Computer Aided Design Automation Engineer Jobs in Oregon

What we need

Symbotic is seekinga highly skilled Senior AutoCAD Designer to join our Systems Layout & Structural Engineering Team. This senior technical role focuses on producing advanced 2D AutoCAD deliverables for complex steel structures, automation systems, and largescale robotics projects. While all drawings are produced in 2D AutoCAD, this role must work closely with our 3D Revit Team to ensure alignment between 2D layouts, 3D models, and overall project intent.

The ideal candidate brings deep AutoCADexpertise, strongproblem-solvingskills, and the ability to lead design efforts across multidisciplinary teams. This position also plays a key role in mentoring junior designers, influencing CAD standards, and driving quality and consistency across the organization.

What we do

The System Layout Engineering team is part of the Manufacturing and Supply Chain Organization, whichis responsible fordeveloping the customer's warehouse layout,facilitatingsupply chain execution, and delivering world-class support to the installation team. The System Layout Engineering team drives warehouse design excellence through the incorporation of internal and external customer feedback with a consistent focus on reducing costs for both material and project execution lead times.

What you'll do

• Lead the creation, modification, and management ofhighly complex2D AutoCAD drawingsfor steel structures, automation systems, and robotic layouts.

• Coordinate closely with the3D Revit Teamto ensure 2D deliverables accurately reflect 3D models, spatial constraints, and structural requirements.

• Interpret engineering specifications, architectural plans, and technical documents to produce complete andaccuratedesign packages.

• Own and enforce CAD standards, quality control processes, and best practices across the design team.

• Review,validate, and approve drawings created by junior designers to ensure accuracy, constructability, and compliance.

• Identifydesign risks early, propose solutions, and support technicaldecision makingfor largescale projects.

• Manage multiple complex projects simultaneously with minimal supervision,ensuringontimedelivery of all drawing packages.

• Mentor and train junior Designers in CAD techniques, standards, workflows, and project execution.
