Meet Evan Thomas: Freelance Product Design & CAD Specialist in Auckland

With over 12 years of experience working for some of NZ’s top consultancies and brands, I support clients from early-stage concept through to production ready CAD and manufacturing handoff.

​

Whether you're developing smart devices, tools, or performance hardware, I bring a hands-on, end to end approach that combines clean, functional design with real world manufacturing expertise including injection molding, sheet metal, rapid prototyping, and DFM.

​

I specialize in:

​

•   Concept design and CAD modelling (SolidWorks)

•   Prototyping and mechanical detailing

•   Design for Manufacture and Assembly

•   Supplier ready documentation and BOMs

•   On demand 3D printing and laser cutting

​

My professional setup includes the latest SolidWorks, KeyShot, in-house SLA and FDM 3D printers, and a secure remote workflow. This allows fast turnaround, clear communication, and professional fast results.

​

I work best with funded startups and established businesses looking for agile product development support without the overhead of a full time hire. If you're planning a product launch, scaling up R&D, or need help getting your idea over the line, let’s talk.
