CAD Technician I

Are you passionate about transforming ideas into detailed designs? Join us as a CAD Technician I and play a key role in shaping the infrastructure that powers our communities. At ENTRUST Solutions Group, we’re known for our commitment to innovation, quality, and collaboration in the utility and energy sectors. In this role, you’ll bring engineering concepts to life through precise CAD drawings that support gas pipeline projects across the country.

This full-time, in-office role offers hands-on training and collaboration during the first few months. Once you're up to speed and familiar with our workflows, you'll transition into a hybrid schedule, balancing remote flexibility with occasional in-office work.

Please note: Candidates selected for this role will be required to complete an AutoCAD skills assessment.

What You’ll Do

As a CAD Technician I, you'll play a key role in bringing engineering concepts to life, working closely with engineers and field teams to transform ideas into precise technical drawings. Your day typically involves taking rough sketches or verbal instructions from engineers and converting them into detailed CAD drawings using tools like AutoCAD. These drawings include construction plans, topographical profiles, and maps for gas pipeline projects.

You'll also be responsible for drafting structural details, plotting profiles and cross-sections using topographical data, and supporting field survey crews by gathering measurements and data needed for drawing updates. Your work helps calculate layouts, rights-of-way, and street dimensions, and you’ll design concrete and steel supports for both above-ground and underground pipeline systems.

Throughout the project lifecycle, you’ll create both preliminary and final sketches, and once construction is complete, you’ll generate as-built drawings to reflect the final state of the project. You’ll also revise drawings based on feedback from engineers or design coordinators and use survey data to produce contour and erosion control drawings. It’s a hands-on, detail-oriented role that blends technical skill with collaboration and problem-solving.

What We Offer

• A supportive and inclusive work environment that values diversity and encourages innovation.
• Opportunities for professional growth and career development.
• Competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package, including generous paid time off, retirement program with a company match, tuition reimbursement, and flexible work schedules.
  
  

Minimum Requirements

• Strong working knowledge of AutoCAD.
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
• Ability to work independently in a remote environment and meet deadlines.
  
  

Preferred Qualifications

• Associate of Applied Science (AAS) degree in Design and Drafting Technology or a related field.
• Experience in utility or pipeline drafting is a plus.
