Senior Drafter

We’re looking for a seasoned Senior Drafting Checker with deep experience in steel and metal structural design. In this onsite daily role, you’ll take the lead in reviewing and checking detailed fabrication and structural drawings to ensure they meet industry standards and reflect accurate design intent. You’ll also contribute to drafting and modeling tasks involving complex steel and metal structures like monopoles, utility components, platforms, and custom fabrications. This role is ideal for someone who has spent over two decades in detailing and checking, and who brings both the technical knowledge and practical insight needed to support high‑quality, shop‑ready structural drawings. Key Responsibilities Review and check engineering drawings for steel and metal structures for accuracy, completeness, and conformance with internal and industry standards. Verify weld symbols, material specifications, tolerances, dimensions, and fabrication details for constructability and compliance. Work directly with engineers and drafters to resolve drawing discrepancies and ensure design intent is properly captured. Perform 2D drafting and 3D modeling in Solidworks, Inventor, and other CAD tools, with an emphasis on fabrication‑ready deliverables. Interpret redlines, sketches, and markups to ensure revisions are accurately incorporated. Maintain drawing control, document revisions, and enforce version management standards. Support the development and continuous improvement of internal drafting/checking processes, templates, and standards. Ensure final drawing packages are suitable for shop fabrication, vendor review, and field installation. Required Qualifications 10+ years of detailing and checking experience with a strong focus on steel and metal structures. Associate degree or technical diploma in Drafting, Engineering Technology, or a related field. Proficiency in CAD software (SolidWorks, AutoCAD Inventor, or similar) and drawing management systems. Strong working knowledge of structural steel design, metal fabrication methods, and Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T). Familiarity with relevant structural standards (e.g., AISC, AWS) and shop detailing practices. Excellent attention to detail and ability to identify inconsistencies, errors, or missing information in drawings. Strong communication skills and the ability to work in a collaborative, fast‑paced environment. #J-18808-Ljbffr Addison Group
