- Create models suitable for casting, 3D printing, finishing, and stone setting.
- Make revisions based on customer, designer, management, or manufacturing feedback.

- Prepare accurate production files/STL files.
- Maintain organized CAD files and project documentation.
- Communicate clearly with the jewelry design and manufacturing teams.
- Meet agreed deadlines and turnaround times.

- Strong communication skills.

Preferred

- Experience with ZBrush.
- Experience creating high-end/custom fine jewelry.
- Experience with diamond and gemstone jewelry.
- Experience designing jewelry for the U.S. market.
