Advanced proficiency with FreeCAD or an equivalent parametric CAD platform.

Strong mechanical design knowledge, including GD&T and design-for-manufacturing best practices.

Ability to produce comprehensive technical drawings and documentation for manufacturing and assembly.

Experience with engineering QA, model-integrity verification, and specification compliance.

Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills for remote, project-based collaboration.
