Sooooo!

I’m Jaco Field

A dynamic engineering enthusiast and (UX) innovation specialist with over 8 years of professional experience turning complex ideas into impactful solutions. My expertise bridges technical precision and creative innovation, with a focus on product development, reverse engineering, and business consultation across industries such as automotive, manufacturing, and consumer products.


Throughout my career, I’ve tackled challenges ranging from optimizing manufacturing cycles to advancing user experience design (UX) and 3D scanning technologies. I’ve had the privilege of traveling internationally to collaborate with global teams, refine processes, and enhance product usability, ensuring exceptional outcomes for businesses and consumers alike.


Notably, I am a Two-Time Finalist in the prestigious International Design Excellence Awards (IDEA), hosted by the Industrial Designers Society of America (IDSA), in the Commercial & Industrial Products category—an achievement that underscores my commitment to innovation and design excellence.


What sets me apart is a passion for innovation and a hands-on approach—whether designing new processes, mentoring teams, or delivering insightful presentations. My work is driven by curiosity, creativity, and a relentless dedication to solving problems with precision.


When I’m not immersed in engineering and technology, you might find me researching topics that spark my curiosity, exploring software applications, or crafting new business ideas.

Work & Projects

UX & UI

Proposed and developed the concept for all in one 3D scanning software, integrating the functionalities of RevoScan 4 and Revo Studio into a unified platform (RevoScan 5) with a completely redesigned UI. Created a support document to guide development, focusing on improving user experience, enhancing scalability, and streamlining workflows.

Reverse Engineering

Scan to CAD inspection

Reverse-engineered metal formed parts, punches and dies, and cast components such as manifolds and pump housings, optimizing designs for CNC manufacturing from billet materials. Additionally, I utilized 3D scanning technology for Scan-to-CAD inspections, emphasizing the identification and reporting of manufacturing errors. Notable clients for this work include CRH-AfricaLinde+WiemanFaurecia and Robbie Deyzel Engineering/CNC.

Drafting & Design

In previous projects I excelled in CAD/CAM engineering, collaborating directly with the lead industrial designer to deliver cutting-edge solutions for prominent automotive clients including BMW, Mercedes, and Toyota in South Africa. I specialized in producing 2D manufacturing drawings for automated machinery while also delivering advanced drafting and design solutions for various clients. A notable example is the race car frame design showcased to the left, highlighting the breadth of my expertise.
