- Diploma or Associate Degree in Mechanical Engineering Technology, Engineering Drafting, or a closely related discipline — or equivalent trade and industry experience
- Demonstrated experience in a mechanical drafting or engineering technician role within a relevant industry such as manufacturing, construction, mining, or resources
- Proficiency in CAD software, with demonstrated capability in 2D and 3D modelling tools such as AutoCAD, SolidWorks, or similar platforms
- Sound understanding of Australian engineering standards, codes of practice, and workplace health and safety requirements
- Ability to interpret and produce detailed engineering drawings, schematics, and technical specifications to a high standard
- Strong numerical and analytical skills, with experience carrying out material quantity estimates and cost calculations
- Competent in the use of MS Office Suite for reporting, documentation, and communication purposes
- Effective written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to liaise clearly with engineers, contractors, and project stakeholders
- High level of attention to detail and a systematic approach to managing multiple tasks and competing deadlines
- Ability to work both independently and as part of a collaborative engineering team in a dynamic project environment

## Preferred Qualifications

- Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or Engineering Technology
- Experience working on large-scale industrial, infrastructure, or resources projects within an Australian context
- Familiarity with hydraulic and pneumatic system design and documentation
- Knowledge of GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing) principles and their application in technical drawings
- Experience using document management and project collaboration tools such as ProjectWise, Procore, or similar platforms
- Professional membership with Engineers Australia or a relevant industry body
- Experience in a supervisory or lead draftsperson capacity, including mentoring junior technical staff
