Rahul P.
Senior Mechanical Design Engineer | SolidWorks | Creo | Manufacturing
Need to turn a sketch, concept, existing part, or idea into a manufacturable product? I help companies turn early-stage concepts and existing designs into practical 3D CAD models and production-ready manufacturing drawings. I’m a Mechanical Design Engineer with 13+ years of experience in product development, industrial equipment, sheet metal, fabrication, reverse engineering and manufacturing documentation. My focus is not simply creating a CAD model. I design with manufacturing, assembly, tolerances, materials and fabrication processes in mind. What I can help you with * Concept/sketch → 3D CAD model * Existing part/STEP/PDF → editable CAD * Reverse engineering and design reconstruction * Sheet-metal parts and enclosures * Weldments and fabricated structures * Mechanical assemblies * Manufacturing & fabrication drawings * BOM and assembly documentation * GD&T and practical tolerancing * DXF/flat patterns for fabrication * Design-for-manufacturing (DFM) improvements * Prototype and product-development support Manufacturing experience I have worked on industrial and heavy-equipment products involving: * Sheet metal and welded fabrication * CNC-machined components * Cast components * Industrial equipment * Off-highway/construction machinery * Radiators and intercoolers * Mechanical assemblies and fabricated structures This experience helps me identify practical manufacturing issues early—before a design reaches the shop floor. Software SolidWorks | Creo Parametric | Solid Edge | AutoCAD I can work from anything from a rough hand sketch or reference photos to existing STEP/IGES/PDF files and develop the design into structured, manufacturable CAD documentation. What you can expect Concept → CAD → Manufacturing Review → Production Drawings → Fabrication/Manufacturing Support Whether you need a single component, a complete assembly, or ongoing mechanical design support, I can work independently and communicate clearly throughout the process. If you have a sketch, existing part, reference file, or unfinished design, send it to me. I can review the requirements and suggest a practical approach before we start.
