- Technical Expertise: * Strong knowledge of Modular Furniture (Panel processing, edge-banding, KD fittings, and CNC operations).
- Solid understanding of Carpentry (Solid wood species, joinery techniques, veneers, and manual wood-working tools).
- Software: Proficiency in MS Excel for scheduling; familiarity with AutoCAD or production software (like WoodWOP or Cabinet Vision) is a major plus.
- Problem Solving: Ability to troubleshoot machinery issues and resolve design-to-production discrepancies on the fly.
