Job Description

Role Title: SolidWorks Specialist

Role Type: Contractor

Location: Remote

micro1 is engaging SolidWorks Specialists to contribute to a high-impact mechanical design project for an innovative customer. In this role, you'll apply your expertise to help train next-generation AI systems. Your work will shape how models learn, reason, and perform through high-quality, real-world input. No prior experience in AI is required — your domain knowledge is what matters.

Note on Software

We’re looking for experts with strong 3D parametric CAD modelling experience — for example, in SolidWorks. This experience is directly transferable to FreeCAD, which is the software this project will focus on. Prior FreeCAD experience is ideal.

Scope of Work

• Create fully-parametric 3D CAD models of mechanical parts and assemblies based on written briefs, focusing on robust feature trees and precise constraints.
• Edit and update existing parametric models to meet new technical requirements, ensuring complete documentation of changes.
• Audit and review models for dimensional accuracy, proper tolerance application, and manufacturability across various processes.
• Apply deep knowledge of DFM principles for injection molding, sheet metal, CNC machining, and casting/forging throughout modeling tasks.
• Translate design intent and requirements into clear, structured CAD data suitable for AI model training.
• Communicate effectively with project coordinators and fellow contributors through detailed written reports and verbal updates.

Preferred Qualifications

• 4+ years of hands-on parametric CAD experience (SolidWorks, FreeCAD, Fusion 360, or Autodesk Inventor) for editing, and 10+ years for creation of complex assemblies.
• Practical application of GD&T per ASME Y14.5 or equivalent standards in real-world manufacturing contexts.
• Track record in supporting at least two or more manufacturing methods: injection molding, sheet metal, CNC, or casting/forging.
• Current, active involvement in mechanical/industrial CAD modeling.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with emphasis on clear, concise project documentation.
• Reverse engineering capability (e.g., scan-to-CAD, point cloud conversions) considered a significant advantage.
• Experience with assembly-level modeling and, optionally, automating CAD workflows via scripting (Python, iLogic, VBA, etc.).
