    We look forward to welcoming a new team member to M.E. Engineering!

  • Core Responsibilities

    This is a technical, delivery-focused drafting role working closely with engineers and project managers on live industrial projects.

    You will be responsible for:

    • Producing detailed mechanical and piping drawings

    • Developing 3D equipment and piping models using AutoCAD Plant 3D

    • Generating piping isometrics, equipment lists, and fabrication documentation

    • Collaborating directly with engineers to ensure drawings are accurate, buildable, and practical

    • Supporting multiple projects across food, beverage, and pharmaceutical facilities

    This role suits someone who enjoys seeing their designs built, not just issued.

    Skills & Experience Required

    • Strong proficiency in AutoCAD and AutoCAD Plant 3D (essential)

    • 5–10 years’ experience in mechanical piping drafting and 3D modelling

    • Solid understanding of process plant layout, piping routing, and constructability

    • Experience working in a project-driven engineering environment

    • High attention to detail and strong drawing standards

    • Confident written and spoken English communication

    • Ability to work independently while collaborating with a multidisciplinary team

    • Willingness to travel interstate occasionally for project support

    Note: This role is specifically AutoCAD / AutoCAD Plant 3D based. Experience in other platforms (e.g. SolidWorks, Inventor, Revit) alone will not be sufficient.
