• Coordinate with engineering, project management, and procurement teams to ensure drafting outputs align with project requirements and design intent.
• Apply drafting and documentation standards to deliver accurate, compliant, and coordinated drawings for project delivery.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering or related field.
• Experience in civil drafting or design, ideally within infrastructure, energy, or construction projects.
• Strong proficiency in AutoCAD Civil 3D, with experience in civil design and drafting of pavements, earthworks and drainage elements.

• Strong attention to detail in producing accurate, coordinated technical drawings.
• Ability to work collaboratively across multi‑disciplinary project teams.
• Good communication skills, with capability to interpret technical instructions and translate them into drafting outputs.
• Experience or interest in renewable energy project environments
