-On Fabrication: Perform metalworking operations, including milling, turning, drilling, shearing, bending, and basic welding to fabricate custom prototype parts.
Advanced Materials & Additive Manufacturing: Work with composites, plastics, and 3D printing (additive manufacturing) platforms to support diverse hardware prototyping needs.
Finishing & Craftsmanship: Utilize hand tools and precision finishing equipment to deburr, polish, fit, and refine parts to ensure high aesthetic and functional craftsmanship.
Quality & Inspection: Inspect finished components against blueprints, CAD models, and GD&T specifications using precision measurement tools (calipers, micrometers, height gauges, CMM).
Design Collaboration & DFM: Partner with engineers and designers to review early-stage designs, troubleshoot fabrication challenges, and provide feedback on Design for Manufacturability (DFM).
Shop Safety & Maintenance: Maintain a clean, organized, and safe shop environment, adhering to safety protocols for equipment operation, chemical handling, and waste management.
Qualifications & Requirements
Minimum Requirements:
Experience: 2+ years of experience as a Model Maker, Fabricator, Machinist, or CNC Operator in a rapid prototyping, R&D, or fast-paced manufacturing environment.
Technical Blueprint Reading: Proficiency in reading and interpreting complex engineering drawings, blueprints, and CAD models (SolidWorks, CATIA, etc.).
Tooling & Precision Measurement: Demonstrated skill with manual/CNC machine tools, precision measuring instruments, and basic knowledge of Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing (GD&T) principles.
Problem-Solving & Communication: Strong mechanical problem-solving mindset with the ability to troubleshoot fabrication issues and communicate project updates or technical risks effectively.
Safety Adherence: Proven commitment to shop safety rules, PPE compliance, and safe material handling.
Preferred Qualifications:
Education: Associate's Degree, Technical Certification, or Bachelor's Degree in Industrial Design, Mechanical Engineering, or a related trade field.
Software & Documentation: Experience using project tracking and documentation tools such as Jira, Confluence, or digital shop management systems.
Multi-Disciplinary Fabrication: Experience combining metals, composites, sheet metal, and 3D-printed elements into complex electro-mechanical assemblies.
