Job description

CAD Drafting Technician

Location: Independence, KS| Relocation Assistance Available

Relocation Highlight: Willing to make a move for the right fit? We offer up to $2,000 in relocation assistance to help you get settled!

About the Role

Are you a detail-oriented drafter looking to build a career in land surveying? We are seeking a CAD Drafting Technician to join our tight-knit team working directly alongside two Licensed Land Surveyors. In this role, you’ll turn raw field data collected by our crews into precise, high-quality boundary, topographic, and property surveys.

If you take pride in accuracy, enjoy solving visual puzzles, and want to grow under direct mentorship from experienced professionals, we’d love to talk to you.

What You’ll Do

  • Draft with Precision: Transform field survey data into clear, accurate CAD drawings using AutoCAD.
  • Analyze Legal Records: Review property legal descriptions, deeds, and historical documents to guide your drafting.
  • Research & Investigate: Conduct online research to retrieve land records, municipal data, and property information.
  • Decipher Field Notes: Interpret raw field technician notes, sketches, and historical script/cursive records.
  • Collaborate Daily: Communicate clearly with surveyors, field crews, and clients over the phone and via email to keep projects moving smoothly.
  • Manage Documents: Utilize Microsoft Word, Excel, and internal software tools to organize project files and specs.

What You Bring

  • CAD Proficiency: Hands-on experience with AutoCAD and a solid grasp of core drafting commands.
  • Hands-on Experience: 1+ years of CAD drafting experience preferred (surveying or civil background is a major plus!).
  • Sharp Eye for Detail: Ability to decipher handwritten field notes and navigate legal property descriptions.
  • Tech Savvy: Comfortable with MS Office (Excel & Word), web research, and eager to learn proprietary company software/codes.
  • Strong Communicator: Clear, professional verbal and phone skills for collaborating with team members and external contacts.
  • Organizational Skills: Ability to prioritize daily tasks, manage multiple timelines, and keep files well-ordered.

Perks & Benefits

  • Up to $2,000 Relocation Allowance for out-of-area candidates.
  • Competitive salary and performance-based growth opportunities.
  • Direct mentorship from licensed professionals to accelerate your career.
  • Supportive, collaborative team environment.
