Draw It. Quote It. Build It. Repeat.

About the Role

Our client is a well-established, Kenner-based manufacturer. They design and build complex industrial equipment for customers across the country and around the world — and they need a skilled CAD drafter to help bring those projects to life. This is a hands-on, production-oriented role where you’ll spend most of your day in AutoCAD, turning salespeople’s ideas and customer requirements into clear, accurate equipment layouts and installation drawings. You’ll also collaborate across departments, assist with project quoting, and work directly with customers and architects once a project is sold. If you’re a CAD-focused drafter who enjoys variety, teamwork, and seeing your work become a real-world installation — this is a great fit.

What You’ll Do

• Spend the majority of your day in AutoCAD — creating 2D and 3D equipment layouts that bring sales concepts to life for customers
• Collaborate closely with the sales team to translate customer needs and site conditions into accurate, professional drawings
• Produce detailed installation drawings — locating, mechanical, and electrical — once a project reaches the sold stage
• Work hand-in-hand with other departments to ensure equipment is correctly modified for each unique project
• Coordinate with architects on installation drawings as needed
• Assist with project quoting — pricing out systems using Excel and Word templates
• Use Leica 3D scanners to capture site conditions and incorporate them into designs
• Manage multiple projects simultaneously on busy days — staying organized and detail-oriented across 3–5 active projects
• Use Salesforce, in-house applications, and Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) daily

What We Offer

• $53-63K, commensurate with experience
• Health, dental, vision & life insurance| 401K with company match |Profit Sharing Plan | Paid Time Off

What You’ll Bring

• Solid AutoCAD skills — 2D and 3D proficiency is required; this is the core of the role
• A degree or coursework in Design Drafting, Industrial Technology, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field — or equivalent hands-on experience
• Strong mechanical aptitude and the ability to read and produce accurate technical drawings
• Good communication skills — you’ll interact with customers, salespeople, architects, and internal teams
• Comfort juggling multiple projects and shifting priorities without losing accuracy or attention to detail
• Proficiency in Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint; Salesforce experience a plus
• Leica 3D Scanner experience is a bonus but not required
• Minimal travel required — this is primarily an in-office, at-your-desk role
