Mechanical CAD Expert

Employer description and requirements

Role Title: Mechanical CAD Expert

Role Type: Contractor

Location: Remote

micro1 is engaging Mechanical CAD Experts to contribute to a customer project focused on advanced engineering assemblies. 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.

Scope of Work

Analyze multi-part mechanical assemblies provided in native FreeCAD files, ensuring full understanding of component relationships and assembly design intent.

Develop objective, non-guessable, and precise question-and-answer sets for each assigned assembly, focusing on technical accuracy and clarity.

Create several detailed technical questions per assembly, covering mechanical functions, design rationale, and dimensional considerations.

Format each question and corresponding answer to be unambiguous and aligned with real-world engineering standards.

Submit high-quality deliverables within agreed-upon project parameters, maintaining clear and prompt communication with project coordinators.

Leverage written and verbal communication skills to clarify ambiguities and collaborate effectively within a distributed team environment.

Preferred Qualifications

Proven background in mechanical engineering, aerospace, or industrial design, with strong foundational and applied CAD knowledge.

Expertise in interpreting and analyzing complex mechanical assemblies and engineering drawings.

Familiarity with FreeCAD is advantageous; however, experience with other CAD platforms (e.g., SolidWorks, CATIA, Autodesk Inventor) is valuable.

Demonstrated ability to author clear, precise, and objective technical documentation or assessment materials.

Strong attention to detail, analytical thinking, and a commitment to technical accuracy and objectivity.

Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with an emphasis on documenting technical insights for varied audiences.

Ability to work independently, manage deliverables, and adapt to project requirements in a remote context.
