Summary

We are seeking an experienced CAD designer who can create USPTO-compliant design patent drawings as well as the underlying 3D model (Fusion 360 or equivalent CAD software).

Prior experience creating design patent drawings (please provide portfolio or samples). Understanding of USPTO drawing requirements (black-and-white line art, shading standards, etc.). Ability to produce professional, clean, and accurate figures. Strong attention to detail, good communication, and ability to work from rough sketches. Nice to Have: Experience with utility patent drawings/specifications. Comfort creating exploded/sectional diagrams if helpful. Knowledge of the patent process. Deliverables: Draft model + draft figure(s) for client approval. Final USPTO-compliant drawing set (1–3 figures for provisional, more as needed for non-provisional). Editable source files + print-ready PDFs. How to Apply: Please provide: A brief note about your experience with patent illustrations. Example(s) of prior design patent drawings you have completed. Confirmation that you can work in Fusion 360 or compatible CAD.
