Job Title: SolidWorks Specialist

Job Type: Contractor
Location: Remote

Job Overview

We are seeking experienced SolidWorks Specialists to contribute their expertise to an innovative project at the intersection of mechanical engineering and emerging AI technology. In this role, you will help improve next-generation AI systems by creating, reviewing, and refining mechanical CAD models and technical documentation. No prior AI experience is required—your engineering and CAD expertise are what matter most.

Key Responsibilities

  • Create fully parametric 3D CAD models of mechanical parts and assemblies using SolidWorks based on detailed design requirements.

  • Edit and update existing parametric CAD models while maintaining robust feature trees, design intent, and model integrity.

  • Review and audit CAD models for dimensional accuracy, tolerance application, manufacturability, and overall design quality.

  • Apply Design for Manufacturability (DFM) principles across manufacturing processes including injection molding, sheet metal fabrication, CNC machining, casting, and forging.

  • Develop and maintain clear engineering documentation to support design revisions and AI model training.

  • Translate engineering requirements into structured CAD data suitable for AI learning and validation.

  • Collaborate remotely with cross-functional teams, providing clear written reports, technical documentation, and verbal updates.

Required Skills

  • SolidWorks.

  • Parametric CAD modeling.

  • GD&T (ASME Y14.5).

  • Design for Manufacturability (DFM).

  • Mechanical design.

  • Injection molding.

  • Sheet metal design.

  • CNC machining.

  • Casting and forging.

  • Assembly modeling.

  • CAD editing and feature tree management.

  • Design documentation.

  • Reverse engineering (Scan-to-CAD).

  • Manufacturability analysis.

  • Python, iLogic, and VBA scripting.

  • Tolerance application.

  • Project documentation.

  • Strong written and verbal communication.

  • Excellent problem-solving skills and attention to detail.

Preferred Qualifications

  • 4+ years of hands-on parametric CAD experience for editing tasks and 10+ years for creating complex assemblies.

  • Expert proficiency in SolidWorks, with experience in Autodesk Inventor, Fusion 360, or FreeCAD considered an advantage.

  • Practical experience applying GD&T in accordance with ASME Y14.5 or equivalent standards.

  • Proven experience supporting multiple manufacturing processes, including injection molding, sheet metal fabrication, CNC machining, casting, and forging.

  • Current experience in mechanical or industrial CAD modeling.

  • Reverse engineering expertise, including Scan-to-CAD and point cloud conversion workflows.

  • Experience with assembly-level design and CAD workflow automation using Python, iLogic, VBA, or similar scripting tools.

  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills with strong technical documentation abilities.

Why Join Us?

  • Fully remote contractor opportunity.

  • Flexible work schedule.

  • Opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge AI technology using your mechanical engineering expertise.

  • Collaborate with multidisciplinary engineering and AI teams on innovative technical projects.

  • No prior AI experience required—training and project guidance will be provided.
