Summary: The FreeCAD Expert role focuses on leading parametric modeling projects with an emphasis on BIM methodologies and IFC workflows. The position requires advanced proficiency in FreeCAD and involves collaboration with technical teams to ensure interoperability across CAD/BIM platforms. This is a project-based contract role that allows for remote work. Candidates should have a strong portfolio demonstrating their experience in managing complex 3D CAD workflows.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead end-to-end parametric modeling projects in FreeCAD from concept to production-ready deliverables.
  • Utilize BIM methodologies and IFC workflows to coordinate and document building models (walls, slabs, structural elements).
  • Import, export, and validate IFC data to ensure interoperability across CAD/BIM platforms.
  • Develop and manage constrained sketches, parametric model trees, and structured building components.
  • Prepare detailed documentation sets including technical drawings and model exports (STEP, STL, DXF, IFC).
  • Clearly articulate modeling strategies, BIM structuring decisions, and interoperability considerations.
  • Collaborate with technical teams to document workflow rationale supporting AI learning initiatives.

Key Skills:

  • Advanced proficiency in FreeCAD with a portfolio of complex completed projects.
  • Proven experience managing full parametric 3D CAD workflows from concept to final output.
  • Strong practical knowledge of BIM methodologies and IFC standards within FreeCAD environments.
  • Experience structuring building models and managing interoperability data.
  • Working knowledge of AutoCAD, CAM, and related 3D CAD tools.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills with strong documentation capabilities.
