Footwear Sole & Snap-Lock System – 2D/3D CAD Design for Mold Manufacturing Ended

About the job

We are developing an innovative footwear concept under our brand Chiqsol. The design requires a modular sole system with explicit components and a snap-fit locking mechanism.

We are seeking a skilled mechanical/product design engineer with experience in plastic part design, snap-fit/locking systems, and mold-ready CAD models.

The project requires:
1. Detailed 2D technical drawings for:
• Outsole
• Midsole
• Insole
• Strap groove mechanism
2. 3D CAD models (SolidWorks / CATIA / AutoCAD / Fusion 360) with:
• Explicit detailing of snap-fit grooves and locking mechanism
• Proper tolerance and fit considerations for mold manufacturing
• Assembly visualization of all components
3. Deliverables:
• Manufacturing-ready files for mold creation (STEP/IGES/SolidWorks formats preferred)
• Exploded view for manufacturer reference

Requirements:
• Prior experience in plastic product design and snap-fit part engineering
• Knowledge of mold manufacturing constraints
• Ability to deliver accurate 2D + 3D drawings that can be used directly for prototyping and tooling
• Experience in footwear or consumer product design is a plus



Timeline:
• 10–14 working days for first complete draft
• 1–2 revision cycles based on feedback

Please share:
• Examples of past work (especially snap-fit or modular plastic part projects)
• Tools/software you use
• Estimated timeline & cost
