- Understanding of additive manufacturing fundamentals
- CAD experience (NX, SolidWorks, Creo, or similar)
- Strong attention to detail
- Good communication and organisational skills
- Willingness to learn and adapt in a technically challenging environment
- Ability to take feedback constructively and improve quickly
Preferred
- Experience with LPBF metal additive manufacturing
- Understanding of DfAM principles
- Familiarity with build preparation software
