3D Solid Modeler / CAD Engineer (Automotive Coachbuilding)
Company: SaltWorks MFG
Location: Sarasota, FL
Job Type: Full-Time
Location: Sarasota, FL
Job Type: Full-Time
This is not a drafting position.
If your experience is limited to making drawings from someone else’s ideas, this is not the role.
We are looking for a true problem solver—someone who understands how parts are made, how systems work together, and how to turn complex ideas into real, manufacturable components.
What We Do
SaltWorks builds high-end, one-off custom vehicles. Every part, every system, every interface is intentional. We don’t follow templates—we create them.
What You’ll Be Responsible For
- Design and model complex, one-off components from concept to production
- Develop manufacturable solutions for real-world problems (not theoretical CAD)
- Work directly with fabrication, machining, and assembly teams
- Create parts that go from screen → machine → vehicle with minimal iteration
- Insure designs based on fit, function, and performance
What We’re Looking For
- Strong experience in 3D CAD modeling (Fusion 360 preferred)
- Deep understanding of:
- Machining processes (CNC, billet, sheet forming, etc.)
- Material behavior and tolerances
- Assembly relationships and real-world constraints
- Ability to think through a part before modeling it
- Speed and efficiency without sacrificing accuracy
- Self-driven mindset—always learning, always improving
This Role Requires
- Problem-solving under pressure
- High attention to detail
- Ownership of your work from start to finish
- The ability to adapt quickly in a fast-moving environment
What We Value
- Passion for the automotive/custom fabrication industry
- Pride in craftsmanship—even in digital work
- People who invest in themselves and stay on top of their game
- Team players who elevate those around them
What You Won’t Find Here
- Repetitive production modeling
- Slow corporate processes
- Hand-holding or micromanagement
What You’ll Get
- Work on some of the highest-end custom builds in the industry
- Direct collaboration with elite fabricators, machinists, and builders
- A fast-paced environment where your work matters immediately
- Competitive compensation based on skill and output

Compensation: $40.00 - $55.00 per hour
