Computer-Aided Engineering Technician
Computer-Aided Engineering Technicians are responsible for using computer-aided design (CAD) software to create and modify 3D models of products. These models are used by engineers to design, analyze, and manufacture products. Computer-Aided Engineering Technicians may also be responsible for creating and modifying 2D drawings, and for generating technical documentation.
Skills and Knowledge
Computer-Aided Engineering Technicians typically need a strong understanding of CAD software, as well as a good understanding of engineering principles. They also need to be able to work independently and as part of a team, and to communicate effectively with engineers and other technical staff.
