Please note that any industry or equipment specific knowledge required will be provided through training.

The role will entail the following:

• Designing and draughting of the equipment that is used in the above-mentioned applications. This will require a 3D model to be drawn from concept or modification of an existing design. Drawings will consist of a complete 3D model, set of manufacturing drawings, including, General Arrangement, Plant layouts, Laser Cutting, etc.

• Drawing pipework and ancillary items to tie process equipment together.

• The following are items that typically need to be considered during modelling:

• Transportation: Cradles, Rigging methods, Container constraints, customer site constraints, truck layouts.
