The Role
We are seeking a CAD/CAM Designer to support the design and manufacturing of critical engine components and CNC-machined parts. This role works closely with engine builders, machinists, and R&D to take parts from concept → design → CNC → engine → racetrack. You’ll design parts, create CAM toolpaths, support CNC machining, and help continuously improve performance, quality, and manufacturability.
What You’ll Do Design and CAD:
Design and modify performance engine components including cylinder heads, blocks, intake components, valvetrain parts, fixtures, and custom tooling
Create 3D models and 2D drawings for manufacturing and inspection
Improve existing designs for performance, durability, weight, and manufacturability
Support reverse engineering using measurements or 3D scans
CAM & Manufacturing:
Create and optimize CNC toolpaths for 3-axis and 5-axis machining (if applicable), as well as milling, drilling, surfacing, and porting operations
Optimize programs for cycle time, surface finish, and tool life
Work directly with machinists to prove out programs and improve processes
Design and program fixtures and workholding
Partner with engine builders, machinists, and R&D
Support prototype and development programs
Drive continuous improvement in machining and design workflows
What We’re Looking For Required:
3+ years of experience in CAD/CAM in a precision machining or performance automotive environment
Strong experience with tools such as
SolidWorks, Fusion 360, Mastercam, or similar
Experience generating CNC programs and toolpaths
Strong understanding of CNC machining processes, tolerances and manufacturing methods, and engineering drawings
Nice to Have:
Experience in motorsports, racing engines, or performance automotive
5-axis machining experience
Fixture and tooling design experience
Experience with reverse engineering or 3D scanning
Experience with cylinder heads or engine machining
What You’ll Get
Competitive salary based on experience
Benefits package
Paid time off
Opportunity to work in a
high-performance motorsports environment
Why This Role This is not a corporate desk job. You’ll work hands-on with
real parts, real engines, and real performance gains . Your designs will go directly from CAD to CNC to the racetrack.
