CAD Systems Specialist

CAD Systems Specialist:

Melbourne | $110k - $140k+ Package

We’re looking for a hands-on CAD Systems Specialist to improve how CAD is used across a large engineering environment.

This is not a project drafting role.

The focus is on systems, standards, automation, governance and continuous improvement.

You’ll be expected to identify what can be improved, implement better ways of working and show the impact those changes have had across the business.

The Role

You’ll take ownership of the CAD environment and work closely with technical teams, managers and IT.

Key responsibilities:

• Improve CAD standards, templates and workflows
• Maintain and develop the AutoCAD environment
• Drive consistency across design teams
• Identify and automate inefficient processes
• Develop CAD tools, libraries, menus and templates
• Support users with complex CAD issues
• Implement software upgrades and system improvements
• Support CAD governance across the business
• Explore AI and digital tools that improve technical workflows
• Train and mentor CAD users
• Work with stakeholders to drive adoption of new systems and processes

What We’re Looking For:

You’ll need strong AutoCAD experience and a solid understanding of CAD systems within an engineering or technical environment.

We want to hear about what you’ve actually improved.

Examples could include:

• CAD systems you’ve implemented
• Workflows you’ve automated
• Standards you’ve introduced
• Processes you’ve improved
• Tools you’ve built
• Problems you’ve solved
• Time or cost savings you’ve created
• Improvements in quality, consistency or delivery

Experience:

Ideally you’ll bring:

• Strong AutoCAD capability
• CAD systems or CAD management experience
• CAD standards and governance experience
• Engineering or multidisciplinary design experience
• Strong troubleshooting skills
• Process improvement and automation experience
• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills
• Experience supporting and mentoring technical users

Exposure to 12D, GIS, Synergy, Autodesk platforms, digital engineering or AI tools will be highly regarded.

This could suit an experienced:

• CAD Systems Specialist
• CAD Manager
• CAD Systems Manager
• Senior CAD Designer with systems experience
• Digital Engineering / CAD Specialist

The Key:

This role is about more than maintaining CAD.

They want someone who can answer:

What did you improve, how did you implement it, and what positive impact did it have on the business?

If that sounds like the work you’ve been doing, we’d like to hear from you.
