CAD Drafter

Kamran & Company is a leading commercial food service equipment dealer and design-build contractor with over 34 years of industry history and $1B+ in completed project value. We serve casinos, stadiums, hospitals, and hospitality venues nationwide, delivering the full project lifecycle — from specification and design through procurement and installation. We are growing, and we are looking for people who take pride in their work, own their responsibilities, and want to build something lasting.

The CAD Drafter produces the drawing set behind every food service project — equipment plans, elevations, sections, and utility rough-in drawings — working from designer markups, project documents, and established company drawing standards. This role turns design intent into accurate, buildable, consistently formatted documents that contractors install from and inspectors approve. The work rewards precision above all: a dimension off by two inches on a drawing becomes a piece of equipment that does not fit on a jobsite three months later.

• Produce equipment plans, elevations, sections, and details in AutoCAD from designer markups, sketches, and project documents.
• Develop utility rough-in drawings showing plumbing, electrical, and mechanical connection points, sizes, and locations per manufacturer cut sheets.
• Create and update drawing sets through design development, permit, and construction issue phases.
• Process revisions accurately, including revision clouds, deltas, and title block updates.
• Apply company CAD standards for layers, line weights, text styles, symbols, and title blocks on every drawing.
• Maintain block, symbol, and detail libraries and keep them current as equipment lines change.
• Manage drawing files, external references, and file naming so the current version is always identifiable.
• Plot and publish PDF drawing sets for submittal, permit, and distribution.

• Incorporate architectural, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing backgrounds into food service drawings and keep them updated as the backgrounds change.
• Check drawings for dimensional accuracy, clearance requirements, and consistency across the set before they are issued.
• Verify equipment dimensions and utility requirements against manufacturer cut sheets and specifications.
• Flag conflicts, missing information, and discrepancies to the Designer or Senior Designer rather than drawing around them.

• Support preparation of equipment schedules, cut sheet packages, and submittal documents.
• Maintain drawing logs, issue records, and the project drawing archive.
• Assist with as-built drawing updates from field markups at project closeout.
• Record and report all hours worked accurately, including overtime.

• 2+ years of CAD drafting experience in food service, architectural, mechanical, or a related technical field.
• Proficiency in AutoCAD, including external references, layer management, blocks, and plotting.
• Ability to read and interpret architectural, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing drawings.
• Meticulous dimensional accuracy and attention to drawing consistency.
• Ability to take direction from designers, manage multiple drawing assignments, and meet issue dates.

• Revit and BIM coordination experience, including working with food service equipment families.
• Associate degree or certificate in drafting, CAD technology, or architectural technology.
• Familiarity with Auto Quotes, Bluebeam,…
