Mini Case Studies

Aerospace Startup Scales Fast

A venture-backed aerospace startup had to **Hire CAD engineers** within days to hit a flight-test deadline. Our augmented team integrated in 24 hours, handled advanced surface modelling, and collaborated through secure VPN. Within a week, new airframe designs were released. The project met FAA review two months early, cutting burn rate. Outcome: **37 % faster design iteration** and **$480K cost avoidance** versus legacy vendors.

Medical Device Speed-Up

A U.S. Class II medical device firm struggled to **Hire CAD engineers** versed in ISO 13485 documentation. Our 5-person cell delivered compliant drawings, automated BOM exports, and validated GD&T. The augmented team reduced internal review loops from five to two. Result: **52 % cycle-time cut** and FDA submission completed six weeks early.

Industrial Automation Refresh

A Fortune 500 automation vendor needed to **Hire CAD engineers** to convert 12,000 legacy 2D drawings to 3D models while production ran. Our blended on-shore/off-shore squad worked in staggered shifts, using a secure PDM vault. In four months the library was fully modernized, enabling digital twin simulations. KPI: **68 % reduction** in field-retrofit errors and ROI in 7.5 months.

Why outstaff instead of hiring direct?
• Slash hiring time from months to days.
• Pay only for productive hours; no payroll tax, no benefits.
• Instant scalability—add or release CAD capacity as workloads change.
• Access niche skills like FEA, BIM, and GD&T on-demand.
• Zero administrative overhead; smartbrain.io manages contracts, compliance, and IP security.
• Risk-free trial period and immediate replacement guarantee.

Industries We Serve

Automotive Design

Hire CAD engineers for vehicle body, chassis, and interior surfacing. Outstaffed experts deliver rapid 3D modelling, crash-study iterations, and integration with PLM systems, helping OEMs compress model-year timelines while protecting IP under airtight NDAs.

Aerospace & Defense

Outstaffing CAD developers lets primes handle stress-critical components, weight optimisation, and MIL-STD documentation without expanding payroll. Engineers work across time zones, feeding certified drawings to manufacturing before dawn in your HQ.

Architecture & BIM

Remote CAD talent produces Revit families, clash detection, and LOD 400 models. Firms scale resources per project phase, lowering overhead while keeping every deliverable inside a secure CDE.

Medical Devices

Regulated companies tap pre-vetted CAD experts skilled in ISO 13485 traceability, sterilisation clearances, and small-tolerance plastic part design, accelerating FDA submissions without risking compliance.

Industrial Machinery

Augmented teams modernise legacy 2D drawings, generate exploded views, and apply GD&T so manufacturers can launch IoT-enabled equipment faster, all with guaranteed IP protection.

Renewable Energy

Wind-turbine and solar-tracker providers outstaff skilled CAD engineers to iterate blade geometries, optimise structural frames, and prepare fabrication packs that pass bankability audits.

Consumer Electronics

Hire remote CAD experts to miniaturise enclosures, design heat sinks, and align with DFM/DFX goals, cutting prototyping loops and hitting launch windows.

Construction Tech

Scale up CAD drafting for steel-detailing, shop drawings, and as-built models during peak bid seasons, then scale down when workloads stabilise—pay only for live hours.

Telecom Equipment

Outstaffed CAD specialists create high-precision sheet-metal chassis, manage revision control, and integrate ECAD-to-MCAD workflows, reducing costly ECO rework.

FAQs

What is the cost to hire CAD developers through smartbrain.io?

Pricing starts with a simple hourly model. You pay only for productive engineering hours—no recruitment fees, benefits, or hidden mark-ups. Rates vary by seniority and toolset (e.g., SolidWorks vs. CATIA), but customers typically save 25-40 % versus traditional in-house hiring. Because you can Hire CAD engineers on-demand, budgets stay predictable and scalable. Volume discounts apply for multi-seat engagements, and our two-week risk-free trial means you never pay for mismatched talent.

How do you keep our intellectual property secure with remote CAD staff?

smartbrain.io enforces enterprise-grade security: individual VPNs, SSO, device attestation, and role-based PDM access. NDAs and work-for-hire clauses assign all CAD outputs to your company. We host code and drawings on isolated servers when requested, and engineers operate under U.S. or EU IP laws. Rigorous audits ensure compliance, letting you enjoy the speed of outstaffing without compromising sensitive designs.

Will time-zone differences slow collaboration?

No. We align at least 4 overlapping hours with your HQ, schedule daily stand-ups, and provide bilingual project managers. Many clients choose a follow-the-sun model where overnight progress appears each morning. The approach accelerates throughput while preserving real-time communication windows.

What contract terms are available for outstaffed CAD talent?

Contracts are monthly, quarterly, or yearly with 14-day cancellation. Scale headcount up or down at will—ideal for fluctuating workloads. All agreements include IP transfer, non-compete, and replacement guarantee clauses so you can Hire CAD engineers risk-free.

How are candidates vetted before they reach us?

Each engineer passes a 5-step process: CV screen, live technical interview, proprietary CAD assessment, real-world project simulation, and soft-skills evaluation. Only the top 3 % join our pool, ensuring you see pre-vetted professionals, not resumes.

What if an engineer isn’t a fit after onboarding?

Notify us within the first two weeks and we replace the engineer at no cost, typically within 48 hours. Our success team monitors KPIs and can swap talent or add capacity anytime, ensuring uninterrupted project momentum.

How fast can we start after signing?

Most clients interview candidates within two business days and kick-off within one. That means you can Hire CAD engineers and see deliverables inside the same week—far faster than traditional recruiting cycles that stretch for months.
