Newport News, VA • On-site

Full-time

Re-posted yesterday


Job description

Description:

Background check and drug screening are requirements of this position. Contingent on client approval.


• The Senior Electrical CAD Designer will support the development of 2D shipboard electrical power and control schematics, automation diagrams, and associated documentation.

• This role is focused on delivering clear, detailed, and standards-compliant CAD deliverables that support engineering design, vendor interfacing, fabrication, and installation for shipboard systems.


Requirements:

CAD Drafting & Documentation

• Produce 2D shipboard power and control schematics (single-line diagrams, wiring diagrams, panel layouts) that reflect engineering intent, vessel architecture, and installation requirements.

• Develop PLC system schematics, including I/O layout, power feeds, reference designators, signal sets, and interface points with power and control systems.

Implement and maintain strict drafting standards and best practices such as:

• Layer management, line types, fonts, and text styles

• Drawing organization, annotation clarity, and scale consistency

• Use of viewports, title blocks, and reference callouts for fabrication and installation readiness

• Generate and revise CAD drawings based on engineering review comments, change requests, and vendor data.

Standards Compliance & Quality

• Organize and maintain clean, consistent CAD deliverables that support electrical design and installation across shipboard zones.

• Ensure drawings are suitable for fabrication and installation teams with accurate detail, notes, and dimensions.

• Adhere to internal company CAD standards and electrical drafting conventions tailored for marine power and control systems.

Coordination & Support

• Work closely with electrical engineers and automation engineers to interpret design requirements, schematics, and specification inputs.

• Support design reviews by preparing updated CAD deliverables and incorporating feedback from multidisciplinary teams.

• Communicate technical questions and suggestions clearly to engineering staff to resolve drawing ambiguities.


Physical Job Requirements

1.Perform onboard field verification and redline walkdowns of drawings and installations

2.Climb ladders and access multiple levels of the vessel for layout validation

3.Enter confined or congested areas (cableways, piping routes, structural zones)

4.Stand and walk for moderate durations during surveys and coordination efforts

5.Carry laptops, drawing sets, or tablets (10–15 lbs) onboard

6.Work in low-light, high-noise, or restricted-access areas as required

7.Wear required PPE and safely navigate active shipyard and vessel environments


Education/Certification Requirements:

• Demonstrated experience producing shipboard electrical power and control schematics and related technical drawings.

• Strong proficiency in 2D CAD software, such as AutoCAD or equivalent, with a track record of producing high-quality electrical schematic and detail drawings.

• Solid understanding of drafting standards and practices, including effective layer management, line types, plotting, use of viewports, and drawing to scale.

• Ability to produce clear, consistent, and well-organized electrical drawings that support construction and installation activities.


Preferred

• Hands-on experience or familiarity with PLCs and associated hardware, including schematic development for inputs, outputs, power, and control interfaces.

• Background working in marine or industrial environments with multidisciplinary engineering teams.

• Familiarity with electrical schematic conventions used for power distribution, control logic, and automation documentation.
