OTTRA is a wood furniture design and manufacturing company based in Red Hook Brooklyn. Ottra is our furniture and manufacturing company operating side by side with our Architecture and Design Studio. We are looking for someone skilled and able, who can jump right in. We need an expert at RhinoCAM and CNC operations who requires no software training. We need someone who can take a concept model and run with it. We need somebody who is smart, quick, hardworking and understands wood furniture and fabrication. This person is also a wood craftsman who can mill lumber, fabricate blanks on the front end, then assemble, sand and finish on the backend. You will do it all.

Requirements and responsibilities include:
Customizing existing designs – we frequently will modify our existing designs upon request. You will be required to do so for both sales and production purposes.
CNC programming – we use RhinoCam to create cut files and CNC parts.
Shop Drawings – you will be required to provide shop drawings to the manufacturing team illustrating the parts and construction.
We expect someone who knows what good design is. You must be your own toughest critic and understand that excellent design requires excellent work. We expect you have an internal sense that “it’s not right or done until it’s right.”
Experience in professional woodshops creating fine wood furniture and millwork in a commercial environment is a plus. Knowing how to mill lumber, assemble blanks, sand and finish is a must.
Despite experience level, applicants are expected to have quick learning skills and a desire for perfection.
Familiarity with Microsoft Office is required
The ability to work well with others, often as a team, is essential.
Must be able to apply your wide array of experiences to solve new problems.
We expect you to be responsible. Responsible means being on time everyday amongst other things. We will count on you to be here and perform your duties each day without excuses.
We expect you to be cooperative, and collaborative, a team player.
We’re looking for an all-around great addition to our team, someone looking for a chance to standout. Standouts are always recognized and given the opportunity to shine and grow!
