This individual will work closely with our operations teams, project managers, and customers to develop production-ready graphics that can be accurately applied to large industrial structures.

ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS:

Technical Layout and Drafting:

  • Develop scaled layouts, dimensions, and positioning plans for logos, lettering, and graphics applied to water tanks and industrial structures.
  • Create and modify vector-based files for stencil production and large-format applications.
  • Utilize measurements, plot points, reference dimensions, and structural specifications to ensure accurate sizing and placement of graphics.
  • Interpret project drawings, customer specifications, and field measurements to prepare production-ready files.

  • Prepare layout templates and stencil files for field installation teams.

Production and Equipment Operation:

  • Operate large-format printers, plotters, and stencil-cutting equipment.
  • Prepare files for printing, cutting, and production output.
  • Perform quality checks on printed graphics, stencil materials, and layout dimensions to ensure production accuracy.

  • Manage material sizing, panel layouts, and alignment for oversized graphic applications.

Project Coordination and Collaboration:

  • Collaborate with project managers, field crew, and customers to review project specifications and graphic requirements.
  • Communicate layout limitations, scaling considerations, and production timelines.
  • Support project planning discussions related to stencil installation methods and graphic placement on complex structures.
  • Maintain organized project files, revisions, and production documentation.
  • Assist Company Engineer and other duties as assigned.

EDUCATION, SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE REQUIREMENTS:

  • Associate’s degree or technical experience in drafting, design technology, engineering technology, or related field required.
  • Experience operating large-format printers, plotters, or CNC/stencil-cutting equipment required.
  • Experience working with vector-based software such as Adobe Illustrator, AutoCAD, or similar programs required.
  • Strong understanding of scaling, proportions, measurements, and production specifications for oversized applications.
  • Strong mathematical, spatial reasoning, and problem-solving skills.
  • High attention to detail and accuracy.
  • Ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines simultaneously.
  • Strong communication and organizational skills.

WORK ENVIRONMENT & TRAVEL REQUIREMENTS:

  • Combination of office, production/shop, and occasional field/project site environments.
  • May require standing for extended periods of time while operating printing or plotting equipment.
  • Occasional travel may be required to support project planning, field measurements, or installation coordination.
