Computer Aided Design Designer

$25 - $42 per hour

Brooksource

Designer 1/CAD Technician – Transmission (Mid-Senior Level)

Fully Remote

3-6-month Contract-to-Hire

Pay Scale : $25/hr.-$42/hr.

About the Opportunity

NEI is seeking an experienced Designer and/or CAD Technician to support a growing portfolio of utility and renewable energy projects. Due to increased project volume and incoming client demand, the team is expanding its design capabilities and looking for a self-sufficient professional who can quickly contribute with minimal ramp-up time.

Position Summary

The CAD Technician / Designer will be responsible for developing engineering drawings, translating engineering markups into construction-ready design packages, and supporting utility transmission line projects through drafting and modeling activities. The team is seeking someone with approximately 5-10+ years of relevant experience who can independently manage assignments, understand utility design standards, and contribute immediately without significant oversight or training.

Key Responsibilities

  • Develop and modify engineering drawings using AutoCAD and Autodesk design tools
  • Create detailed design packages based on engineering markups and project requirements
  • Perform drafting support for transmission and utility infrastructure projects
  • Assist with PLS-CADD modeling activities for transmission line design projects
  • Support early-stage project design development under engineering oversight
  • Incorporate revisions and design updates throughout project lifecycles
  • Collaborate with engineers, designers, and project teams to ensure accurate deliverables
  • Maintain drawing quality, standards compliance, and documentation accuracy
  • Support renewable energy and utility-related project initiatives
  • Work independently while managing multiple project priorities

Required Qualifications

  • 5+ years of CAD drafting and design experience
  • Advanced proficiency with AutoCAD
  • Experience using Autodesk design software
  • Hands-on experience with PLS-CADD (required)
  • Experience supporting utility, transmission, power delivery, or related infrastructure projects
  • Ability to interpret engineering markups and develop detailed design drawings
  • Strong understanding of drafting standards and engineering documentation
  • Ability to work independently with minimal direction
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills in a remote environment

Preferred Qualifications

  • Utility transmission line design experience
  • Experience with wood pole and steel pole transmission projects
  • Structure spotting experience
  • Exposure to renewable energy projects
  • Understanding of power delivery engineering workflows
  • Familiarity with early-stage transmission design packages

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Clear path to grow into a Transmission Designer role (especially with PLS-CADD exposure)
  • Exposure to high-voltage infrastructure and renewable energy projects
  • Work on large-scale, impactful projects supporting grid expansion and data center growth
  • Strong, collaborative team environment with experienced engineers
  • Stable and growing project pipeline
