Fabrication Designer (Rhino + CNC, Build Focused)

Murmuration Inc
Newburgh, NY Full Time
POSTED ON 3/24/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 5/23/2026

About Us:

Our work combines 3D modeling, CNC/CAM, fabrication, and real-world problem solving. Everything we design gets built - this is a hands-on shop, not a purely digital role.

***Applicants must include a portfolio showing both design and real-world builds.***

The Role:

We’re looking for a technical designer / fabricator hybrid who can take a concept and turn it into something buildable.

You’ll help define how projects get built - including materials, structure, and fabrication approach, not just execute drawings.

This is not an entry-level role and not for purely digital designers.

Project timelines are typically 2-4 week build times.

What You’ll Do:

  • 3D modeling in Rhino with real-world constraints
  • Break designs into CNC-ready files, cut lists, and assemblies
  • Produce clear, efficient shop drawings
  • Work hands-on with wood, metal, plastics, and mixed materials
  • Assist with fabrication, assembly, and installs
  • Collaborate to solve real-world build challenges

Requirements:

You should have most of the following:

  • Hands-on shop experience (wood, metal, scenic, or fabrication)
  • Strong material knowledge (plywood, framing, plastics, metals, etc.)
  • 3D modeling in Rhino or similar CAD used for real-world builds
  • Experience preparing files for CNC / laser / plasma
  • Ability to think through how something actually gets built
  • Comfortable moving between computer and shop floor

Not a Fit If You Are:

  • A render-focused or purely digital 3D artist
  • Entry-level with no real build experience
  • Lacking hands-on fabrication background

Bonus Skills:

  • CNC router operation
  • Welding / metal fabrication
  • Scenic / installation experience

Pay: $25.00 - $35.00 per hour

Work Location: In person

Salary : $25 - $35
