What is a Solidworks expert?

A SolidWorks Expert is a professional skilled in using SolidWorks, a 3D CAD (Computer-Aided Design) software, to create detailed models, assemblies, and drawings for engineering and manufacturing purposes. They are responsible for designing, analyzing, and optimizing products or mechanical components. SolidWorks Experts often work in industries such as automotive, aerospace, industrial design, and consumer products. Their role may also involve collaboration with engineers, manufacturers, and product managers to refine designs and ensure manufacturability.

What kinds of projects and team collaborations can a solidworks expert expect in this role?

As a Solidworks Expert, you'll typically work on designing complex parts, assemblies, and manufacturing drawings for products across industries such as automotive, aerospace, or consumer goods. You’ll regularly collaborate with cross-functional teams including engineers, project managers, and manufacturing specialists to refine designs and ensure manufacturability. Coordination with other departments, such as quality assurance and procurement, is common to align technical requirements and project timelines. This role provides opportunities to lead innovation efforts and contribute ideas throughout the product development lifecycle, making teamwork and adaptability especially important.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a solidworks expert, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Solidworks Expert, you need advanced proficiency in 3D CAD modeling, mechanical design principles, and strong problem-solving abilities, often backed by a degree in engineering or a related field. Expertise in the Solidworks software suite—including simulation, drawing, and PDM tools—and relevant certifications, such as CSWP or CSWE, are highly valued. Excellent attention to detail, collaboration, and effective communication skills set top professionals apart in this field. These skills ensure accurate design solutions, efficient workflow within engineering teams, and high-value contributions to product development projects.

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.
