What are Senior Draftsmen?

Senior Draftsmen are experienced professionals who create detailed technical drawings and plans used in construction, manufacturing, and engineering projects. They use computer-aided design (CAD) software to develop blueprints, layouts, and schematics based on specifications provided by architects, engineers, or designers. Senior Draftsmen often oversee junior drafters, review drawings for accuracy, and ensure that all plans comply with relevant standards and regulations. Their expertise and attention to detail help ensure that projects progress smoothly from design to completion.

How does a Senior Draftsman typically collaborate with architects, engineers, and other stakeholders during a project?

A Senior Draftsman regularly works alongside architects, engineers, and project managers to ensure that technical drawings accurately reflect the design intent and comply with relevant codes and standards. This collaboration often involves attending coordination meetings, incorporating feedback, and updating drawings as designs evolve. Effective communication and the ability to interpret and integrate input from multiple disciplines are crucial for success in this role. Additionally, Senior Draftsmen may mentor junior staff and help resolve technical challenges that arise during drafting and construction phases.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Senior Draftsman, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Senior Draftsman, you need advanced proficiency in technical drawing, architectural or engineering drafting, and a strong understanding of industry standards, usually backed by a diploma or degree in drafting or a related field. Expertise in CAD software such as AutoCAD, Revit, or SolidWorks, and familiarity with relevant building codes or technical documentation systems, is typically required. Strong attention to detail, problem-solving abilities, and effective communication skills set exceptional candidates apart. These skills are crucial for producing accurate, high-quality technical drawings that ensure project success and clear collaboration with engineers, architects, and construction teams.

Job description

EPS Corporation is seeking a Sr Designer/Draftsman with five years' experience in developing designs for complex engineering systems, structure and components, including mechanical, electrical, and circuits, from planning to execution of the presentation of designs in graphics form or in detailed models. Background in design and drafting techniques, engineering drawings, Computer Aided Design (CAD)/graphics in recent versions of AutoCAD and/or Solidworks, generating computer models, and reading drawings. Demonstrated knowledge on American Society of Mechanical Engineering (ASME) drafting and drawings standards.

Familiarity with U.S. Navy submersibles or related systems, especially related to specific drafting requirements and practices for a SEAL Delivery Vehicle or Shallow Water Combat Submersible (SWCS) is desirable.Job Responsibilities: Develop, update, review, and maintain engineering drawings, 3D models, and technical documentation in support of manned and unmanned undersea vehicle systems such as MK11 SDV, SWCS, and DCS. Create and modify detailed mechanical and electrical designs using CAD software per MIL-STD-31000B and Drawing Requirements Manual standards

Work closely with mechanical, electrical, and systems engineers to translate conceptual designs into fabrication-ready drawings and data packages. Ensure configuration management of all drawing packages and documents using CMPRO or other government-specified tools, in accordance with project CM plans Apply knowledge of fabrication methods, materials (including metals and composites), and undersea system constraints (e.g., watertight enclosures, human-machine interfaces, structural limitations). Provide redlines, drawing mark-ups, Notice of Revisions (NORs), and drafting notes in support of engineering change processes

Collaborate in the generation of technical data packages that support prototype builds, production units, and depot repairs. Develop or support anodizing, painting, and structural fit documentation to support fabrication processes and ensure drawing packages meet OQE and certification requirements. Required Experience: Minimum 5 years of experience in mechanical or electrical drafting and design with increasing responsibility.

Hands-on experience with undersea, naval, or DoD platform design work is strongly preferred. Proficiency in using 3D modeling software such as SolidWorks, AutoCAD, Inventor, or Creo. Experience producing drawing packages compliant with MIL-STD-31000B, NAVSEA standards, and ISO quality systems.

Familiarity with fabrication and assembly processes, including welding (per S9074-AQ-GIB-010/248 & 278), CNC machining, composite layup, and mechanical integration. Experience supporting SOC-designated components and understanding of submarine/special mission system design constraints. Required Skills and Qualifications: Associate's degree or technical certification in Drafting, Design Engineering Technology, or a related field.

Equivalent work experience may be considered in lieu of formal education. U.S. Citizenship and active Secret Clearance required

Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings, specs, and technical documentation. Strong working knowledge of GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing). Knowledge of DoD data deliverables and Configuration Management practices.

Exceptional attention to detail, self-directed, and able to work collaboratively in a fast-paced, multidisciplinary environment. Desired five years' experience in developing designs for complex engineering systems, structure and components, including mechanical, electrical, and circuits, from planning to execution of the presentation of designs in graphics form or in detailed models.
