Senior Industrial Designer with 8+ years of experience and a Sofeast factory + lab in Shenzhen behind me. I design IoT enclosures, wearables, consumer electronics, and rugged outdoor products from sketch to injection molding ready CAD, with DFM considered from day one. The Sofeast difference (vs. solo freelancers): I’m not designing in a vacuum. Every CAD file I deliver is pressure tested against real factory constraints by Sofeast’s mechanical engineers, mold makers, and QA team. That means fewer surprises, smoother tooling feedback, and fewer revision rounds once production starts. What I design: • IoT devices & wearables - compact enclosures, IP67/IP68 sealing, battery + PCB integration, snag free outdoor geometry, sensor pass throughs • Consumer electronics - earbuds, speakers, smart home products, beauty devices • Rugged, outdoor, livestock & medical related devices - drop resistant, UV stable, electrode integration • Furniture & sports equipment - ergonomic, multi material, fabrication friendly • Home goods, kitchen, pet products, and broader industrial design projects What I deliver: • Concept sketches & ideation • 3D CAD (SolidWorks, Rhinoceros, Fusion 360) - parametric and easy to iterate • Production ready STEP files, 2D technical drawings, GD&T • DFM support - wall thickness, draft angles, gating, sink mark risk, material selection (ABS, PC, PP, POM, TPU) • Photorealistic renders (KeyShot, Vizcom, Midjourney) for pitches, listings, and crowdfunding • Tooling consultation with direct communication with Chinese mold makers Why this matters when your design reaches manufacturing: • Wall thickness, draft angle, and gate placement are reviewed BEFORE tooling investment • Material recommendations are based on real manufacturing processes, not only datasheets • When factories push back on features or geometry, our bilingual team can communicate directly and solve issues faster Manufacturing experience: Plastic injection molding, sheet metal, CNC wood fabrication, die cut packaging, and more. Stats: 100% Job Success Top Rated Plus $100K+ earned on Upwork 5,299 Sofeast agency hours 179 completed jobs Tools: SolidWorks, Rhinoceros 3D, Fusion 360, KeyShot, Vizcom, Midjourney, Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, AI tools Recent work: Smart wearables, ergonomic phone grips, aroma diffusers, earbuds + charging cases, outdoor cooking products, retrofit lighting, and custom consumer electronics enclosures. If you have an idea, a half finished CAD, or a prototype that needs to survive injection molding, I’d love to take a look.

Hi, I’m Landon 👋 I specialize in turning ideas into real, physical products through CAD modeling, 3D printing, CNC machining, and laser fabrication. With years of hands-on experience in Shapr3D, additive manufacturing, and CNC shop work, I provide design solutions that are not just beautiful on screen—but also practical, functional, and ready for production. Whether you’re an inventor, startup, or small business, I can help you: • Create CAD models (STEP, STL, IGES, DXF) from sketches or concepts • Design 3D print–ready prototypes for testing or production • Prepare CNC-ready files and laser cut layouts • Develop custom fixtures, enclosures, and product housings • Generate renderings, exploded views, and assembly diagrams for marketing or investor presentations I know what it takes to move a design from concept → prototype → manufacturing, and I work closely with clients to refine designs for durability, cost efficiency, and visual appeal. Why work with me? ✅ Real-world fabrication background (not just software) ✅ Clear communication and fast turnaround ✅ Production-ready deliverables tailored to your needs ✅ Flexible: from one-off prototypes to full product design packages If you have an idea you want to bring to life—or a product that needs a professional, manufacturable design—let’s make it real.

I design real products that get manufactured - not just 3D models. Manufacturing-ready CAD, prototyping, and Design for Manufacturing (DFM)-driven product development for industrial and consumer products. I’m an Engineer and Industrial Product Designer focused on manufacturing-driven product development. My background spans automotive, industrial, and consumer products, where I’ve worked as a Product Developer, Designer, and Technical Lead in production-oriented environments. I don’t approach projects as isolated design tasks. I approach them as systems that must survive prototyping, manufacturing, assembly, cost pressure, and real-world use. 📐 What You Can Expect Working With Me: - Clear, structured CAD suitable for iteration and production - Design decisions informed by manufacturing reality - Practical communication with engineers, suppliers, and manufacturers - Honest feasibility feedback (go / no-go when needed) - Designs meant to be tested, not just rendered 📐 Core Capabilities: - 3D CAD modeling (Siemens NX) - 2D technical drawings (AutoCAD Professional) - CNC, laser cutting, and sheet metal preparation - Injection molding–ready part design - Fixture, bracket, and assembly design - BOM creation and production planning support - Reverse engineering and scan-based modeling 📐 Injection Mold & Manufacturing Experience I have hands-on experience designing plastic injection molds and mold-ready parts, including projects for automotive and food-related products. ⚙️ I’m familiar with: - Injection molding–ready design, Core / cavity logic - Draft angles & wall thickness optimization - Parting lines and shut-off surfaces - Shrinkage and material behavior - Gate concepts (hot runner, valve gate) - Collaboration with mold makers and CNC shops - Design for Assembly (DFA), production validation - Engineering-driven product development - Long-term product roadmap support My focus is always on tool longevity, cycle time, surface quality, and cost efficiency. 📏 Typical Projects I Work On: - Automotive accessories and aftermarket products - Mechanically complex plastic or metal parts - Prototyping-heavy product development - Production validation before tooling - Redesigns for cost reduction or manufacturability - CAD clean-up and production conversion 📌 Primary CAD Tool: Siemens NX, AutoCAD and Geomagic Design X I work primarily in Siemens NX, which is widely used in high-end automotive and industrial manufacturing. I can deliver clean, fully editable STEP / STL / Parasolid files, and I regularly convert and work with SolidWorks, Fusion 360, Rhino, SketchUp, and scan-based data. If you use SolidWorks or another CAD system, this is not a limitation — deliverables are always production-ready and compatible. 📌 If you need more than a modeler—someone who understands how products are actually built and scaled—I can support your project from concept to production readiness.
