✨ Stuck Between "Genius Idea" and "How Do I Manufacture This?" I Can Help. ✨ Product development is confusing. Patents ARE overwhelming. And new freelancers will ghost you mid-project with a nonfunctional prototype that's not manufacturable. My Stats: Senior Industrial Designer | 14+ Years | $50M+ in Client Revenue | $756K+ Raised on Kickstarter | $1.5 Million ecommerce brand co-founder. Got a brilliant idea? I turn your napkin sketches into money-making products fast while you avoid the $100K+ mistakes I've already seen (and fixed) a hundred times. I've personally launched my own products too, so I know the exact road you're headed on from idea all the way to a customer holding something they love and buying again. Not happy with the first draft? I'll keep designing until you love it. 🚀 Real Results That Speak for Themselves ✦ 1 Billion social views. ✦ 137+ products designed, developed, and launched to market ✦ $100M+ in total revenue generated for product-based businesses ✦ $756K+ raised on my personal Kickstarter product launch ✦ $10M+ raised on client Kickstarter product launches ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 47+ 5-star reviews from founders who've successfully launched "Jake's a FORCE. He's helped us raise over $756K+ on Kickstarter, developed all the SeatMate products, Kickstarter funnels, Facebook Ads and handled supplier sourcing and negotiations." —Andrew Mueller, CEO SeatMate Here's what you get ✦ End-to-end product design & development.

When we work together, you don't just have someone who knows how to create the files. You have someone who's already lived the full journey, collected notes from inside Fortune 500 brands, built a million-dollar product of their own, and knows every pitfall waiting between here and launch day. ✅ Ready to Launch Your Product? Whether you're an aspiring entrepreneur with a napkin sketch or a brand ready to scale, I've got the experience and resources to make it happen. Send me a message or invite me to your project. Nothing makes me happier than to help someone create and launch their product. Product design and development is my lifelong obsession disguised as a career. :) Let's build something together. - Jake Singer Keywords: Industrial Design, Product Development, CAD Modeling, 3D Rendering, Prototyping, Manufacturing Strategy, Packaging Design, Kickstarter, Product Launch, Consumer Products, Vendor Sourcing, SolidWorks, Product Visualization

I run Hattendorf Design & Solutions, a small manufacturing-focused design consultancy specializing in CAD, tooling, and design-for-manufacture. My work sits at the intersection of engineering design and the shop floor—helping clients turn concepts, legacy parts, or problem designs into manufacturable, production-ready solutions. I don’t just model parts to look good on screen. I design them to survive machining, molding, casting, inspection, and assembly. What I Do Best ✔ Production-Ready CAD & Drawings Parametric CAD models and clear manufacturing drawings built for real-world tolerances and processes. (SolidWorks, AutoCAD, Creo) ✔ Tooling & Mold Design Design support for: Casting tooling and patterns Injection and permanent molds Fixtures and manufacturing aids ✔ DFM & Manufacturability Reviews Identify tolerance risks, draft issues, parting problems, and cost drivers before they hit the shop. ✔ Reverse Engineering & Reconstruction Turn scans, physical parts, or incomplete data into clean, editable CAD ready for production and inspection. ✔ Prototyping Support 3D printing and validation workflows to de-risk designs prior to tooling or release. Recent Project Experience Designed tooling and molds for aluminum and polymer components, reducing lead times and rework ✔Reconstructed legacy parts and tooling into modern parametric CAD for repeatable production Supported machine shops and foundries with designs meeting strict tolerance, inspection, and DFM requirements ✔Delivered drawings and models that integrate smoothly into CNC, QC, and inspection workflows My Background I’m a Design Engineer with 3+ years of hands-on experience supporting casting, molding, and machining environments. I’m completing my degree in Mechatronics Engineering, with emphasis on mechanical design, manufacturing processes, and quality systems. This combination lets me bridge the gap between: Engineering intent Manufacturing reality Cost, lead time, and quality constraints How I Work Clear scope and deliverables Practical, production-aware design decisions Clean files, revision control, and documentation Responsive communication and realistic timelines If you need manufacturable designs, tooling support, or a technical partner who understands how parts actually get made, I’d be glad to help.
