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.
