CAD Designer

description

• using autocad and solidworks to create, modify, and maintain 2d technical drawings and graphic presentations of complex electrical/electronics-related items, including components, assemblies, equipment racks, panels, and cable routing
• interpreting engineering input (sketches, redlines, mark‑ups, models, specifications, and verbal guidance) and converting it into accurate, complete, and properly formatted drawings and diagrams
• ensuring all drawings comply with applicable dod and industry drawing standards, including mil-dtl-31000 and relevant asme drawing standards (e.g., asme y14 series), with correct use of layers, line weights, symbols, dimensions, tolerances, notes, title blocks, and revision blocks
• preparing and updating graphic presentations and drawing packages to support design reviews, installations, test activities, logistics documentation, and technical manuals
• supporting cm and revision control processes by updating drawing revisions, maintaining drawing logs, documenting changes, and coordinating with configuration/data management personnel to keep technical data current and traceable
• collaborating with engineers, technicians, and cm staff to clarify requirements, resolve discrepancies, and ensuring that drawings accurately represent the intended design and installation
• organizing, labeling, and archiving drawings and associated documentation in accordance with contract, security, and quality management protocols, ensuring traceability and availability for government review and audits
• developing digital illustrations, schematics, and other graphics that support procedures, training materials, briefings, and other technical documentation associated with supported electronic systems
