Principle Duties & Responsibilities
This position is designed to allow a CAD designer apprentice to understand all aspects of tooling for the customer. Learning tool designs, process engineering, production of product, technical support and product testing for custom tooling solutions for sheet metal fabrication. This would require the apprentice to work in production, work in design, test tools, and see more of the business throughout TRUMPF on a rotational standard.
Position requirements include a commitment to learning and growing knowledge for CAD designing and tooling design. Apprentice must want to become an industry expert and a desire to learn and make an impact. Technical training in CAD (preferably HP ME10, Solidworks) is a plus but schooling should address this as well. Good communication skills are essential.
Technical experience in a manufacturing environment is desired but not required.
