Overview & Responsibilities
Position Overview
This is a job for someone who sees the big picture—and the smallest detail. Formally titled as a CAD/CAM Technician, you'll be at the center of our Service Parts manufacturing automation efforts. You'll build and maintain intelligent 3D part libraries, create machining programs, and help design parts kits that directly impact customer satisfaction. If you love solving problems, working with advanced software, and finding the most efficient way to make something, this role puts you in the driver's seat.
Job Responsibilities
CNC Support
Coordinate with manufacturing engineers to create machining program templates for each part family using GibbsCAM software
Use Creo CAD to create family table–based part models for all components manufactured by Service Parts
Build and maintain a 3D library of CNC machine tables, fixture geometries, and tooling
Ensure part family programs can be flexibly posted to various machines within the SVP fleet based on capacity and availability
Use CGTech Vericut for NC file validation before manufacturing release
Apply geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T) during the programming process
Determine optimal tooling and cutting parameters based on material and setup
Parts Kit Design & Coordination
Provide technical support for Elliott Parts Kits
Design parts kit layouts to meet internal and external customer needs—supporting growth, quality, and productivity
Review drawings for accuracy; obtain weights and dimensions of spare parts
Correct drawings as needed
Determine how each part will be packaged safely and cost-effectively for long-term storage and safe handling
Group and package parts into kits to ensure viability for outages
Create inspection matrices and engineering sketches for kit box orders
Coordinate with kit box vendors to approve layouts and ensure accuracy
Work with Project Planners and Engineering on required drawing updates
General Manufacturing Support
Create and maintain BOMs in Windchill for parts and products manufactured in-house by Service Parts (essential for MRP planning and Product Lifecycle Management)
Produce "conversion drawings" to give manufacturing usable documentation—including foreign language to English, metric to imperial, and manufacturing drawings for non-Elliott parts
Read and interpret blueprints, sketches, drawings, routing instructions, manuals, and specifications
You'll coordinate closely with manufacturing engineering to determine the "best method" for manufacturing each part type—using available machinery and tools, planning contour-path machining, and working with integrated software systems. You'll also partner with the Customer Strategy team to determine optimal parts kit layouts that meet customer needs and expectations.
