CAD and Fabrication Specialist

This position sits at the intersection of design and manufacturing, where the specialist transforms initial sketches and project specifications into production-ready CAD models and oversees their physical realization through various digital fabrication methods. The role requires expertise in CAD software like SolidWorks combined with hands-on knowledge of CNC machining, 3D printing, and other fabrication techniques. The specialist will serve as the technical hub for fabrication projects, coordinating between design leads and fabrication technicians while managing equipment maintenance and workflow optimization. This opportunity suits experienced manufacturing professionals who enjoy both the technical aspects of digital design and the practical satisfaction of bringing ideas to life through skilled fabrication. The position demands leadership capability, as the specialist will guide junior technicians and help establish efficient production processes. Working in what Axon describes as a maker-space environment, this role appeals to someone who values autonomy, technical problem-solving, and making a tangible impact on physical projects for a mission-driven company.
