​ Hi everyone! I'm a Mechanical & Product Development Engineer based in India, offering freelance support to startups, inventors, entrepreneurs, and businesses looking to develop or improve physical products. I have hands-on experience working across product design, medical-device R&D, reverse engineering, prototyping, manufacturing processes, and vendor development. Here's how I can help: 🔹 3D CAD Design: SolidWorks part modeling, assemblies, and detailed engineering drawings. 🔹 Product Development: Turning concepts, sketches, or reference products into manufacturable designs. 🔹 Reverse Engineering: Reconstructing components from physical samples, photographs, measurements, or existing drawings. 🔹 DFM/DFMA Support: Design reviews focused on manufacturability, assembly, material selection, and cost optimization. 🔹 Prototyping & Manufacturing: Support with CNC machining, turning, milling, sheet metal, injection molding, and fabrication planning. 🔹 Fixtures & Special-Purpose Machines: Mechanical mechanisms, fixtures, jigs, and production equipment design. 🔹 BOM & Cost Optimization: Material selection, manufacturing process comparisons, vendor development, and value engineering. 🔹 Technical Documentation: Engineering drawings, specifications, BOMs, and manufacturing documentation. My background includes medical-device product development, so I'm also familiar with the importance of traceability, design documentation, and quality requirements in regulated product development. Who I'd love to work with: Early-stage hardware startups and inventors. Small and medium-sized manufacturers. Product development companies needing additional CAD or engineering support. International clients looking for reliable remote mechanical design assistance. I'm based in India and open to working with clients both locally and internationally. I can take on individual assignments or provide ongoing project support, depending on the scope. If you have a product idea, an existing design that needs improvement, or a mechanical engineering task you'd like help with, feel free to DM me with a brief description. Happy to discuss the scope, deliverables, timelines, and budget before starting. Thanks!   submitted by   /u/mr_shashh [link]   [comments]
