An Entry Level Prototype Model Maker assists in creating physical models and prototypes of products, parts, or concepts, usually based on engineering drawings or 3D digital designs. They work with tools and materials such as plastics, metals, or wood to build and assemble prototypes that help designers and engineers test and refine their ideas. The role often involves measuring, cutting, shaping, and finishing components, and may also include operating basic machinery or 3D printers. This position is ideal for those interested in hands-on work and learning more about product development and manufacturing processes.
