C Senior Electrical CAD Designer

Description

Background check and drug screening are requirements of this position. Contingent on contract award.

• The Senior Electrical CAD Designer will support the development of 2D shipboard electrical power and control schematics, automation diagrams, and associated documentation.
• This role is focused on delivering clear, detailed, and standards-compliant CAD deliverables that support engineering design, vendor interfacing, fabrication, and installation for shipboard systems.
• Implement and maintain strict drafting standards and best practices such as:
  • Layer management, line types, fonts, and text styles
  • Drawing organization, annotation clarity, and scale consistency
  • Use of viewports, title blocks, and reference callouts for fabrication and installation readiness
  • Generate and revise CAD drawings based on engineering review comments, change requests, and vendor data

• Organize and maintain clean, consistent CAD deliverables that support electrical design and installation across shipboard zones.
• Ensure drawings are suitable for fabrication and installation teams with accurate detail, notes, and dimensions.
• Adhere to internal company CAD standards and electrical drafting conventions tailored for marine power and control systems.

• Work closely with electrical engineers and automation engineers to interpret design requirements, schematics, and specification inputs.
• Support design reviews by preparing updated CAD deliverables and incorporating feedback from multidisciplinary teams.
• Communicate technical questions and suggestions clearly to engineering staff to resolve drawing ambiguities.

• Demonstrated experience producing shipboard electrical power and control schematics and related technical drawings.
• Strong proficiency in 2D CAD software, such as AutoCAD or equivalent, with a track record of producing high-quality electrical schematic and detail drawings.
• Solid understanding of drafting standards and practices, including effective layer management, line types, plotting, use of viewports, and drawing to scale.
• Ability to produce clear, consistent, and well-organized electrical drawings that support construction and installation activities.

• Hands-on experience or familiarity with PLCs and associated hardware, including schematic development for inputs, outputs, power, and control interfaces.
• Background working in marine or industrial environments with multidisciplinary engineering teams.
• Familiarity with electrical schematic conventions used for power distribution, control logic, and automation documentation.
