A day in the life — Appleton, WI

Step into a role where ideas take shape. As our CAD Design Technologist, your morning might begin with a quick huddle alongside engineers and project managers. By mid-morning, you’re translating concepts into accurate 2D schematics and 3D models.

  • Fluency with CAD platforms such as AutoCAD and SolidWorks.
  • Solid grounding in engineering and architectural fundamentals.
  • Meticulous attention to detail with the ability to meet tight deadlines.
