โ Muhammad and his team did an absolutely fantastic job. They are the real deal. Not only did they complete everything I asked for to build me a very complicated machine, they constantly added in their own innovations and modifications to improve the performance of the device. It was extremely easy to work with them, and they are extremely professional and true experts in their fields. I proposed many changes during the development of the product, and they were able to accommodate my requests and provide valuable insight if changes werenโt needed or were too costly. They are backed by an engineering firm with specialists in so many fields, so we never needed to outsource work to an outside firm. Their firm felt like a one-stop shop that had all the resources needed to build a complicated mechanical product. I really could not imagine that many other engineer freelancers would have access to the resources needed to build my machine, so I am very grateful I found Muhammad instead of wasting my time and money with other freelancers. Do not hesitate to hire him. โ

Hi ๐๐ฝ I'm Maria, a Fashion & Apparel Tech Pack Designer with 12+ years of experience developing 50+ products across activewear, golf, loungewear and streetwear. From concept to market-ready product, I help Growing brands turn a raw idea into a REAL, sellable collection. If you're building a luxury or high quality line and you want a partner who is just as committed to seeing your collection become a real, wearable product as you are, you're in the right place.
With a business mindset, I specialize in exactly this: production ready tech packs for High-End brands that my efficient, trusted factory partners can bring to life, while I stay hands on with you through every step of development. No handing off a sketch and disappearing, I'm with you until it's actually made.
With 12+ years of experience working primarily with the EU & US market, I've built my career around one thing: helping founders launch collections that actually make it to production quickly, on time and on budget.
I don't just sketch pretty flats. I build the full technical foundation, specs, construction notes, BOM, and grading, so your manufacturer has everything they need from day one and you're not left guessing.
What I bring to your brand:
โ GREAT Collections optimized for a Strategic Development & Launch โ Factory ready tech packs: detailed specs, measurements, construction notes, BOM, and colorways โ Sampling management: fit comments, revisions, quality checkpoints, and direct factory communication โ Factory sourcing and alignment: ethical and sustainable options with a smooth handoff โ Lead time and production planning: milestones, timelines, and a realistic launch date
You don't need to keep interviewing designers or piecing together advice from five different freelancers. As a Tech Pack Designer who has worked across production partners in the US, China, and Europe, I bring the technical fluency, the factory relationships, and the process discipline to take your luxury activewear or streetwear concept from first sketch to bulk production, without the wasted samples, missed deadlines, or budget surprises that come from working with someone who understands design but not manufacturing.
This is what past clients say about working with me =)
โญโญโญโญโญ "Maria is super attentive and a great person to work with. She cares about your project and gives it her all. Will recommend working with her for your fashion and garment sample needs."
โญโญโญโญโญ "Maria has amazing attention to detail and will make sure you're satisfied before completing the contract!"
โญโญโญโญโญ "Maria delivered an outstanding apparel tech pack, accurate, detailed, and production ready. Her skills, quality of work, and attention to detail were exceptional. She was always available, gave prompt feedback, met deadlines ahead of schedule, and communicated clearly throughout. A true professional and a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend and look forward to working with her again."
If you're serious about launching a Activewear Collection that's actually ready for production, message me with your idea or your biggest challenge right now, and I'll tell you honestly what it will take to get it made. Let's build something real ๐ค
Stay healthy!
Maria

The expensive problems in product development rarely look serious in a render. They appear later, when parts do not assemble correctly, tolerances stack up, seals fail, tooling costs rise, or a promising prototype cannot be manufactured consistently.
We are a mechanical design and product development team focused on preventing those problems early. We turn concepts, existing prototypes, sketches, and incomplete CAD into practical, manufacturing-ready products with clear engineering logic behind every important decision.
Our work is centered on mechanical products, enclosures, mechanisms, injection-molded plastic parts, sheet-metal products, CNC components, and multi-part assemblies. Depending on the project, we support product architecture, SolidWorks CAD, interface and tolerance design, material and manufacturing-process selection, DFM/DFA, engineering drawings, BOMs, prototype preparation, and targeted FEA when it is needed to validate a real design decision.
Recent completed projects include an environmental sensor enclosure developed around an existing PCB, connectors, sealing, and serviceability requirements; a 1-liter PET bottle indexing feature designed around labeling and production constraints; and a technical engineering review of a premium espresso machine to identify mechanical, assembly, service, and manufacturing risks before the next development stage.
Clients do not work with us simply to receive a 3D model. They work with us to make better decisions before committing money to prototypes, tooling, or production. We identify missing requirements, weak interfaces, likely failure points, and manufacturing conflicts early, then compare practical options against performance, cost, assembly, maintenance, and supplier capability.
Each project has one clear communication path, while the appropriate specialists are involved only where their expertise adds value. This gives you the depth of a coordinated engineering team without the confusion of managing several disconnected freelancers.
We are best suited to serious product-development projects where the design must do more than look convincing. It must be buildable, testable, serviceable, and ready for the next real step.
Share your current concept, CAD files, sketches, prototype photos, and manufacturing goals. We will help you define the safest and most practical route from the current stage to a production-ready design.

Mechanical Design Engineer | DFM, CNC & Production Drawings
Kyiv, Ukraine

Good mechanical design doesn't end with a finished CAD model. It starts with how the part will actually be made. I design production-ready parts, assemblies and technical drawings with DFM, CNC machining, tolerances and real-world manufacturing in mind. Feel free to contact me.
ABOUT ME:
Iโm a Mechanical Design Engineer with over 16 years of hands-on experience in mechanical design, CNC machining, and manufacturing. I create production-ready parts, assemblies, mechanisms, and technical drawings for real-world manufacturing.
I hold a mechanical engineering degree and operate a family-run CNC workshop in Kyiv, Ukraine, where I design, prototype, machine, assemble, and validate functional mechanical parts and assemblies. This practical manufacturing experience helps me make engineering decisions based not only on CAD geometry, but also on tooling access, tolerances, assembly requirements, material selection, production costs, and long-term reliability.
My background combines Mechanical Design, Design for Manufacturing (DFM), CNC programming, reverse engineering, prototyping, technical documentation, GD&T, fits and tolerances, and production optimization. I work primarily in Fusion 360 for both design and manufacturing workflows.
I understand the full product development cycle: engineering design, prototyping, testing, BOM creation, technical documentation, manufacturing planning, and cost-effective production.
I design and build real, functional products โ and apply that mindset to every engineering challenge.
Whether you need a single manufacturing drawing, a production-ready CAD model, a mechanical assembly, a manufacturable redesign, or ongoing engineering support, I focus on delivering practical, reliable, and manufacturing-ready solutions.
I value long-term collaborations, but Iโm also available for focused standalone tasks such as mechanical design, production drawings, reverse engineering, and manufacturing documentation.
WHAT I OFFER:
I specialize in manufacturing-ready mechanical design, functional assemblies, production drawings, and engineering support, including:
โ Mechanical Design of parts, assemblies, and mechanisms.
โ Production-ready CAD models and technical drawings for CNC machining, fabrication, and manufacturing.
โ Design for Manufacturing (DFM) to improve manufacturability, reduce production costs, and simplify assembly.
โ GD&T, fits, tolerances, and engineering documentation for reliable production and assembly.
โ Reverse Engineering of existing parts, products, and assemblies.
โ Manufacturing support, CNC-oriented design, tooling, fixturing, and production optimization.
โ Prototyping and product development support from concept through production.
โ Long-term engineering collaboration for manufacturers, startups, and product development teams.
Additional Manufacturing & Engineering Support:
I also provide CNC machining services and manufacturing support for projects that require more than CAD design alone. This includes production-ready designs, manufacturing drawings for suppliers, DFM analysis and optimization, tolerance stack-up analysis, BOM creation for manufacturing, and supplier-ready documentation. I can also provide rapid prototyping support, CNC-ready geometry, and practical assistance throughout the transition from engineering design to manufacturing.
Final Deliverables May Include:
โ Production-ready 3D CAD models (Fusion 360 source files, .f3d, .f3z, .STEP, .IGES, .STL, .OBJ, and other required formats).
โ Manufacturing drawings, production drawings, assembly drawings, fabrication drawings, and technical documentation prepared for CNC machining, fabrication, assembly, and production.
โ Engineering drawings with GD&T, fits and tolerances, surface finish requirements, technical notes, section views, exploded views, and detailed manufacturing annotations.
โ Bills of Materials (BOMs), assembly documentation, manufacturing documentation, production documentation, and sourcing-ready deliverables.
โ CAM-ready geometry, Fusion 360 CAM files, CNC milling toolpaths, and manufacturing-ready solid models or surface geometry.
โ Deliverables prepared for prototyping, supplier communication, manufacturing, inspection, assembly, and production workflows.
Tools & Capabilities
Fusion 360 CAD / CAM (licensed)
CNC milling center (x1)
In-house prototyping capabilities
Precision measuring instruments
My Work Ethic
I take responsibility for deadlines, communication, and the outcome
I value long-term collaboration over one-time gigs
I communicate clearly about feasibility and donโt overpromise
I provide clear technical reasoning, not just opinions
I start working promptly and keep clients informed
I aim to build lasting relationships with professionals who value quality
Most of my work is protected under NDAs, so my public portfolio is limited. If you need a DFM review, production-ready design, or manufacturing drawings, feel free to contact me โ I'm always open to collaboration.
