Mid/Senior Fabrication Specialist
Pubblicato il 19-08-2026 - Levà in Torino
Turn engineering designs into the finished parts, prototypes, and assemblies that make Leva’s kinetic installations possible.
We’re looking for a hands-on Prototype Fabrication Specialist who can move from engineering CAD and drawings to CAM, setup, machining, finishing, fitting, and assembly. You’ll produce one-off and low-volume components that must work reliably as part of larger kinetic systems.
This is a workshop-first role. The engineering team owns the original component and system design; you will own the practical route from supplied engineering data to finished output, identify manufacturability issues, and feed workshop learning back into the design process.
The position can be filled at mid or senior level. Around three or more years of relevant experience is a useful guide, not a hard gate: we will assess level through hands‑on evidence, job complexity, workshop judgment, repeatability improvements, and coaching scope.
In this role you will:
- Review engineering CAD, drawings, materials, tolerances, quantities, finish requirements, cost,
and lead time before starting fabrication.
- Select practical production processes that match the part, project constraints, and required level of repeatability.
- Prepare, optimise, and safely prove CAM programs for three‑axis CNC milling.
- Select cutting tools, workholding, fixtures, feeds, speeds, machining strategies, and safe operation sequences.
- Set up and operate CNC milling equipment, inspect early results, and adapt the process when the material, setup, or first part requires iteration.
- Make limited production‑oriented CAD changes and design fixtures, jigs, soft jaws, templates, and other workshop aids, while leaving the original engineering architecture with the design team.
- Fabricate one‑off and low‑volume parts in aluminium, engineering plastics, wood, and related materials, working to drawing tolerances including the 0.05–0.10 mm range where required.
- Deburr, finish, fit, adjust, and assemble c
