Overview

Mercor seeks people who use SolidWorks Premium in their everyday work. You must have the software on your own Windows PC and be able to open it on day one, because Mercor does not supply licenses, virtual machines, or hardware. The work centers on 3D parts, assemblies, and simulation for mechanical and product design tasks. Your setup also needs to capture screenshots above 2.5 megapixels, whether through one high-resolution monitor or two displays merged into a single image.

What You'll Do7

  • Model and review 3D parts, assemblies, and simulation studies inside SolidWorks Premium.
  • Capture screenshots above 2.5 megapixels that show your CAD work in progress.
  • Use a qualifying monitor setup, either one high-resolution display or two monitors joined into one spanning image.
  • Work through mechanical and product design cases that reflect real engineering use.
  • Keep SolidWorks Premium installed on your own Windows computer and open it when the project starts.
  • Confirm your screen capture method meets Mercor's pixel requirement before submitting files.
  • Follow task instructions for part, assembly, or simulation scenarios.

Requirements8

  • You have SolidWorks Premium installed on your own Windows PC and can open it today.
  • You hold real-world experience in mechanical or product design, tooling design, or manufacturing engineering.
  • Your capture setup meets the 2.5-megapixel minimum.
  • For a single monitor, the display meets one of these minimums: 4:3 at 1826 x 1370, 16:9 at 2109 x 1186, 16:10 at 2000 x 1250, 3:2 at 1937 x 1291, or 21:9 at 2416 x 1036.
  • A MacBook Pro 14-inch at 3024 x 1964 or 16-inch at 3456 x 2234 built-in screen also works.
  • For a dual-monitor setup, you arrange two displays side by side and capture them as one spanning image.
  • Two 1920 x 1080+ monitors meet the mark; a single 1080p screen from the pair does not.
  • Mercor does not provide software licenses, virtual machines, or hardware.

Who Should Apply

Mechanical engineers, product designers, and tooling specialists who run SolidWorks Premium on Windows will fit this project best. The role suits people who can open the software today and capture clear, high-resolution screenshots from their own equipment. Candidates who need Mercor to supply a license, VM, or monitor will not pass the setup check. A common reason for rejection is a capture setup that falls below 2.5 megapixels, such as a lone 1080p screen or a dual-monitor pair saved as separate images. A second frequent miss is listing SolidWorks experience without showing hands-on work in parts, assemblies, or simulation.

Salary Insight

The engagement pays $45 to $55 per hour. For contract work that requires an existing SolidWorks Premium license and a qualified screen setup, this rate matches mid-level to senior CAD application roles. Designers with simulation or tooling experience tend to land at the higher end.
