- 5 years of experience in CAD design, 3D modelling and drafting of water and wastewater project’s systems and components.
- Strong hands-on experience with AutoCAD Plant 3D, BIM and Revit.
- Solid understanding of mechanical systems, piping design, pipe supports/pipe racks design, cable tray routing, civil outline design in line with project specification requirements.
- Team work with CAD 3D designers and drafters
- Problem-solving and constructability focus
Preferred
- Experience coordinating with Process, Mechanical, Electrical, I&C Engineering teams during development of 3D model and drawings creations
- Experience coordinating with construction teams during installation and commissioning phases.
- Familiarity with U.S. codes and standards (ASME, ASTM etc.).
- Strong organizational and communication skills in fast-paced project environments.
CAD 3D Designer -Coordination
- Coordinate closely with mechanical engineers (in-house and external partners) to ensure alignment between engineering intent and 3D design/drafting execution.
- Serve as the CAD 3D design/drafting interface between engineering disciplines (Process and EICA), project management (including PMO), procurement, and construction teams, as needed.
- Enforce CAD 3D design/drafting standards, modelling practices, and data management protocols across the project (documents and drawings).
- Coordinate work execution with outsourced 3D design and drafting teams, ensuring adherence to project standards and schedules.
- Participate in client meetings, design reviews, and interdisciplinary coordination workshops.
CAD 3D Design/Drafting
- Develop of 3D plant layouts, equipment arrangements, piping models, and associated 2D drawings deliverables.
- Ensure accurate integration of mechanical, piping, and utility systems within the BIM and AutoCAD Plant 3D environments.
- Utilize PFD and P&ID as the primary platform for detailed engineering design.
- Ensure consistency between PFD and P&ID engineering data and 3D/BIM models throughout the project lifecycle.
Project Execution & Quality
- Proceed CAD 3D design and drafting tasks to meet project milestones, budget, and quality requirements through the deliverable lists and schedules
- Review and approve design 3D models, 2D drawings, for technical accuracy and constructability. -Participate in CAD 3D model coordination, clash detection, and resolution in collaboration with engineering and construction teams.
- Support constructability reviews, design change management, and field issue resolution during construction.
