CAD Technician – Rhino 3D (Production / CNC / Composites)

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.
