CAD Engineer for Sports Bra Innovation

About the project

# Freelance Project: Industrial Designer / CAD Engineer for Innovative Sports Bra (Patent-Pending Concept) ## Project Overview I'm looking for an experienced **industrial designer, product engineer, or technical apparel designer** to help develop a professional 3D CAD model and engineering concept package for an innovative sports bra designed specifically for women who play cue sports (pool, billiards, and snooker). The concept has already been developed at a high level with sketches and product documentation. The next step is transforming it into professional engineering-quality CAD models suitable for prototype development and patent discussions. **Confidentiality (NDA) is required before concept details are shared.** --- # Project Scope This project includes developing two design concepts. ## Version 1 A manually adjustable sports bra featuring: * Internal support sling system * Concealed adjustment mechanism * Wearable beneath a standard athletic shirt * Functional construction concept * Production-aware design --- ## Version 2 An improved premium version featuring: * Refined adjustment mechanism * Enhanced ergonomics * Improved manufacturability * Premium performance features * Design-for-manufacturing considerations --- # Deliverables The selected freelancer will create: ### Professional 3D CAD Models * Front view * Rear view * Side views * Perspective renderings * Internal component layout ### Engineering Drawings * Exploded assembly views * Cross-sectional views * Numbered component callouts * Mechanism illustrations * Assembly sequence concepts ### Technical Apparel Documentation * Preliminary construction concepts * Fabric layer visualization * Internal support routing * Component placement * Adjustment mechanism integration ### High-Quality Renderings Photorealistic product renders including: * Front * Rear * Side * Lifestyle render * Transparent cutaway render * Exploded render --- # Skills Required * Industrial Design * Product Design * CAD Modeling * Soft Goods / Apparel Engineering * Sportswear Design * Mechanical Design * Product Visualization * Design for Manufacturing (DFM) Experience with products such as: * Sports bras * Performance apparel * Wearable products * Medical garments * Outdoor gear * Technical textiles is highly preferred. --- # Preferred Software One or more of: * SolidWorks * Fusion 360 * Rhino * CLO 3D * Browzwear * Marvelous Designer * KeyShot * Blender * Adobe Illustrator --- # Ideal Candidate I'm looking for someone who has experience designing products that combine **soft goods with mechanical components**, such as: * Technical apparel * Wearable devices * Medical supports * Athletic equipment Previous experience bringing products from concept to prototype is a strong advantage. --- # Future Opportunities This is intended to become a long-term collaboration. Future phases may include: * Prototype refinement * Manufacturing support * Production documentation * Packaging concepts * Additional product line development * Patent illustration support --- # To Apply Please include: * Portfolio of relevant work * Experience with apparel or wearable product design * CAD software used * Examples of engineering drawings or technical packs * Estimated timeline * Estimated project cost --- # Budget Open to proposals. Quality, experience, and the ability to create production-ready engineering documentation are more important than selecting the lowest bid. This project has the potential to evolve into a long-term product development partnership.
