Key Responsibilities

Your duties will include, but are not limited to:

  • Utilizing 3D drawing software to prepare 3D models of full-scale process plants at a detailed design level. This will include development of detailed pipe routing, isometrics, mechanical layout of equipment, and coordination with discipline engineering sub-consultants/partners.
  • Mentoring of junior staff to develop skills and enable growth
  • Complete senior peer review of drafting deliverables, ensuring that drawings are technically compliant and meet our high standards
  • Developing and drawing up Process Flow Diagrams (PFDs), Piping and Instrumentation Drawings (P&IDs) and Hydraulic Grade Lines (HGLs) from information provided by engineers

  • Travel to sites to take measurements and draw/detail equipment and systems
  • Travel to site to assess the status of construction work and ensure the construction is proceeding in general conformance with the contract documents
Qualifications, Experience & Skills

P&C requires an experienced career drafting technologist who has built up knowledge and wisdom through immersion and exposure to independently produce drawings of consistently high quality. You must be able to contribute to the overall capacity of the design office rather than simply produce drawings as instructed.

As such, you must have the following minimum qualifications:

  • Minimum of 5 years' experience on Autodesk Plant 3D

  • At least 10 years of relevant and appropriate experience in heavy engineering, process plant and/or mining environments with demonstrable drawing deliverables. At least some of this experience must include layout and detailing of process plants, pump stations and/or pipelines
  • Minimum of 10 years' experience on AutoCAD (2D & 3D)
  • An elevated level of computer literacy with good skills in MS Excel, MS Office, and other applications
  • Able to develop expertise in specialized drafting-related software
  • Able to problem solve independently through research and information gathering via library, internet, equipment catalogues and supplier contacts
  • A valid driver's license, as well as willing and able to travel internationally
  • A calculated approach to ensure all deliverables are maintained and organized effectively
  • Possess leadership qualities, allowing for potential development into the leadership / manager role in the drawing office in time
  • Ability to work well in an office, industrial and mining site environment
  • Able to work hard, act professionally and make decisions independently
  • Diligence and a commitment to technical learning
  • Able to communicate well with individuals and willing to train
  • Willing to adapt to client specific drafting standards and constant process layout changes

The ideal candidate will also contribute greatly with the following experience:

  • General site measurement of equipment and systems
  • Workshop, manufacturing, or fabrication, as well as experience in specifications, costing and estimating
  • Solid modelling with Autodesk Inventor and Plant 3D
  • Horizontal pipeline long sections
