I have around 18 years as a mechanical engineer. I started out doing CAD design for a medical device company. I then spent a few years in medical devices as a mechanical engineer. For the last 12 years, I have been the sole mechanical engineer doing R&D and new product design at a small company. I design parts and assemblies in sheet metal, CNC-routed plastic, as well as injection-molded plastic. I also have done some UX/UI and web design in creating online customer portals and websites as well as numerous print and digital marketing materials (graphics and copy).
My wife and I are trying to figure out how to have more time at home and potentially move out of the suburbs and get some land while homeschooling our kids, one of whom is autistic (the main reason why we need more time at home).
What are some potential jobs I should be looking for in my search? Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
