CAD Expert

$80–$150/h

Fully Remote-Open Worldwide

Role overview

CAD Expert


Role Type: Contractor

Location: Fully Remote-Open Worldwide

Schedule: 15-20 hrs/week. Fully flexible (Can accomodate after hours + weekends if needed)


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. No prior experience in AI is required, your CAD domain knowledge is what matters.


This is a very coding heavy role. Candidates but have experience using coding agents with python in their workflow.


Scope of Work


  1. Provide expert feedback on manufacturing processes and techniques, drawing on hands-on CAD experience (CAM and CNC workflows especially welcome).
  2. Review, assess, and refine AI-generated content and recommendations relevant to manufacturing workflows.
  3. Develop and validate detailed rubrics for evaluating manufacturing process accuracy and efficiency.

Required Qualifications


  1. Hands-on experience with any CAD platform (e.g. Fusion 360, AutoCAD, SolidWorks, Onshape, Inventor, CATIA, Creo).
  2. Strong written and verbal communication skills with an emphasis on clarity and detail.

Preferred Qualifications


  1. Experience with Autodesk tools, particularly Fusion 360 or AutoCAD.
  2. Experience using coding agents and Python.
  3. Background in CAM, CNC machining, or digital manufacturing workflows.
  4. Familiarity with AI tools (LLMs, generative design, AI-assisted workflows) and comfort evaluating AI output.
  5. Experience developing or applying process evaluation rubrics.

Process:


  1. Apply to the role, filling out the screening questions
  2. Complete AI interview (aprox. 30 minutes)
  3. Hiring Manager review

Compensation Structure


Compensation is output-based; experts are paid per task that meets the project specifications. The time required to complete work may vary depending on the expert’s experience and workflow. Minimum submission requirements apply. Experts must submit a minimum of tasks per week.

Start Timeline & Availability


We typically fill roles within 48 hours and are looking for experts ready to jump in right away. If selected, we expect you to start your first tasks within 24–48 hours of completing onboarding.

How big is the remote / hybrid opportunity?

Remote work is already huge — but the bigger story may be the hundreds of millions of jobs that could still move beyond geography.

Global remote and hybrid work opportunity infographic

Remote work already connects millions of people with companies they would never have been able to work for a decade ago. But compared with the size of the global labour market, it may still be early.

The interesting number is not only how many people work remotely today — it is how many roles could plausibly become remote or hybrid next.

The chart above starts with roughly 3.3 billion people employed worldwide. Around 300 million jobs are already remote or hybrid, while an additional pool of roughly 250 million roles could potentially move in that direction as technology, workflows and company culture continue to change.

Skills are becoming more portable

This matters because more work can increasingly be matched to expertise rather than location. AI training and evaluation are a good example: companies need lawyers, engineers, designers, editors, researchers, finance professionals and many other specialists to help improve AI systems.

For workers, that creates access to projects outside their local market. For companies, it expands the talent pool from one city or country to the world.
