Engineering Technician

Engineering Technician

This mid-level Engineering Technician role focuses on CAD and Revit production work to support engineering teams in delivering high-quality construction documentation and standardized models. The position centers on executing clearly defined drafting, modeling, and documentation tasks based on engineering direction, without design ownership or decision-making responsibilities. You will work from redlines, legacy drawings, and partial information, using placeholders where needed, while maintaining progress with minimal supervision across multiple concurrent projects.

Responsibilities

• Produce and organize drawing sheets in Revit/AutoCAD from defined views and layouts, ensuring accuracy and consistency.
• Populate title blocks, place views, and maintain sheet organization per standards.
• Apply annotations, tags, and notes; update full drawing sets for consistency.
• Execute redlines/markups and incorporate iterative engineering feedback.
• Track revisions and maintain version control across drawing iterations.
• Build and maintain Revit families, templates, and standard details.
• Develop and organize detail libraries; remove outdated or redundant content.
• Support reusable components to improve efficiency and standardization.
• Clean and organize Revit models (families, views, naming, visibility, structure).
• Ensure annotation accuracy and alignment with standards.
• Maintain drawing logs, revision records, and organized file structures.
• Prepare submittal-ready packages (formatting, PDFs, complete deliverables).
• Modify standard layouts and adjust dimensions/annotations as designs evolve.
• Place equipment/families and update schedules based on defined inputs.
• Convert and standardize legacy AutoCAD drawings into Revit models.
• Assemble drawing packages and models strictly per engineer direction and standards.
• Translate sketches/markups into structured models while preserving design intent.
• Identify and flag missing or unclear inputs for engineering review.
• Work within defined standards; escalate design questions or ambiguities.
• Support multiple projects, flexing workload by phase and priority.
• Operate effectively in a task-based, high-volume drafting environment.

Essential Skills

• 5–10 years of production-focused CAD experience, with a clear emphasis on executing drafting tasks rather than leading design.
• 5-10 years of Revit experience
• Experience using Revit in a construction documentation context.
• Familiarity with building codes as they relate to drawing production and documentation.
• Proficiency with view placement, detailing, revision updates, and document control within Revit.
• Ability to follow engineering direction precisely without modifying design intent or layout concepts.
• Experience working with incomplete inputs such as redlines, legacy drawings, or partial information while maintaining progress.
• Proven ability to continue work using placeholders or temporary assumptions until final information is available.
• Ability to maintain drawing logs, revision records, and organized file structures.
