The Senior Draughtsman is responsible for producing high-quality technical drawings and plans forindustrial manufacturing processes. This role involves working closely with engineers and projectmanagers to create detailed and accurate designs for machinery, equipment, or plant layouts. TheSenior Draughtsman will use computer-aided design (CAD) software to draft and modify designs,ensuring that all plans comply with industry standards and project specifications. Additionally, the rolerequires mentoring junior draughtsman and ensuring that drawings and technical documentation arecompleted in a timely and precise manner.Key ResponsibilitiesTechnical Drawing and Draftingo Create detailed, accurate, and comprehensive technical drawings for manufacturingprocesses, machinery, equipment, or plant layouts using CAD software (e.g., AutoCAD,SolidWorks, or other relevant tools).o Develop both 2D and 3D models, ensuring the designs meet engineering specificationsand standards.o Modify existing drawings based on feedback from engineers, project managers, orclients.o Ensure that all drawings are in compliance with company standards, industryregulations, and project requirements.Collaboration with Engineers and Design Teamso Work closely with engineers, production teams, and project managers to understanddesign requirements, manufacturing constraints, and project timelines.o Assist engineers in preparing technical drawings for complex systems, components, orproducts.o Review design proposals and provide feedback or suggestions for improvements basedon practical manufacturing considerations.o Participate in design review meetings and assist in troubleshooting any design ordrafting issues.Document Management and Revision Controlo Maintain and manage all technical drawings, specifications, and related documents toensure they are current and easily accessible.o Implement a proper revision control system to track changes, ensuring that allstakeholders are working with the most up-to-date plans.o Ensure that drawing standards and documentation are consistent across all projects,maintaining high levels of accuracy and quality.Design Analysis and Supporto Analyze project requirements and develop draft designs that can be easily translatedinto workable production specifications.o Identify potential design flaws or inefficiencies and work with the engineering team toresolve them.o Evaluate the feasibility of designs, suggesting modifications to optimize performance ormanufacturability.o Provide technical support to production teams, helping them understand andimplement design specifications.Mentorship and Trainingo Mentor and guide junior draughtsmen, providing advice and technical support to helpthem develop their skills.o Provide training on the use of CAD software, design principles, and industry standards tojunior team members.o Assist in reviewing and evaluating the work of junior draughtsmen to ensure compliancewith company standards.Project Coordination and Timelineso Manage multiple drafting tasks and ensure that deadlines for project deliverables aremet.o Coordinate with other departments to ensure designs are aligned with productionschedules and project goals.o Prioritize tasks effectively, adjusting to changes in project scope or timelines asnecessary.Quality Control and Complianceo Ensure that all drafts and drawings meet relevant industry standards, codes, andregulations.o Conduct quality checks on all technical drawings to ensure accuracy, clarity, andconsistency.o Ensure designs are cost-effective, manufacturable, and comply with all clientspecifications and requirements.Continuous Improvemento Stay up-to-date with the latest advancements in CAD software, drafting techniques, andmanufacturing processes.o Suggest improvements to the drafting process, tools, and methodologies to increaseefficiency and quality.o Participate in ongoing professional development activities to enhance technical skillsand knowledge.
