With a strong focus on quality and customer service, they continue to lead the market by combining innovation with operational excellence.
The Role

* Convert technical drawings into precise cutting programs.
* Collaborate closely with production teams to test and verify finished products.
* Ensure designs meet manufacturing, performance, and quality standards.
* Manage version control and maintain design accuracy.
* Work with SolidWorks, AlfaCAM, or similar CAD/CAM software.
* Understand material properties and manufacturing processes.
About You
* Proven experience as a CAD Engineer within a manufacturing environment.
* Skilled in SolidWorks, AlfaCAM, or equivalent CAD/CAM software.
* Knowledge of CNC cutting and machining processes.
* Practical, hands-on approach with willingness to test and refine designs.
* Excellent attention to detail and problem-solving ability.
* Strong communication and teamwork skills
