This is skilled CAD (Computer Aided Design) system work in the preparation of engineering drawings. Work of this class requires the application of engineering, manual drafting, and computer-based drafting skills and knowledge in preparing site, mechanical, architectural, and electrical drawings. Employees normally work from rough sketches and outlines, models or oral instructions, and are expected to work out details on a CAD System in completing drafting assignments. Employees in this class work with much independence in carrying out the assignments, although technical advise and assistance is available when needed. Work is reviewed by periodic checks of progress and by evaluation of completed assignments.
