You'll support the design and documentation of water, wastewater, and civil infrastructure projects, working alongside engineers and project managers to deliver accurate, detailed drawings that align with both client and Tetra Tech standards.
This position offers exposure to a variety of project types - from pipelines and site grading to drainage and roadway improvements - giving you the opportunity to apply your technical skills in AutoCAD Civil 3D while contributing to impactful community projects.
Essential Functions:
  • Collaborate with Project Managers and Engineers to set up, prepare, and manage construction drawings.
  • Prepare dimensional drawings and modify base files using AutoCAD Civil 3D.
  • Revise and update existing drawings to reflect design changes.
  • Create and maintain electronic file structures and naming conventions in accordance with company standards.
  • Prepare project documents from start to finish with professional-quality output.
  • Manage multiple active projects and meet deadlines efficiently.
  • Adhere to CAD standards (Tetra Tech or client-specific).
  • Work collaboratively on drawings that meet and exceed client requirements during bid and submittal phases.

Required Qualifications:
  • Associate degree in CAD Drafting or a related field, or completion of a certified Autodesk Civil 3D training program, plus at least five years of relevant work experience.
  • Proven proficiency in AutoCAD Civil 3D for civil design, including feature lines, grading objects, survey points, profiles, surfaces, and pipe networks.
  • Experience using Civil 3D labels.
  • Excellent communication skills - interpersonal, listening, oral, and written.
  • Skilled in Microsoft Office, Adobe Acrobat, and general PC usage.
  • Knowledge of standard drafting practices and procedures.
  • Ability to work independently, exercise sound judgment, and manage time effectively.
  • Strong analytical, organizational, and problem-solving skills.

Preferred Qualifications:
  • Experience designing ADA curb ramps, utilities, drainage, and roadway elements.
  • Familiarity with ADA design parameters for roadways, streets, and site grading.
  • Ability to generate layout drawings from sketches or specifications.

Physical Requirements:
  • Ability to work at a computer for extended periods of time.
  • Occasional site or office visits may be required to coordinate with project teams or review design documentation.

Work Environment/Environmental Factors:
Work is typically performed in a professional office environment using a computer for extended periods, with a moderate noise level.

  • Comprehensive and market-competitive benefits.
