Cabinet Engineer / Shop Drawing Specialist — Remote (Philippines)
Company: Selhorst Woodworks — Custom Millwork & Finish Carpentry (Las Vegas, NV, USA) Type: Full-time, remote, long-term Pay: $275 USD per week Start date: Immediately
About Us
We are a custom millwork and finish carpentry shop in Las Vegas, Nevada. We specialize in custom wall units, mud rooms, entertainment built-ins, and other architectural millwork. Everything we make is custom — no catalog boxes, no repeat SKUs. Our shop drawings have to be right the first time, because a mistake on paper becomes an expensive mistake in wood.
We are looking for one experienced cabinet engineer to join our team long-term.
The Role
You will take approved designs and field measurements and turn them into complete, buildable shop drawings that our shop can cut and assemble without asking questions.
Day to day, you will:
Model complete cabinet runs and individual casework in 3D
Produce shop drawings: plans, elevations, sections, and detail views with full dimensions
Generate cut lists and panel/part breakdowns for the shop
Specify joinery, construction methods, panel materials, edgebanding, and hardware
Lay out doors, drawer fronts, and reveals; call out overlays, gaps, and finished ends
Detail hardware placement — hinges, slides, lift systems, pulls, adjustable shelving
Work out scribe and filler strategy for walls, floors, and ceilings that are never square
Coordinate with our designers and project managers on revisions and field changes
Flag design problems before they hit the shop floor — bad clearances, out-of-square wall conditions, impossible reveals
What You Must Have
Real frameless cabinet experience. This is the requirement we will not bend on. We build euro frameless only — no face frame. You need to know the 32mm system, full overlay, box construction and sizing, finished end treatment, and how reveals and tolerances stack up across a run. You have engineered custom casework before, not just furniture or general product design.
Strong parametric 3D CAD skill. Fusion 360, SolidWorks, Inventor, Mozaik, Cabinet Vision, Microvellum, Polyboard, SketchList — whichever you use, you need to be genuinely fast and accurate in it and able to produce a full dimensioned drawing set from your model.
File-exchange fluency. You can reliably import and export between your CAD program and AutoCAD and SketchUp — DWG, DXF, STEP — and keep dimensions, layers, and scale intact through the round trip. Our upstream drawings come to you in AutoCAD and SketchUp, and this cannot be a weak spot.
You can read and work from architectural drawings and field measurements.
Comfort working in imperial units — inches and fractions. This is how all of our drawings are dimensioned.
Strong written English. Almost all of our coordination happens in writing.
Reliable internet, a computer that runs 3D CAD comfortably, and a quiet place to work.
Availability to overlap with Las Vegas business hours (Pacific Time) for part of your day.
Strongly Preferred
Fusion 360 experience. Fusion is what our shop runs on. If you already know it, that is a real advantage and we will say so in the offer. If you don't but you are strong in another 3D program, we will train you — expect to be productive in Fusion within your first few weeks.
Hands-on shop experience actually building or installing cabinets. If you have run a saw, assembled boxes, or hung a run of built-ins, we want to talk to you first.
Experience preparing files for CNC — nesting, part labeling, machining callouts
Experience working with a US-based shop or US construction standards
Who This Is Not For
General 3D modelers, renderers, or furniture designers with no cabinet background
Anyone whose only experience is face frame construction
Anyone who cannot commit to a consistent full-time weekly schedule
Compensation and Terms
$275 USD per week, paid weekly
Full-time, long-term position with room to grow as our volume grows
Paid time off after an initial trial period
Work is 100% remote
How to Apply
Send an application that includes all of the following. Applications missing any item will not be reviewed.
A short introduction — where you have worked, and what kind of cabinets you engineered there.
Portfolio or work samples of frameless cabinet shop drawings you personally produced. PDFs are fine. If your past work is confidential, send anything you own or have created on your own.
Which 3D CAD program you use, how many years, and what you use it for. Tell us if you have any Fusion 360 experience.
Whether you have hands-on shop or installation experience, and where.
A description of how you move files between your CAD program and AutoCAD or SketchUp — which formats you use and what you watch out for.
Your computer specs and internet speed.
Your available working hours in Pacific Time.

Qualified applicants will be given a short paid test project — one real cabinet run drawn to our standard — before hire.
