We are looking for Autodesk Fusion 360 Specialist candidates for a project delivered through micro1.
What you'll do
- Develop fully parametric 3D models of mechanical parts and assemblies based on detailed written briefs, emphasizing robust sketching, constraints, and feature trees.
- Edit and update existing parametric CAD models to reflect evolving requirements, ensuring manufacturability and compliance with specifications.
- Audit and review CAD models for dimensional accuracy, tolerance application, and alignment with design intent, calling out any gaps or deviations.
- Support AI model training by delivering consistent, high-quality CAD data and clear documentation of design decisions.
- Apply deep working knowledge of manufacturing processes—such as injection molding, sheet metal fabrication, CNC machining, and casting/forging—to optimize designs for production.
- Communicate design rationale, feedback, and technical insights with clarity—both in writing and verbally—in support of collaboration and continuous project improvement.
What you need
- Strong 3D parametric CAD modelling experience.
Nice to have
- Extensive hands-on experience with parametric CAD platforms (ideally FreeCAD, with strong proficiency in Autodesk Fusion 360, SolidWorks, or Inventor acceptable).
- Proven application of GD&T principles (ASME Y14.5 or equivalent) in real-world projects.
- Demonstrated DFM expertise across at least 2-3 manufacturing processes relevant to the project scope.
- 4+ years of applied experience for model editing tasks; 10+ years for complex model creation assignments.
- Proven ability to tackle assembly-level modeling, not just single-part tasks.
- Experience in reverse engineering workflows, such as scan-to-CAD or point cloud conversions, is highly valued.
- Familiarity with CAD automation or scripting (e.g., Python, iLogic, NX Open, VBA) considered a strong plus for automating and standardizing workflows.
