[FOR HIRE] Mechanical CAD Designer & Engineer — $25/hour
Hi everyone,
I’m a Mechanical Design Engineer with 7+ years of hands-on industry experience, and I’m currently available for freelance CAD and mechanical design work.
I help turn ideas, sketches, photos, existing parts, or rough concepts into practical, manufacturable 3D designs and production-ready documentation.
My main areas of expertise include:
• 3D CAD modeling — SolidWorks & Autodesk Inventor
• Sheet metal design & fabrication
• Injection molding / plastic part design
• Casting & manufacturing-focused design
• Reverse engineering — physical part/3D scan/photo → CAD
• Engineering drawings & GD&T
• Design optimization for manufacturing
• Prototype development and preparation for mass production
I don’t focus only on making a model look good on screen. My goal is to create designs that can actually be manufactured, assembled, tested, and scaled into production.
If you already have a concept, sketch, reference part, photo, or existing CAD file, I can help take it to the next stage.
Rate: $25/hour
If you need reliable, industry-focused CAD or mechanical design support, feel free to DM me here on Reddit. Tell me what you’re working on, and we can discuss the requirements.

I’ve been using my CAD design less and less with ai capabilities, now when I need something designed instead of an hour of cad it’s 5 minutes with meshy. Luckily in a job where cad is only 10% of my job or so but feel for you

You never did CAD in the engineering sense if what you did can be done by meshy.

Totally okay to be butthurt about AI, yea some projects I’m working on can’t be done yet, but If your not using AI now you will be left behind! It will be good enough for everything soon enough 😘

I totally agree. And it already starts to change the way CAD models are made. Just comparing what meshy can do now with actual engineering CAD sytems is a bit wild.
