The Solidworks Draftsman / CNC Programmer is responsible for converting engineering concepts, existing vehicle components, and production requirements into accurate, production ready manufacturing documentation. This role focuses primarily on creating and maintaining Solid Works models, detailed manufacturing drawings, and CNC ready files used to fabricate custom vehicle components and assemblies.

Working closely with Production and Quality Control, the successful candidate will document new and existing designs, support fabrication processes, and ensure drawings accurately reflect production methods and as built conditions. This position requires a strong understanding of sheet metal fabrication, CNC manufacturing, welding, and production processes, along with the ability to translate physical parts and assemblies into precise CAD models.

This is a hybrid office and shop floor role requiring both engineering and hands on involvement. Responsibilities include supporting prototype development, approving vehicle layouts and fabricated assemblies, validating production quality, and continuously improving documentation to ensure efficient, repeatable manufacturing.

• Convert 3D assemblies into fully dimensioned 2D manufacturing drawings.
• Document existing parts, assemblies, and physical templates into production ready prints
• Generate flat patterns, bend allowances, and forming details for sheet metal
• Create CNC ready profiles for metal, wood and composite components (walls, panels, interior structures)
• Accurately measure and model complex curves, radiuses, and irregular geometries from real-world parts
• Break down assemblies into individual parts and subassemblies
• Revise drawings based on shop feedback and as built conditions

• Manage files in Solid Works PDM (file structure, revisions, ECOs)
• Maintain organized, production ready documentation

• Support CNC programming (router and plasma table)
• Prepare files for cutting, nesting, and material optimization
• Ensure designs are manufacturable across both metal and wood processes

• Layout and approve body cuts on vehicles
• Review and approve welded structures and subassemblies
• Verify CNC-cut and fabricated parts match drawings and tolerances
  
  Perform final QC checks (fit, finish, function) li>

• Working knowledge of sheet metal design and manufacturing processes.
• Experience preparing CNC ready profiles or manufacturing files.
• Strong attention to detail and ability to maintain accurate engineering documentation.
• Ability to work effectively with engineering, production, and fabrication teams.

The ideal candidate combines strong CAD skills with practical manufacturing experience and understands how designs are built on the shop floor.

• Experience with Solid Works PDM, revision control,…
