Entry Level Designer

Start your career with Entech Engineering and gain hands-on experience working on real engineering projects. As an Entry-Level Drafter, you’ll use AutoCAD and Civil 3D to help create and update drawings, incorporate design changes, and support engineers and senior design staff throughout the project process.

This role is ideal for someone who is detail-oriented, eager to learn, and looking to build a strong foundation in engineering design. Prior professional experience is not required, and relevant coursework, internships, or co-op experience may be considered.

ROLE AND RESPONSIBILITIES

• Create layout and background plans in AutoCAD and Civil 3D under the direction of engineers and senior design staff.
• Prepare plan-view drawings, sections, details, sketches, flow diagrams, and one-line diagrams from established design information.
• Incorporate redlines and reviewer comments accurately, maintaining drawing consistency and revision control.
• Assemble drawing cover sheets, legends, notes, standard details, sheet indexes, and supporting plan-set information.
• Generate plots, PDFs, and print sets as directed and verify basic sheet setup, scale, orientation, and legibility before distribution.
• Organize CAD files, references, layers, blocks, and project drawing folders in accordance with project and company standards.
• Coordinate routine drafting questions with project team members and communicate missing or conflicting information promptly.
• Perform basic quality checks for dimensions, labels, callouts, match lines, and consistency between plans, sections, and details.

PREFERRED SKILLS

• Civil 3D drafting exposure, including surfaces, alignments, profiles, pipe networks, or similar civil design
  objects.
• Experience reading engineering plans, markups, survey/base mapping, utility information, or construction
  documents.
• Familiarity with external references, sheet sets, CAD standards, title blocks, and file-naming conventions.
• Ability to convert sketches, field notes, and redlines into clear and accurate CAD deliverables.
• Strong organization, file-management, proofreading, and document-control habits.
• Interest in developing broader multidisciplinary drafting skills across civil, water/wastewater, facilities, or
  infrastructure projects

ADDITIONAL NOTES

• Work is performed primarily in a collaborative office/design environment with regular computer and CAD
  use.
• The position is intended as a developmental drafting role and may receive progressively more complex
  assignments as proficiency increases.
• Occasional coordination with engineers, designers, project managers, survey staff, and other technical
  disciplines may be required.
• Project priorities and deadlines may require work on multiple drawing sets at different stages of completion
