SolidWorks Specialist
micro1
$40 – $100/hour · as listed
This remote role involves creating and refining 3D parametric CAD models of mechanical components and assemblies using SolidWorks. You'll develop fully-parametric designs from detailed briefs, edit existing models to meet updated specifications, and audit models for compliance with dimensional and manufacturability standards. Your work directly supports AI training by providing high-quality mechanical design data and clear documentation of your design reasoning. This is ideal for advanced CAD professionals who want to contribute specialized technical expertise to AI development without requiring prior AI experience.
You should have substantial hands-on experience with parametric modeling—typically 4+ years for editing and refinement tasks, or 10+ years for complex creation work. Strong proficiency in SolidWorks or comparable platforms like Autodesk Inventor, FreeCAD, or Fusion 360 is essential. You'll need expertise in technical drawing standards such as ASME GD&T, and a solid understanding of Design for Manufacturability across injection molding, sheet metal, CNC machining, and casting processes. Excellent written and verbal communication skills are required to deliver precise feedback and support project stakeholders.
