[Remote] Remote | Senior FreeCAD Engineer — $40–$100/hour

Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. 24-MAG LLC is offering a consulting opportunity for a Senior FreeCAD Engineer to contribute to an advanced AI training and mechanical-design project. The role involves creating, validating, and documenting parametric CAD models and assemblies, with a focus on engineering standards, manufacturability, technical documentation, quality assurance, and CAD automation.

Responsibilities

• Create detailed parametric CAD models in FreeCAD
• Modify existing models to meet evolving technical requirements
• Apply robust modelling practices that preserve design intent and editability
• Maintain geometric accuracy across parts, features, and complex model structures
• Validate completed models against project specifications
• Develop and optimise mechanical assemblies
• Apply strong component-integration and assembly-design principles
• Define appropriate mechanical relationships, interfaces, and constraints
• Evaluate assemblies for fit, function, and design consistency
• Identify opportunities to improve assembly robustness and maintainability
• Apply rigorous Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing principles
• Use Design for Manufacturing best practices throughout modelling workflows
• Evaluate dimensions, tolerances, and geometric controls for production readiness
• Identify modelling choices that may create manufacturing or inspection challenges
• Ensure design intent remains aligned with practical manufacturing requirements
• Generate clear and precise technical drawings
• Prepare supporting engineering documentation for review and downstream processes
• Communicate dimensions, tolerances, assembly requirements, and design intent accurately
• Document modelling assumptions and engineering decisions clearly
• Maintain consistent documentation standards across project deliverables
• Conduct detailed QA reviews of CAD models and technical drawings
• Verify model integrity and compliance with engineering specifications
• Identify geometric errors, inconsistencies, incomplete constraints, or documentation gaps
• Communicate issues clearly and contribute to practical resolution
• Maintain a high standard of accuracy and consistency across engineering outputs
• Use Python scripting to automate CAD workflows where appropriate
• Streamline repetitive or technically complex modelling operations
• Improve workflow reproducibility and efficiency through automation
• Support parametrisation and model generation with scripted processes
• Contribute to scalable CAD workflows for larger engineering-data initiatives

Skills

• 2+ years of experience in mechanical engineering, product design, industrial engineering, or a closely related field
• Strong focus on parametric CAD modelling
• Advanced proficiency in FreeCAD or comparable parametric CAD platforms
• Strong understanding of mechanical-design fundamentals
• Practical knowledge of GD&T and Design for Manufacturing principles
• Experience creating production-oriented technical drawings and engineering documentation
• Strong assembly-design and component-integration skills
• Experience conducting engineering QA and validating CAD models against specifications
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
• Excellent written and verbal technical communication
• No prior AI-training or model-evaluation experience is required
• Python scripting or CAD automation experience is highly advantageous but not mandatory

Benefits

• Fully remote work
