Electrical CAD Technician / Designer
About The Position
We are seeking an Electrical CAD Technician / Designer to support the development of construction drawings from Revit-based models for building and project coordination. This role is primarily focused on 2D drawing production, including annotating, dimensioning, sheet setup, and construction document coordination using views generated from Revit models. This is a strong fit for someone with solid electrical drafting and documentation skills who may not have extensive 3D modeling experience. The primary responsibility is to help convert model content into clear, accurate, well-organized drawing sheets suitable for internal review, coordination, and construction use.
Requirements
- Associate degree, technical certificate, or equivalent experience in CAD drafting, design technology, electrical drafting, or a related field.
- 2+ years of experience in electrical drafting/design support for AEC projects preferred.
- Working knowledge of Revit and/or AutoCAD in a building design environment.
- Experience producing electrical construction documents or coordinated drawing sets.
- Understanding of common electrical drawing content, such as lighting, power, panel schedules, symbols, and basic one-line concepts.
- Strong attention to detail, organization, and document quality.
- Ability to follow redlines, standards, and project instructions accurately.
- Ability to manage multiple deadlines and priorities in a team environment.
- Clear written and verbal communication skills.
Nice To Haves
- Experience supporting building systems projects in commercial, institutional, industrial, multifamily, healthcare, or education markets.
- Familiarity with sheet setup, view referencing, annotations, schedules, and documentation workflows in Revit.
- Exposure to interdisciplinary coordination in an architecture/engineering environment.
- Knowledge of company or client CAD/BIM standards.
- Experience with Bluebeam or similar markup/review tools.
Responsibilities
- Prepare and update 2D electrical drawings from Revit-generated views for construction documentation and coordination.
- Add annotations, dimensions, notes, callouts, detail references, legends, schedules, and sheet organization to support drawing completeness and readability.
- Assist with the production of floor plans, power plans, lighting plans, low-voltage plans, one-lines, risers, details, and enlarged views.
- Organize drawing sheets, view layouts, title blocks, and plotting sets in accordance with company and client standards.
- Review drawing sets for clarity, consistency, completeness, and coordination with architectural, structural, mechanical, and other engineering disciplines.
- Incorporate markups from engineers and project managers accurately and on schedule.
- Support quality control efforts by checking dimensions, notes, sheet references, naming conventions, and document standards.
- Help maintain CAD/Revit standards, templates, symbols, and drafting best practices.
- Coordinate with engineers and designers to resolve drafting and documentation issues.
- Assist with project deliverables at multiple project milestones.
- Prepare PDFs, plotting packages, and issued drawing sets for internal and external distribution.
- Track revisions and maintain organized project files.
