Job description

We are seeking a contract CAD Technician to support engineering, maintenance,

and operations teams with the creation, revision, control, and management of

technical drawings and related project documentation. This role will focus on

developing and maintaining accurate CAD drawings, supporting design detailing

from initial engineering concepts, and ensuring drawing updates are properly

reviewed, documented, and controlled within the established drawing

management/PDM system.

The CAD Technician will work closely with engineers to convert conceptual or

modeled designs into complete drawing packages, update existing drawings based

on field conditions, field markups, legacy drawings, or project changes, and

support project documentation needs, including drawing organization, redline

incorporation, legacy drawing digitization, revision tracking, basic engineering

computations, specification updates, and coordination of supporting technical

information.

In addition to supporting the engineering team, this role will interface with internal

customers, primarily operations and maintenance personnel, to document requests,

retrieve existing drawings, clarify drawing needs, and help ensure accurate

technical information is available to support daily plant activities, troubleshooting,

and project execution.

The ideal candidate will have strong CAD drafting capability, experience working in

a controlled documentation environment, attention to detail, and the ability to

communicate effectively with engineering and plant personnel. Experience with

SolidWorks, AutoCAD, or similar CAD platforms is preferred, along with familiarity

with PDM or drawing vault systems, manufacturing environments, mechanical or

electrical equipment documentation, and continuous improvement of

drawing/documentation workflows.


EDUCATION

* Associate degree or 2-year technical degree in CAD/CAM, Mechanical

Engineering Technology, Electrical Engineering Technology,

Electromechanical Engineering Technology, Manufacturing Technology

* Minimum of 3 years of relevant CAD drafting, design support,

manufacturing documentation, or engineering support experience.

Required Skills:

Candidates must possess the following:

* Proficiency with SolidWorks or comparable 3D CAD software.

* Ability to create, revise, and maintain detailed drawings and drawing

packages.

* Ability to read and interpret mechanical, electrical, and manufacturing

drawings.
