Job Details

What You'll Do

• Create detailed 3D models, fabrication drawings, and material take-offs for heavy industrial equipment, structural supports, and ducting systems.
• Design and detail hot exhaust and flue-gas ducting components, including casings, transitions, and structural platework.
• Detail structural members and their connections, including beams, columns, braces, plates, and welded or bolted joints.
• Develop drawings for customer review, material procurement, and fabrication.
• Coordinate layouts and interfaces with equipment such as SCR reactors, baghouses, ESPs, dampers, and expansion joints.
• Incorporate requirements for mechanical loading, operating temperatures, and thermal expansion with guidance from engineers and senior designers.
• Review project specifications and design inputs, identifying missing information, conflicts, or discrepancies.
• Perform geometric and material calculations, including lengths, areas, volumes, weights, and angles.
• Revise models and drawings based on engineering reviews, customer comments, and fabrication feedback.
• Collaborate with Engineering, Project Management, Sales, and fabrication teams throughout project execution.
• Maintain accurate drawings, revisions, and project files in accordance with document-control procedures.

What You'll Bring

• An associate's degree in Computer-Aided Design, Drafting, Engineering Technology, or a related discipline.

• Hands-on Autodesk Inventor experience creating 3D assemblies and fabrication-ready drawings.
• Experience designing or detailing heavy industrial equipment, structural steel frames, industrial ductwork, plate structures, or similar fabricated assemblies.
• An understanding of how typical structural members connect, including beam-to-column or beam-to-beam connections.
• The ability to accurately perform geometric and material-quantity calculations.

Preferred Experience

• Equipment skids, industrial support frames, or other heavy fabricated equipment.
• Hot exhaust, flue-gas, or other high-temperature industrial ducting systems.
• Pollution-control or industrial air-handling equipment such as SCRs, baghouses, or ESPs.
• Understanding of thermal expansion in large ducting or plate structures.
• Knowledge of industrial welding practices, bolted connections, and fabrication methods.
• Ability to read and interpret P&IDs and coordinate designs with process requirements.

Travel: Minimal, estimated at no more than 5%.
