Build systems that make a difference
We're looking for a detail-oriented CAD Designer to help turn engineering concepts into accurate 3D models and production-ready drawings for commercial, institutional, and industrial water equipment. You'll work closely with project engineers and other teams, using markups, existing drawings, and project documentation to develop complete designs.

Occasionally support 2D AutoCAD drawings for electrical panels, including wiring diagrams, in coordination with the electrical engineer.
Check drawings for completeness and accuracy.
Generate bills of materials from 3D drawings.
Maintain and update the standards drawing library.
Provide design support to sales, procurement, and manufacturing.
Contribute to product development and other projects as needed.
What you bring
An associate degree in CAD drafting or a related field, and/or six years of 3D CAD design experience.
3D modeling experience; Inventor is preferred, while SolidWorks or Creo experience is also relevant.
Strong attention to detail and the ability to interpret markups and technical documentation.
Clear communication skills and a collaborative approach to resolving issues.
Experience with commercial or industrial water treatment equipment is a plus.
Experience designing equipment or systems that include piping, tanks, or related components is a strong advantage.
Compensation and benefits
The hourly pay range is $25-$40 , depending on experience. The position may include overtime as business needs require, along with:
Quarterly profit sharing.
401(k) with company contribution
