Paid, scoped reviews of real models, drawings and the change history behind them. Whether you design the parts, lead the product or ran engineering across many programs, there is a tier for you, and each one pays more.
Live roles you can apply to today, at the rates they pay now. Tier rates apply to scoped archive reviews.
See all engineering programsCreate challenging design problems across 3D assemblies, tolerances, and manufacturing.
Challenge AI on control theory, robotic systems, and real-world engineering tradeoffs.
Build expert evaluations of aerodynamics, flight systems, and aerospace design.
Review engineering calculations, drawings, and infrastructure design decisions.
Review technical reasoning in medical devices, biomechanics, and biological systems.
We place you by the responsibility you have actually held, not by title or years in the job. Each tier judges a larger share of an engineering archive, and pays accordingly.
Hands-on design judgment
$60–130/hr
Your experience. You model parts and assemblies, make the drawings, set tolerances and design for manufacture yourself.
What you review. Models, drawings, tolerance stacks and DFM calls, and the context a revision is missing.
Design and program strategy
$120–220/hr
Your experience. You owned a product or project through design reviews, change orders and revision decisions across the program.
What you review. Whether tests, reviews and change orders actually support the design decisions a program recorded.
Engineering portfolio judgment
$220–400/hr
Your experience. You set engineering direction across many programs, from platform choices to make-or-buy calls and where resources went.
What you review. The evidence behind portfolio, platform and make-or-buy choices, and how the programs in an archive relate.
Voided change orders and abandoned revisions count. The reasoning around them is often the most valuable part of an archive.
Each tier pays more because each judges a larger share of the record. Your rate is confirmed in writing before any brief.
A short, scoped review. You never see sensitive files before permissions are in place, and scope, fee and turnaround are agreed before you start.
A scoped set of real models, drawings and change records, inside your own discipline and level of judgment.
What justifies each revision, which trade-offs were chosen, and what context is missing.
Pursue, request more, or pass, with your reasons written down.
Help build a reusable rubric that judges engineering records the way an expert would.
Your discipline decides which archives you see. Your tier decides how much of each one you judge.
Consultants, fractional engineering leaders, former program leads and experienced design engineers. Employed engineers are welcome too, once outside work is cleared with your employer.
You get one primary tier, based on what you designed, released, approved or directed. Everything else you know becomes a tag on your profile, so you can still be matched to work outside your tier.
Your engineering area, the CAD and analysis tools you use, and how deep you go.
What you modeled, toleranced, released, reviewed or signed off yourself.
A single design decision or change order, described without confidential detail.
Availability, fee expectations, employer permission and any conflicts.
Apply in about ten minutes. We will match you to a tier and a first paid brief that fits your discipline.
