Job description
Role DefinitionThe Drafter will be involved in the entire design process, from conceptual model creation to production level design and detailing. The Drafter takes ideas, rough sketches, and specifications to produce installation prints and bills of materials used to manufacture and install company products and projects. They assist in preparing design and bid documents, phasing drawings, as-built drawings, and construction sketches. They are a vital link between design theory and practical application by translating critical design concepts into detailed technical drawing for tangible, buildable mechanical and architectural end products and projects. This role profile is subject to change at any time.
PROTECT PEOPLE
Perform jobsite observations and take field measurements. Collaborate with engineers to solve design issues that may arise.
Comply with Risk Management Programs applicable to assigned projects.
Research space and site requirements, and technical documents to determine effect on designs.
BUILD RELATIONSHIPS
Work closely with the internal team, architects, consultants, contractors, directly hired tradespersons and others related to the project to obtain technical details, optimize designs, and resolve issues.
Work on teams to effectively resolve design issues, answer questions, solve production problems, and to make sure that final plans are accurate.
Communicate effectively with team, vendors, architects, engineers, general contractors, and field personnel to produce architectural, equipment installation, and structural steel fabrication drawings. This collaboration may be on the jobsite when needed.
Provide support for the technical workers who contribute to the building of our structures and projects.
Ensure proper format/coding/requested part numbers in a consistent format.
Provide measurements, dimensions, and notes on the materials needed to complete the project.
Provide basic support for all other departments as needed, along with other assigned duties.
FOCUS ON END GOALS
Specialize in architectural, civil, electrical, or mechanical drafting and design plans, blueprints, and drawings to create schematics that can be viewed, printed, or programmed directly into building information modeling (BIM) systems.
Primary team member for printing, plotting, and collating drawing sets.
Develop complete and accurate electronic working plans, elevations, details, charts, and/or revisions from existing drawings, measurements, sketches, specifications, etc.
Specify dimensions, materials, and procedures for new products.
Prepare layouts that show the details for a wide variety of machinery and mechanical tools and devices. These layouts indicate installation dimensions, fastening methods, and other requirements needed for assembly.
Build layouts, elevations, sections, and field connections during the shop drawing process for both structural and architectural projects.
Resolve discrepancies by collecting and analyzing information through collaboration with the CAD department, tower structural analysts, project managers, and engineers.
Prepare engineering change documentation.
DRIVE INNOVATION
Integrate new technology or environmentally friendly practices into existing processes.
Demonstrate technical drawing proficiency in Revit, AutoCAD, and Inventor. Demonstrate proficiency to solve mathematical calculations involving factors such as angles, triangulation, weights, and costs.
Develop and modify designs and drawings for mechanical components and subsystems materials, or complete products using Revit and other software.
Develop and obtain design prototype parts for testing and pre-production activities.
Critique designs for safety, manufacturability, constructability, failure modes, customer usage, and function.
Analyze quality problems through data analysis, field returns, and experimentation to create more robust designs to reduce service incidence rates.
