Our platform identifies and vets top talent through an AI recruiter, enabling high-quality expert contributions at scale. We aim to enable 1 billion people to do meaningful work by applying their expertise to AI. As our global expert network grows, micro1 is building the human intelligence layer for frontier AI.

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

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

Preferred Qualifications

1. 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.
2. Practical application of GD&T per ASME Y14.5 or equivalent standards in real-world manufacturing contexts.
3. Track record in supporting at least two or more manufacturing methods: injection molding, sheet metal, CNC, or casting/forging.
4. Current, active involvement in mechanical/industrial CAD modeling.
5. Strong written and verbal communication skills, with emphasis on clear, concise project documentation.
6. Reverse engineering capability (e.g., scan-to-CAD, point cloud conversions) considered a significant advantage.
7. Experience with assembly-level modeling and, optionally, automating CAD workflows via scripting (Python, iLogic, VBA, etc.).
