Industry UsageArchitecture, engineering, manufacturingConstruction, architecture, engineering

Contract Computer Aided Design Designers focus on creating detailed 3D models and technical drawings using CAD software, often involved in complex design projects. Contract Draftsmen primarily produce technical drawings based on specifications, often following existing designs. While both roles require technical skills and familiarity with drafting tools, CAD Designers typically handle more advanced modeling and design tasks, whereas Draftsmen focus on precise technical documentation.

Job description

CAD Designer - Civil Engineering & Surveying

Our client, a growing civil engineering and surveying team is seeking a skilled CAD Designer to produce accurate, productionready drawings for land development, site design, and survey projects. This role is highly collaborative, working directly with licensed engineers and surveyors to translate field data, design intent, and engineering calculations into complete, permitready plan sets using AutoCAD Civil 3D.

The ideal candidate is detailoriented, highly proficient with Civil 3D, and comfortable managing multiple active drawings in a fastpaced, deadlinedriven environment.

$70,000 - $85,000 a year

Key Responsibilities

            Produce civil engineering plan sets including grading, drainage, utilities, and site layout using AutoCAD Civil 3D

            Incorporate survey field data into base drawings and existingconditions plans

            Draft plats, easements, legal descriptions, and survey exhibits

            Apply and maintain CAD standards, templates, layering conventions, and LISP routines

            Coordinate with engineers and surveyors to resolve design details and ensure drawing accuracy

            Prepare permit submittal packages and address municipal redline comments

            Manage drawing revisions and maintain organized project file structures

            Assist with quantity takeoffs and construction detail preparation

MustHave Qualifications

            Minimum 2 years of handson AutoCAD Civil 3D production experience

            Experience producing civil site plan sets from concept through permitready drawings

            Ability to read and interpret engineering plans, surveys, and legal descriptions

            Strong attention to detail and commitment to accuracy

            Ability to manage multiple active drawings simultaneously

Preferred Qualifications

            Experience with land development, subdivision, or site design projects

            Familiarity with AutoLISP routines and workflow automation

            Exposure to survey data processing (point files, surfaces, boundary drafting)

            Experience with municipal submittal standards and permitting processes

            Associate's or Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering Technology, Drafting, or related field

What Makes an Ideal Fit

            Reliable selfstarter who takes ownership of their drawings

            Comfortable working in a small, highoutput team environment

            Communicates proactively when issues arise

            Strong organizational habits and ability to prioritize deadlines

            Asks clarifying questions early to avoid rework

             Receptive to feedback and committed to continuous improvement

            Dependable, consistent, and prepared for each day's workload

Standout Candidate Qualities

            Deep Civil 3D expertise: surfaces, corridors, pipe networks, sheet set management

            Experience at a small civil/survey firm with full planset production exposure

            Familiarity with statespecific design standards and drainage requirements

            Proven ability to work from minimal direction and produce clean, permitready drawings on the first pass

Benefits: Health, Dental, Vision, 401k, HSA 
 

Why This Role Stands Out

This position offers real ownership over your work - not anonymous drafting in a large production queue. You'll see your drawings progress from initial concept to permitted project, with direct collaboration across engineering and surveying disciplines. The team is lean, the work is varied, and strong performance is rewarded through a projectbased incentive structure. For a CAD Designer who wants to grow quickly, contribute meaningfully, and be recognized for their skill, this environment offers a clear advantage over large corporate firms.

We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses and identifying potential inconsistencies or verification signals in application materials based on available information. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans. If you would like more information about how your data is processed, please contact us.
