Job Description

AutoCAD 3D Technician – Existing Utilities & Facility Mapping

Role Summary
Responsible for creating accurate 2D/3D AutoCAD drawings that document existing facility gridlines, water mains, wastewater piping, and other underground/above‐ground utilities. This role supports engineers and designers by producing clean, scalable base plans that allow new designs to be developed around verified existing conditions.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop detailed AutoCAD 2D/3D drawings showing structural gridlines, water distribution systems, wastewater networks, and related infrastructure.
• Import PDFs, scale them accurately, and overlay markups or traced geometry to convert field or legacy documents into usable CAD backgrounds.
• Interpret site plans, utility maps, as‐builts, and field data to create precise, organized layers and linework.
• Maintain drawing standards, naming conventions, and layer discipline to ensure clarity for downstream designers.
• Coordinate with engineers, project managers, and field teams to verify existing conditions and resolve discrepancies.
• Produce updated plan sets as new information becomes available.

Required Skills & Experience

• Proficiency in AutoCAD and AutoCAD 3D (Civil 3D experience a plus).
• Strong ability to scale, align, and mark PDFs within AutoCAD.
• Experience drafting utility systems (water, wastewater, storm, or industrial piping).
• Understanding of gridline systems, building layouts, and site infrastructure.
• Ability to read engineering drawings, as‐builts, and survey documents.
• Strong attention to detail and commitment to accuracy.

Preferred

• Experience with GIS data, point clouds, or survey imports.
• Previous As-Built experience
• Familiarity with industrial facilities, municipal utilities, or site development.
