Mechanical CAD Assembly Analyst
Job Description
Develop precise engineering questions whose answers can be verified directly from multipart CAD assemblies.
What you will do
• Examine native FreeCAD assemblies, relationships, design intent, constraints and potential failures.
• Write several objective questions covering dimensions, functions, geometry and interactions between components.
• Document exact answers with evidence from the models.
• Check AI mechanical reasoning and improve vague, trivial or unanswerable questions.
• Record edge cases and explain why interpretations differ.
Required background
• Ability to interpret mechanical assemblies and produce accurate, verifiable technical explanations.
Preferred background
• Mechanical/aerospace engineering or industrial-design experience and strong CAD fundamentals.
• Experience interpreting multipart assemblies, drawings, mechanisms, kinematics and tolerance decisions.
• For senior design-judgment work, 5• years creating assemblies from concept and teaching, mentoring or design-review leadership are preferred.
• Proficiency in a major system such as SolidWorks, Creo, NX, CATIA, Inventor, Fusion, Onshape or Solid Edge; direct FreeCAD experience is useful but not mandatory.
• Technical authoring, strong English communication, attention to detail and independent remote delivery.
• Industrial machinery, robotics, automotive/heavy equipment, aerospace/defense, medical devices, consumer products or tooling experience.
Availability
• Remote and asynchronous; senior assembly-analysis work has an approximately 15-hour weekly planning reference.
