Hardware Engineer / PCB Designer — 30 Min Paid Feedback Session
Budget: $10 – $30 USD
I’m the founder of PartPilot, a tool that automates BOM validation for hardware engineers. Right now engineers spend hours manually checking component availability, lifecycle status, and alternates across DigiKey, Mouser, and LCSC. I’m building something that does that in seconds.
I need experienced hardware engineers to try the tool on a real project and tell me honestly what works and what doesn’t.
Go to our website and search 3-5 part numbers from a real project you’ve worked on. Tell me if the alternates feel accurate, if the spec comparison makes sense, and what’s missing or wrong.
You can do this async in writing or we can jump on a 30 minute call — your choice.
Ideal background:
PCB designer or hardware engineer with real BOM experience. Someone who has actually dealt with component shortages, EOL parts, or alternate sourcing in a real project. Freelancers who work across multiple client projects preferred because you see this pain repeatedly.
What you get:
$25 for 30 minutes of honest feedback. No sales pitch. I genuinely want to know what’s broken.
Bonus:
If you find the tool useful I’ll give you free access to the full product when it launches.
