Job Title: Electro-Mechanical Skid BIM Detailer
Location: Remote
Employment Type: Full-Time
Salary: $40.00 - $55.00 hourly
Company Introduction
This opportunity is with one of the nation's largest mechanical and electrical contracting firms, with more than 75 years of experience delivering innovative HVAC, plumbing, piping, sheet metal, and electrical solutions. The company specializes in major construction projects for hyperscale data centers, hospitals, life sciences facilities, and high-rise commercial buildings, earning a reputation for safety, precision, and high-quality workmanship.
The company fosters a collaborative, growth-focused culture where employees refine their skills, share knowledge, and advance within a supportive team environment.
Role Overview
The Electro-Mechanical Skid Detailer creates comprehensive 2D and 3D drawings for industrial skid packages, covering both mechanical and electrical scope. This is a dual-discipline manufacturing role: mechanical skid frames, piping, and equipment layouts on one side, and electrical schematics, panel layouts, and power one-lines on the other, all translated into fabrication-ready drawings and accurate bills of material.
Working closely with engineers and manufacturing personnel, the Detailer ensures designs are manufacturable, meet specification, and move cleanly from model to shop floor. This is a fully remote role with regular collaboration across distributed engineering, fabrication, and project teams.
Core Responsibilities
- Design and draft mechanical components, including skid frames, piping, valves, supports, and equipment layouts, using AutoCAD
- Generate detailed electrical drawings, including schematics, panel layouts, and power one-lines
- Create detailed fabrication drawings, including isometric views, for shop assembly and wiring
- Develop 3D models of components and full system renderings for visualization and client review
- Translate engineering specifications and concepts into accurate, manufacturable working documents
- Produce accurate Bills of Materials (BOMs) for all designs
- Review and revise existing drawings to reflect changes, and create as-built documentation
- Coordinate mechanical and electrical scope to eliminate conflicts before fabrication
- Collaborate with engineers and manufacturing personnel to ensure designs are manufacturable and meet all specifications
Required Background
- 2 + years of experience as an AutoCAD Drafter, Detailer, or Designer with a focus on industrial skid packages (electrical and mechanical)
- Proven experience creating both electrical and mechanical drawings for assembly and wiring
- Expert-level proficiency with AutoCAD
- Experience with 3D modeling and rendering in Autodesk software
- Strong understanding of electrical schematics, power one-lines, and panel layouts
- Ability to read, interpret, and create detailed fabrication drawings and Bills of Materials
- Working knowledge of mechanical skid fabrication, piping, and equipment layout
- Strong communication and problem-solving skills to collaborate effectively across engineering and manufacturing
- Ability to work independently in a fully remote setting
- Authorization to work in the United States; sponsorship is not available for this position
- Familiarity with industry standards such as NEC and UL (Preferred)
- Experience with other CAD or Autodesk software such as Inventor or Revit (Preferred)
