About the position

The CAD Drafter will utilize computer-aided design (CAD) software to produce detailed and precise technical drawings, schematics, and blueprints for a variety of projects. This position requires a solid understanding of design principles, engineering standards, and construction processes. The CAD Drafter will work closely with engineers, architects, and project managers to ensure that all drafting tasks are completed accurately and on time. The role is essential in translating project specifications into visual representations that guide the construction and engineering processes. In this position, the CAD Drafter will be responsible for creating both 2D and 3D technical drawings based on the specifications provided by engineers, architects, or designers. Collaboration is a key aspect of this role, as the drafter will need to communicate effectively with various stakeholders to understand project requirements and incorporate their feedback into the designs. Additionally, the CAD Drafter will prepare and revise detailed drawings, layouts, and schematics, ensuring that all documentation is accurate and up to date. Proficiency in CAD software such as AutoCAD, SolidWorks, or Revit is crucial for this role, as the drafter will rely on these tools to produce high-quality designs. Quality control is another important responsibility, as the CAD Drafter must ensure that all drawings comply with relevant industry standards, codes, and regulations. The role also involves maintaining organized project files, including design revisions and final versions, and preparing detailed material lists and specifications to accompany the drawings. Occasionally, the CAD Drafter may need to visit project sites to gather information and verify measurements, which requires good communication skills to coordinate with team members and external parties to resolve any design issues and ensure alignment with project goals.
