Senior CAD Designer – Part-Time

Role Overview

• Prepare design deliverables in CAD (e.g., physical layouts and sections; civil grading and drainage plans; structural steel/concrete layouts and details; mechanical equipment layouts, piping GAs/isometrics/supports; and single line/wiring/schematic drawings and related documents).
• Use tools such as AutoCAD, MicroStation, Civil 3D, Navisworks, and other 3D design software to draft, check, and revise designs, including bills of material and associated documentation.
• Interpret and incorporate information from engineers, vendor drawings, specifications, standards, and topographic/field data into coordinated design deliverables.
• Identify and help resolve design issues (interferences, grading conflicts, system layout problems, wiring inconsistencies, etc.) and support clash/coordination reviews across disciplines.
• Perform thorough self-checks of drawings, apply client and company standards consistently, and ensure completeness, accuracy, and constructability of issued deliverables.
• Support and sometimes lead field activities such as walkdowns and data gathering at client facilities, and update designs based on field conditions.
• Collaborate closely with engineers and designers from other disciplines, communicate progress and issues, and help maintain project schedules and priorities.
• Maintain and grow practical knowledge of engineering and design principles, including the ability to visualize parts and systems in 3D and relate equipment, wiring, and structures to the overall plant or substation design.

Requirements

• Associate’s degree in Computer Aided Design Technology OR a bachelor’s degree in engineering technology OR equivalent technical experience.
• Ten or more years of detailed CAD design experience producing detailed drawing for power projects (e.g., physical layouts and sections; civil grading and drainage plans; structural steel/concrete layouts and details; mechanical equipment layouts, piping GAs/isometrics/supports; and single line/wiring/schematic drawings and related documents).
• Proficiency with design software tools in executing 3D plant layout models.
• Required CAD Software skills: Autodesk AutoCAD, Autodesk Civil 3D, Bentley Microstation, Autodesk Navisworks.
• Additional valued skills but not required: Experience in power plant design process.
