Autodesk Inventor Specialist

Remotebridge; United States; A distancia; USD 83.000 - 165.000; A tiempo parcial

Descripción de la vacante

Remotebridge seeks an Autodesk Inventor Specialist for a remote contractor role focused on advanced mechanical design. You will develop fully-parametric 3D CAD models and create detailed drawings, while aligning with DFM practices and ASME Y14.5 GD&T standards.

This position supports AI training by documenting design decisions and audits. Ideal candidates have 4+ years in parametric modeling and proficiency in Autodesk Inventor, plus familiarity with FreeCAD/SolidWorks/Fusion 360.

Formación

• Hands-on parametric modeling experience for edit-level tasks (min 4 years).
• Advanced knowledge of Autodesk Inventor; familiarity with FreeCAD, SolidWorks or Fusion 360 is highly relevant.
• Good understanding of GD&T (ASME Y14.5) and practical application.
• DFM experience across multiple processes (injection molding, sheet metal, CNC, casting/forging).

Responsabilidades

• Develop fully-parametric 3D CAD models of mechanical parts and assemblies from briefs using Inventor or similar tools.
• Edit and update existing models to reflect revised requirements while keeping changes parametric.
• Audit CAD models for tolerances, dimensions, and manufacturability; document gaps.
• Create and interpret technical drawings with GD&T standards.
• Ensure robust DFM considerations across injection molding, sheet metal, CNC, and casting/forging.
• Provide clear documentation and rationale to support AI training initiatives.
• Communicate feedback and solutions clearly to project stakeholders.

Descripción del empleo

Role Title: Autodesk Inventor Specialist

Role Type: Contractor

Location: Remote

Our team is engaging Autodesk Inventor Specialists to contribute to a customer-focused project involving advanced mechanical design. 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 Autodesk Inventor Specialist. This experience is directly transferable to FreeCAD, which is the software this project will focus on. Prior FreeCAD experience is ideal.

Scope of Work

• Develop fully‑parametric 3D CAD models of mechanical parts and assemblies based on detailed written briefs using Autodesk Inventor (or comparable platforms).
• Edit and update existing models to reflect revised requirements, ensuring all changes remain fully parametric and in line with best practices.
• Audit and review CAD models for compliance with dimensional, tolerance, and manufacturability criteria, identifying and documenting any gaps or issues.
• Create and interpret detailed technical drawings, applying ASME Y14.5 or equivalent GD&T standards.
• Ensure robust Design for Manufacturability (DFM) considerations across processes such as injection molding, sheet metal, CNC machining, and casting/forging.
• Support AI training initiatives by providing clear documentation and rationale for design decisions, edits, and audits.
• Communicate effectively in written and verbal formats, delivering precise feedback and solution‑oriented insights to project stakeholders.

Preferred Qualifications

• Minimum 4 years of hands‑on parametric modeling experience for edit‑level tasks; 10+ years for complex creation work.
• Expertise in Autodesk Inventor, with fluency in similar platforms like FreeCAD, SolidWorks, or Fusion 360 considered highly relevant.
• Demonstrated proficiency with GD&T (ASME Y14.5 or equivalent), with practical, real‑world application.
• Proven DFM experience covering at least two to three manufacturing processes (e.g., injection molding, sheet metal, CNC, casting).
• Experience with reverse engineering workflows, such as scan‑to‑CAD or point cloud‑to‑model reconstruction.
• Ability to manage assembly‑level designs and complex mechanical systems, not just single‑part modeling.
• Familiarity with CAD automation, scripting (Python, iLogic, VBA, NX Open), or similar tools for enhancing workflow efficiency.
