- High-level proficiency in AutoCAD and/or Civil 3D, with experience producing construction-standard drawings across a range of civil disciplines
- Familiarity with relevant Australian standards, local council requirements, and infrastructure design guidelines applicable to roads, drainage, water, and sewer projects
- Sound ability to read and interpret engineering drawings, survey plans, contour data, and technical specifications
- Strong attention to detail with the ability to maintain accuracy across high volumes of drawing production and revision
- Effective written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to liaise professionally with engineers, clients, and external stakeholders
- Well-developed time management and organisational skills, with the ability to prioritise competing deadlines across multiple projects
- Proficiency in Microsoft Office applications, including Word and Excel, for the preparation of supporting documentation and reporting

## Preferred Qualifications

- Experience with additional design software such as 12d Model, MicroStation, or GIS-based platforms
- Exposure to hydraulic or stormwater modelling software such as DRAINS, TUFLOW, or XP-SWMM
- Knowledge of ADAC (Asset Design and As Constructed) requirements and local government infrastructure submission processes
- Previous experience working within a consulting engineering or local government environment
- Familiarity with BIM (Building Information Modelling) principles and their application to civil infrastructure projects
- Current driver's licence with the ability to attend site visits or project meetings as required

## Why Join Us?

- Be part of a supportive, collaborative team culture that values technical excellence, professional growth, and a genuine work-life balance
- Access structured professional development opportunities, including training, mentorship, and pathways toward further qualifications or engineering technologist roles
- Work on a diverse portfolio of civil infrastructure projects that make a tangible difference to communities across Australia
