About the role
We are looking for a CAD Technician with strong experience in Rhino 3D to support production work for fiberglass and composite parts, primarily related to marine / boat manufacturing.
This is a hands-on, production-oriented role. The focus is accuracy, organization, and consistency, not high-level design, branding, or conceptual work. You will work with existing 3D geometry and convert it into clean, accurate 2D flat patterns and CNC-ready files for manufacturing.
Responsibilities
  • Work daily in Rhinoceros 3D to manipulate and organize production models.
  • Convert 3D surfaces into accurate 2D flat patterns using workflows such as Unroll, Smash, Rebuild, and surface cleanup.
  • Clean, join, simplify, and prepare geometry for manufacturing use.
  • Apply offsets, overlaps, splits, and seams based on provided production standards.
  • Organize parts using layers, naming conventions, numbering systems, and color standards.
  • Create nested CNC cut files for roll goods or sheet materials.
  • Prepare layout and schematic drawings (PDF) showing part placement and basic assembly guidance.
  • Follow structured, repeatable workflows with minimal back-and-forth after training.
Required Skills
  • Strong proficiency in Rhinoceros 3D (daily, professional use).
  • Solid understanding of:
1. Surface modeling and NURBS geometry.
2. Converting 3D surfaces into 2D flat patterns.
3. 2D drafting and layout for manufacturing.
  • High attention to detail and file cleanliness.
  • Ability to follow exact standards and instructions.
  • Comfortable working independently in a task-based workflow.
  • Functional English for training, written instructions, and basic communication.
Nice to have (not required)
Experience with:
  • Fiberglass, composites, or marine / boat building.
  • CNC cutting, nesting, or fabrication file preparation.
  • Roll goods and sheet goods material layouts.
  • Familiarity with digital fabrication or production environments.
Work style
  • Task-based production work.
  • Files and instructions are provided; execution is independent.
  • Accuracy is more important than speed (speed comes with repetition).
  • After initial training, work is largely autonomous.
What you will deliver
  • Each project typically includes:
1. CNC-ready cut files (properly nested and layered).
2. Layout / schematic PDFs for production reference.
Location & contract
  • Remote.
  • Stable, ongoing production work.
  • Training provided with examples, reference files, and clear standards.
