  • A profound enthusiasm for the process of creation and fabrication (e.g., artistic pursuits, mechanical tinkering, crafts).
  • Excellent written and verbal communication capabilities, characterized by clarity and conciseness as a default standard.

Preferred Qualifications:
  • Prior digital fabrication experience within a prototyping environment, specifically involving CNC machining.
  • Attainment of a Bachelor's or Associate's degree.
  • Direct, hands-on experience with CNC machining equipment, whether hobby- or commercial-grade.
  • Experience utilizing CAD/CAM software such as Fusion 360, SolidWorks, or Mastercam.

Must-Have Skills:
  • Digital Design Expertise: Proficiency in a range of digital design tools, including CAD/CAM software such as Fusion 360, with the ability to adapt to new systems and efficiently program parts using templated CAM programs.
  • Client-Focused Communication: Excellent interpersonal and communication skills, with experience working directly with clients to understand their needs, provide tailored solutions, and deliver high-quality results in a fast-paced production environment.
  • Hands-on Maker Mindset: A passion for hands-on problem-solving and making things, with a background in activities such as art, tinkering, crafts, or other related pursuits that demonstrate creativity, resourcefulness, and a willingness to experiment and learn.

Nice-to-Have Skills:
  • CNC Machining Experience: Hands-on experience with CNC machining equipment, either hobby- or commercial-grade, with a focus on prototyping environments.
