About The Role

As a Cabinet Drafter at Savvital, you will play a critical role in supporting a U.S.-based custom cabinetry and manufacturing client. Please note: This position is not for a general CAD Drafter, architectural drafter, or entry-level operator.

The ideal candidate must possess focused Mozaik CAM experience and a deep, practical understanding of physical cabinet manufacturing workflows. You must be capable of creating production-ready cabinet drawings that can move directly into CNC processing with minimal or no adjustments from the manufacturing team. You should be capable of independently taking a design concept and delivering a CNC-ready Mozaik project that the workshop can process immediately.

What You'll Be Doing

CNC Production Preparation: Create "plug and play" Mozaik projects and generate CNC-ready manufacturing files that move directly into production workflows with zero adjustments. Construction Conflict Resolution: Proactively identify, troubleshoot, and resolve structural or construction conflicts digitally before manufacturing begins. Optimized Drafting: Design and structure layout projects in Mozaik specifically to reduce production bottlenecks and optimize CNC machining efficiency. Manufacturing Translation: Successfully translate cabinet parts, joinery method details, hardware requirements, machining operations, and final assemblies into clean manufacturing files. Practical Layout Design: Create cabinet layouts that are both aesthetically correct and highly practical to manufacture, consistently accounting for real-world manufacturing constraints and installation requirements. File & Data Administration: Apply best practices for producing clean, organized, and highly efficient manufacturing and nested files for the production team.

What We're Looking For

Mozaik CAM Expertise: 6+ months of dedicated, hands-on experience using Mozaik software to structure projects for direct CNC processing is mandatory. Manufacturing Knowledge: A deep, thorough understanding of how cabinets are physically built, assembled, machined, and installed. Background: Prior experience working inside custom cabinetry shops, cabinet manufacturing facilities, millwork companies, woodworking production, or CNC programming environments. Experience working with US-based clients is highly preferred. Mindset & Competencies: Extreme attention to detail, strong problem-solving skills, and a proactive, ownership-driven mindset. You must not require extensive guidance to convert designs into production-ready files. Communication: Strong written and verbal English communication skills to collaborate smoothly with international clients and production teams. Education: A Bachelor's degree or relevant technical diplomas/certifications in Engineering, Woodworking Technology, Architecture, or a related field is preferred.

Candidates Will Not Be Considered If They

Only have general CAD drafting or strictly architectural drafting experience. Have never worked inside a physical cabinet manufacturing, millwork, woodworking, or CNC production environment. Lack an understanding of how cabinet construction decisions impact physical CNC machining and manufacturing efficiency.

Compensation & Benefits

Base Salary: Market Competitive. Allowances: Dedicated allowances for Internet, Electricity, and Wellbeing. Medical Insurance: Comprehensive health coverage included. Performance Incentives: Performance-based bonuses, individual/team targets, and annual increments. Success Sharing: Company-wide success bonuses.
