Master Model & Fixtures Inc.
is seeking a motivated CAD Designer Trainee to join our team. This entry-level position is designed for someone with CAD education or basic 3D-modeling skills who wants to build a career in automotive fixture design and CNC programming. We specialize in prototype checking fixtures, CMM holding fixtures, weld fixtures, production check fixtures, and vacuum-form tooling for the automotive industry.
Responsibilities
·     Learn to design automotive checking fixtures, holding fixtures, weld fixtures, and related tooling.
·     Assist with creating complete and accurate build information for fixture builders.
·     Learn to develop CNC programs for machining fixture components.
·     Review customer CAD data, drawings, specifications, and design requirements with guidance.
·     Work directly with experienced designers, fixture builders, machinists, and inspection personnel.
·     Update designs based on customer requirements and shop feedback.
·     Follow projects from initial design through machining, assembly, and final inspection.
·     Maintain organized project files and revision control.
Qualifications
·     Professional CAD experience is not required; recent graduates and current CAD students are encouraged to apply.

·     Basic experience with NX, Fusion 360, CATIA, SolidWorks, AutoCAD, or similar 3D CAD software.
·     Interest in learning automotive fixture design, CNC programming, and manufacturing processes.
·     Basic ability to read engineering drawings; GD&T knowledge is a plus but not required.
·     Mechanical aptitude and willingness to spend time in a hands-on machine-shop environment.
·     Strong attention to detail, problem-solving ability, reliability, and communication skills.
·     Ability to accept feedback, learn from experienced employees, and work collaboratively with the shop.
Pay & Schedule
$19.00–$24.00 per hour, based on CAD education, software experience, manufacturing knowledge, and demonstrated ability. Compensation will be reviewed based on progress and performance after the introductory period.
·     Full-time day shift beginning at 6:00 a.m., Monday through Friday.
·     Shifts generally range from 8 to 10 hours, depending on workload.
·     Overtime may be available or required during busy periods; occasional Saturday work may be required.
·     Time-and-a-half for hours worked over 40; double time for approved Sunday work.
