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

  1. Analyze multi-part mechanical assemblies provided in native FreeCAD files, ensuring full understanding of component relationships and assembly design intent.
  2. Develop objective, non-guessable, and precise question-and-answer sets for each assigned assembly, focusing on technical accuracy and clarity.
  3. Create several detailed technical questions per assembly, covering mechanical functions, design rationale, and dimensional considerations.
  4. Format each question and corresponding answer to be unambiguous and aligned with real-world engineering standards.
  5. Submit high-quality deliverables within agreed-upon project parameters, maintaining clear and prompt communication with project coordinators.
  6. Leverage written and verbal communication skills to clarify ambiguities and collaborate effectively within a distributed team environment.

Preferred Qualifications

  1. Proven background in mechanical engineering, aerospace, or industrial design, with strong foundational and applied CAD knowledge.
  2. Expertise in interpreting and analyzing complex mechanical assemblies and engineering drawings.
  3. Familiarity with FreeCAD is advantageous; however, experience with other CAD platforms (e.g., SolidWorks, CATIA, Autodesk Inventor) is valuable.
  4. Demonstrated ability to author clear, precise, and objective technical documentation or assessment materials.
  5. Strong attention to detail, analytical thinking, and a commitment to technical accuracy and objectivity.
  6. Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with an emphasis on documenting technical insights for varied audiences.
  7. Ability to work independently, manage deliverables, and adapt to project requirements in a remote context.

  • Rationale: The short written explanation you give for a rating or ranking. Reviewers often weigh it as much as the rating itself.
  • Prompt: The input given to a model: a question, an instruction or a conversation so far.
  • Assessment: Any screening step a platform uses before giving you work: a quiz, a skills test, a language test, a writing sample or an AI interview.

How applying on micro1 works

You apply from the role page on micro1. A third-party job page describes an interview run by an AI interviewer (aitrainer.work), and micro1's referral program page says referred candidates must complete certification (referral program page). The exact steps differ by role and were not verified first-hand for this page.
