The On-Site CAD Guy
By Mark L. Casey | February 9, 2011
For decades companies have outsourced their printed circuit board (PCB) layout to contract design firms, also known as service bureaus. The Austin, TX area has many excellent design firms offering layout services on a variety of CAD tools like Cadence Allegro, Mentor Board Station, PCB Pads, Altium, etc.
A friend of mine, Cliff Rose, has a unique offering in the marketplace. Cliff is the “On-Site CAD Guy.” The phrase says it all. Cliff has his own CAD tools and travels to your site as necessary to work with your engineers on the layout project. Even though Cliff lives in the greater Austin area, his mobile setup (see photo below) allows him to travel far afield to meet customers needs.

Cliff is not only mobile, he is an experienced designer that has a strong resume and a great reputation. I suspect that more and more designers will follow his lead and take their abilities on the road, although I doubt many will be able to equal his ride! You can find Cliff at his website here.
