Remote | FreeCAD Expert — $40–$80/hour
About The Position
This part-time consulting opportunity involves contributing to an advanced AI training project focused on engineering design interpretation. The selected professional will analyse complex, multi-part assemblies provided in native FreeCAD format and create technically precise, objective questions and answers grounded in the source designs. Work includes interpreting geometry, assembly relationships, technical drawings, engineering function, and design intent, and producing assessment-ready content whose answers can be verified against the CAD files and associated engineering information. The engagement is fully remote and described as an independent contractor role. Compensation is $40–$80 per hour. Project scope, workload, timing, and duration may evolve according to project requirements. Work must not use confidential or proprietary information belonging to an employer, client, institution, or other third party. The opportunity is available through 24-MAG LLC, which connects experienced professionals with remote consulting opportunities.
Requirements
- Extensive background in mechanical engineering, aerospace engineering, industrial design, or a closely related discipline.
- Strong foundational knowledge of CAD principles and engineering design interpretation.
- Significant experience working with multi-part assemblies.
- Ability to interpret complex engineering drawings and technical design intent.
- Strong technical writing and communication skills.
- Demonstrated ability to author detailed technical questions, training content, or assessment material.
- Meticulous attention to detail and commitment to objective, high-quality technical work.
- Ability to work independently while collaborating effectively in a remote environment.
- Work must be completed without using confidential or proprietary information belonging to any employer, client, institution, or other third party.
Nice To Haves
- Familiarity with FreeCAD or comparable CAD platforms; direct FreeCAD experience is advantageous but not mandatory.
- Strong experience with complex mechanical assemblies and technical design interpretation.
Responsibilities
- Review complex multi-part CAD assemblies and interpret their geometry, component relationships, and engineering function.
- Analyse native FreeCAD files and associated technical design information.
- Identify important features, interfaces, and dependencies between assembly components.
- Apply mechanical engineering principles when interpreting design intent and assembly behaviour.
- Evaluate technical details with precision and consistency.
- Author objective, precise, non-guessable questions based on provided CAD assemblies.
- Develop several technically meaningful questions per assembly that require domain expertise and have exact, verifiable answers.
- Keep technical prompts aligned with the underlying assembly data.
- Produce clear, accurate, well-supported answers to technical questions.
- Verify answers against source CAD files and engineering information, including geometry, component relationships, and technical drawings.
- Identify and document ambiguity before finalising conclusions.
- Collaborate asynchronously through written and verbal communication, clarify requirements, and respond to feedback.
- Document technical insights, uncertainties, and ambiguities encountered during analysis.
- Contribute to iterative improvement of question sets and project workflows.
- Communicate complex engineering concepts clearly and concisely.
