U.S.-Based CAD Drafter / Metrology Specialist

We are seeking a U.S.-based CAD professional to receive physical samples, take accurate measurements, and prepare manufacturing drawings for slip-on adapters. We will provide detached firearm barrels as measurement references and a few existing 2D adapter drawings as templates. Only detached barrels will be supplied—not complete firearms, frames, or receivers. The drawings are for the adapters, not for manufacturing barrels. Scope: * Receive, safely handle, and return supplied samples. * Measure and document relevant exterior geometry. * Prepare adapter designs and drawings using our reference drawings and project requirements. * Identify missing information or inconsistencies before proceeding. * Deliver fully editable native CAD files with sketches, features, and design history retained—not just exported STEP files. * Provide fully dimensioned PDF/DWG manufacturing drawings with appropriate GD&T.

Requirements

* Located in the United States and able to receive and return samples domestically. * Hands-on precision-measurement experience and appropriate equipment. * Experience with CNC-machined components, fits, tolerances, and GD&T. * Fusion 360 preferred; please identify your primary CAD software and native file format. * Willing to sign our NDA before receiving project materials. We anticipate starting with a small paid assignment, with potential for ongoing work. Fixed pricing per component or batch is preferred, with scope and deliverables agreed before starting. Please include your U.S. location, measurement equipment, relevant drawing samples, CAD software, typical turnaround, and whether you offer project-based pricing
