We’re seeking a CAD Design Technician (Engineering Tech II) to join a leading engineering and manufacturing company specializing in innovative cooling tower solutions. This role is perfect for someone who thrives on turning ideas into detailed drawings and enjoys seeing their work come to life in large-scale industrial projects. We’re looking for someone to support new-build and reconstruction cooling tower projects by producing the technical information needed to quote, plan, and execute installations. This role partners closely with Engineering, Project teams, and vendors to deliver accurate bills of material and drawings—and to help drive cost-effective, innovative solutions in the field.
Key Responsibilities
- Create accurate installation bills of material (BOMs) to support quoting and project execution.
- Develop installation and fabrication drawings to guide field and shop work.
- Support job planning with the Engineering Supervisor to meet schedules and cost budgets, with an emphasis on cost reduction and innovation.
- Provide technical support across projects including specification review, field issue resolution, component design/development support, and cooling tower inspections as needed.
Requirements
- 5+ years of experience detailing and applying structural/mechanical/materials designs in a construction or industrial environment.
- Proficiency with AutoCAD and Microsoft Excel.
- Hands-on knowledge of common construction materials and methods (lumber, fiberglass, steel, concrete) and practical assembly/installation concepts.
- Ability to collaborate across departments and with vendors; willingness to travel as needed.
Preferred
- Cooling tower design/product experience (helpful, not required).
- Experience serving as a lead technician and guiding junior technical resources on projects.
What success looks like in this role
Accurate, complete BOMs and drawings; strong cross-functional communication; and creative, cost-effective solutions that support safe, on-time project delivery.
Salary: $60,000+/Year (depending on experience)
