PTC Creo Parametric Specialist

In this hourly, remote contractor role, you will work as a PTC Creo Parametric Specialist (SME) to create realistic, challenging computer-based tasks using PTC Creo Parametric and related mechanical engineering and product development workflows.

You will develop practical engineering design tasks, document them clearly in SuperAnnotate, prepare the necessary software and project files, and record yourself executing the tasks on your computer.

Tasks may include creating parametric parts, modifying engineering models, managing assemblies, configuring dimensions and constraints, working with feature trees, sheet metal design, engineering drawings, design variants, and preparing CAD files for manufacturing.

This role is particularly relevant to professionals in mechanical engineering, industrial engineering, aerospace engineering, manufacturing, and product development.

This role is with SME Careers, a fast-growing AI Data Services company and subsidiary of SuperAnnotate, delivering training data for many of the world's largest AI companies and foundation-model labs. Your Creo expertise will help improve advanced AI models by demonstrating real-world mechanical design and parametric CAD workflows.

Key responsibilities

• Create realistic Creo tasks: Develop practical, challenging engineering and parametric CAD tasks and document them in SuperAnnotate.
• Prepare the work environment: Ensure Creo, project files, required assemblies, part models, dependencies, and drawing templates are ready before recording.
• Record task execution: Capture yourself completing Creo tasks on your computer, including modeling operations, design revisions, and validation steps.
• Demonstrate professional CAD use: Perform workflows involving parametric parts, assemblies, constraints, family tables, design modifications, drawings, and engineering documentation.
• Document task context: Identify the design objective, relevant dimensions, model references, engineering constraints, and expected outcome.
• Validate technical work: Check feature regeneration, model geometry, constraints, dimensional consistency, and assembly integrity.
• Maintain submission quality: Ensure recordings and supporting files are complete and compliant with project instructions.

Your profile

• 3+ years of professional experience using PTC Creo Parametric for mechanical engineering, industrial design, aerospace, manufacturing, or product development.
• Strong proficiency in PTC Creo Parametric, including sketching, constraints, feature-based modeling, assemblies, drawing creation, dimensions, and parametric design.
• Professional background in mechanical engineering, aerospace engineering, industrial engineering, product design, or related technical fields is preferred.
• Strong understanding of design intent, feature dependencies, model regeneration, geometric constraints, assembly references, and engineering tolerances.
• Experience with Creo workflows such as part modeling, assembly constraints, patterns, family tables, sheet metal, surface modeling, or engineering drawing creation.
• Ability to diagnose and resolve model regeneration errors, broken references, unstable features, or assembly constraints.
• Ability to develop realistic and challenging Creo tasks reflecting professional design, product development, and manufacturing requirements.
• Comfortable preparing Creo projects, models, assemblies, dependencies, templates, and technical reference files before recording.
• A shareable professional portfolio is required, demonstrating mechanical parts, parametric models, assemblies, engineering drawings, or product design projects.
• Strong attention to detail when working with dimensions, tolerances, feature trees, mating relationships, clearances, and technical drawing standards.
• Comfortable using a computer, managing technical CAD files, and recording professional modeling workflows.
• Reliable, self-directed, and capable of delivering work independently in a remote contractor environment.
• English proficiency is not mandatory. Applicants from all language backgrounds are welcome.
• Experience with engineering tutorials, CAD workflow documentation, technical demonstrations, or AI data training is a plus.
