CADD Designer

Key Responsibilities

• Develop advanced CADD and GIS (Geographic Information Systems) models, maps, and designs for DOE, DoD, and commercial engineering projects.
• Collaborate with engineers, project managers, and other stakeholders to gather data and create detailed technical drawings, spatial analysis, and mapping solutions.
• Utilize advanced features of MicroStation, AutoCAD, Revit, ArcGIS, and other GIS software to design, modify, and present project data.
• Oversee the integration of GIS data with CADD designs, ensuring accurate and seamless alignment between geographic and engineering data.
• Provide expertise in spatial data management and geographic data analysis, contributing to project planning and decision-making.
• Conduct quality assurance checks on all CADD and GIS deliverables to ensure adherence to project specifications and company standards.
• Coordinate with team members to ensure that all project files, drawings, and models are up to date and meet regulatory and contract requirements.
• Prepare and calculate itemized estimates of construction quantities (i.e., “quantity take-offs”) using CADD software.
• Assist engineers with the development of figures and calculated values in CADD as needed to complete engineering evaluations of designs in progress.
• Lead GIS data collection and field mapping efforts, including the use of GPS and remote sensing technologies to capture accurate site data.
• Mentor and support junior CADD/GIS team members, providing technical guidance and training on software tools and best practices.
• Stay current on industry trends, advancements in CADD and GIS technologies, and regulatory requirements, applying new methods to improve project outcomes.
