Job Description & How to Apply Below
Rochester, NY (Hybrid/Remote Flexibility Considered)
Full-Time | Permanent
We’re seeking a Senior 3D CAD Designer to join a highly specialized engineering team designing custom modular process systems for industries such as chemical, pharmaceutical, and energy.
This is a hands-on design role where you’ll own the full 3D modeling lifecycle—from concept through fabrication—working closely with engineers to bring complex process systems to life.
If you enjoy building real-world systems (not just drawings) and want to see your designs manufactured and implemented, this is a strong fit.
What You’ll Be Doing- Lead 3D modeling and design of complete process systems (equipment, piping, structural steel, instrumentation)
- Partner with Process/Project Engineers to develop:
- P&IDs (Piping & Instrumentation Diagrams)
- PFDs (Process Flow Diagrams)
- Build detailed system models using:
- AutoCAD Plant 3D
- Autodesk Advance Steel (plus)
- Design modular/skid-mounted systems of varying scale and complexity
- Generate:
- Fabrication drawings (steel layouts, piping isometrics, orthographics)
- Bills of Materials (BOMs) for procurement and manufacturing
- Collaborate with fabrication teams to:
- Troubleshoot design issues
- Implement real-time changes during build
- Develop as-built models and documentation post-fabrication
- Support CAD standards, templates, and system libraries
- 10+ years of 3D CAD design experience in process, piping, or industrial systems
- Strong expertise in:
- AutoCAD Plant 3D (required)
- 3D piping design (must-have)
- Experience designing:
- Process equipment layouts
- Utility & process piping systems
- Ability to interpret and work from:
- Equipment specs
- Instrumentation data
- Engineering diagrams
- Strong collaboration skills with engineers, vendors, and fabrication teams
- Experience with Autodesk Advance Steel
- Familiarity with pipe stress analysis tools (e.g., Caesar II)
- Exposure to Smart P&IDs
- Background in chemical/process industries preferred
- Primarily office-based with occasional shop/fabrication floor exposure
- Opportunity to see your designs built and implemented
- Relocation support available
- Remote flexibility considered for highly experienced candidates
