CAD Draughtsman (Infrastructure) 19N25

As a CAD Draughtsman specializing in infrastructure, you will play a crucial role in the development of engineering designs and plans. Your primary focus will be to create detailed technical drawings and specifications for public works, bridges, roads, tunnels, and other large-scale infrastructure projects. You should have a strong foundation in computer-aided design (CAD) software and a keen eye for detail to ensure the accuracy of design components. By collaborating with engineers, architects, and construction teams, you will help to transform conceptual designs into operational plans, ensuring compliance with industry standards and regulations. Your expertise in CAD will be instrumental in zoning plans, converting sketches into technical drawings, and updating project documentation to reflect any design improvements or amendments.

Responsibilities

• Create detailed CAD drawings for infrastructure projects such as roads and bridges.
• Collaborate with engineers to convert conceptual designs into technical plans.
• Ensure that all drawings adhere to industry standards and safety regulations.
• Modify existing plans to accommodate new specifications or project changes.
• Assist in the preparation of technical documents and reports for projects.
• Communicate effectively with construction teams to understand project requirements.
• Perform calculations to analyze and produce reliable design specifications.
• Use advanced CAD software tools for 2D and 3D modeling of infrastructure components.
• Maintain up-to-date knowledge of CAD technologies and industry developments.
• Ensure accuracy and precision in technical drawings to facilitate project execution.
• Work with regulatory bodies to ensure designs meet all necessary approvals.
• Provide support and guidance to junior draughtsmen and engineering interns.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering, Architecture, or a related field is preferred.
• Proficiency in CAD software such as AutoCAD, MicroStation, and Revit.
• At least 3-5 years of experience in infrastructure or construction projects.
• Strong understanding of engineering principles and construction processes.
• Exceptional attention to detail and strong problem-solving skills.
• Ability to work collaboratively within a multidisciplinary project team.
• Good written and verbal communication skills to report design progression.
