  • Vendor & Client Collaboration: Communicate with material suppliers to secure vendor pricing and collaborate with project managers, engineers, and clients to align designs with budgets.
  • Revision Management: Update technical drawings and adjust cost estimates promptly when project scopes or field conditions change.

Qualifications & Requirements

  • Education: Associate or Bachelor’s degree in Drafting, Design, Engineering, or equivalent experience.
  • Technical Skills: Proficiency in 2D/3D CAD software (e.g., AutoCAD, SolidWorks) and estimating software/Excel.
