About SoftAge
SoftAge partners with leading global AI research labs and product teams to build and train next-generation autonomous agents and foundation models. Our work powers advanced digital assistants, engineering copilots, and task-completing AI systems across desktop, web, and mobile platforms.
We operate at the intersection of engineering expertise and AI research, translating real-world professional workflows into high-quality training data for state-of-the-art models.
Role Overview
We are hiring Mechanical and Industrial Design Engineers with hands-on CAD experience to contribute to a high-impact AI training initiative for a global client. This role is suited for engineers who have spent time doing real design work and can clearly express design intent through structured, well-executed workflows.
Key Responsibilities
- Execute end-to-end mechanical and/or industrial design tasks using CAD tools such as Fusion 360, SolidWorks, CATIA, Creo, or equivalent
- Create, modify, and refine 3D models with clear design intent and logical feature structure
- Record design workflows, decisions, and actions in a structured format suitable for AI training
- Review existing CAD models and provide technical, functional, or aesthetic feedback when required
- Follow detailed task specifications and collaborate closely with internal leads and client teams
- Maintain high standards of process quality, correctness, and repeatability
Required Qualifications
- Bachelor’s/Master’s/Doctorate degree in Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Design, or related fields
- 1–3 years of hands-on industry experience in core mechanical / product design roles
- Strong working knowledge of at least one professional CAD tool:
- Fusion 360, SolidWorks, CATIA, Creo, or similar
Demonstrated ability to:
- Build parametric models thoughtfully
- Structure sketches and features cleanly
- Make and justify design decisions
- Good communication skills and ability to follow structured, technical workflows
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience working on complex assemblies or production-oriented designs
- Exposure to design documentation, design reviews, or manufacturing constraints
- Prior experience in AI data creation, annotation, or tooling-heavy environments (nice to have, not mandatory)
- Candidates from top-tier engineering institutes (NIRF-ranked) will be given preference
Additional Information
This is an on-site, project-based role. Selected candidates must sign a confidentiality and invention assignment agreement approved by the client. Work quality, design clarity, and process adherence will be closely monitored and audited
