Senior Piping Designer

About the Company

Our client is the leader in water filtration systems for industrial applications.

Responsibilities:

The Senior CAD Designer is a mid-level drafting and modeling role responsible for developing coordinated 3D plant models, preparing detailed engineering drawings, and supporting multidisciplinary design tasks. This role requires a solid understanding of AutoCAD Plant 3D, P&IDs, piping layouts, and drafting standards. The Senior CAD Designer works more independently, supports design decisions, and provides guidance to staff designers

• Develop and maintain AutoCAD Plant 3D models for equipment, piping, and general facility layouts.
• Generate 2D construction drawings—plans, sections, isometrics—derived from 3D models.
• Update and maintain P&IDs based on engineering inputs.
• Support yard piping layouts and preliminary pipeline profile drawings.
• Piping Design & Material Coordination
• Model piping systems using multiple materials (PVC, HDPE, SS, DI).
• Apply correct valve types, fittings, pressure classes, and line annotations.
• Identify routing issues and propose solutions to senior designers or engineers.
• Incorporate standard details into drawings to ensure constructability.
• Instrumentation & Discipline Integration
• Place and annotate instrumentation devices per P&IDs and engineering directives.
• Coordinate with I&E designers to ensure accurate cable routing and panel interfaces.
• Generate accurate tag lists and instrument location plans.
• Drawing Quality, Checking & Coordination
• Perform intermediate-level self-checks for completeness, accuracy, and clarity.
• Coordinate regularly with process, mechanical, electrical, and civil disciplines.
• Support field teams with drawing clarifications and minor as-built updates.

Qualifications

• 3+ years of CAD design experience (preferably water, wastewater, or industrial).
• Proficiency in AutoCAD Plant 3D including equipment modeling, piping, and orthographic creation.
• Strong organizational skills and ability to work with minimal supervision.

Education

• Diploma or Associate Degree in Drafting Technology, Mechanical Design, or related discipline.
• Additional Autodesk certifications preferred.
