Per-MW pricing, regional variance, and cost drivers for owners scoping hyperscale & AI builds.
Salary benchmarks across the 14 mission-critical disciplines.
Hire CAD Technicians — sometimes titled CAD Designer — who keep drawing production moving: clean AutoCAD and Civil 3D output to company standards, red-line pickups turned same week, as-builts the field can trust, and shop drawing support that survives review. Verified drafting speed and layer discipline, not just a software list.
A structured process for the drafting hire — whether the title on your org chart reads CAD Technician or CAD Designer, the output requirement is the same.
30-minute call. Align on platform (AutoCAD, Civil 3D, MicroStation), discipline focus, drawing standards, production volume, and start date.
Within 2 weeks we introduce 3–5 CAD Technicians with verified drafting output. References from design managers and engineers included.
Every placement carries a replacement guarantee.
We verify sheets-per-week reality with the managers who reviewed the work — drafting pace, pickup accuracy, and rework rate — not self-scored software proficiency.
Reference-verified layer standards, xref management, plot styles, and title block discipline. Drawings the next technician can open and keep working without archaeology.
Civil site packages, electrical one-lines, process P&ID support, and equipment shop drawings each need different drafting instincts. We match candidates — CAD Technician or CAD Designer background — to your discipline.
Verified working depth in AutoCAD (Civil 3D or MicroStation as required) — blocks, xrefs, sheet sets, dynamic blocks.
Reference-verified adherence to CAD standards — layers, lineweights, annotation, and title block conventions.
Reference-verified pickup speed and accuracy on engineer and field mark-ups.
Verified as-built and record drawing production the field and owner could rely on.
Verified fabrication and shop drawing support where trade or manufacturing scope applies.
Reference-verified deadline reliability under issue schedules — from the people who set them.
We’ll help scope the role on the call — platform, discipline, standards, volume.
Time to shortlist is typically 2 weeks. Total time to placement is typically 3–4 weeks.
Most US CAD Technician and CAD Designer salaries land between $55,000 and $85,000 base. Civil 3D depth and mission-critical project history push toward the top of the range.
Pricing depends on engagement model.
Mostly title convention. CAD Designer sometimes signals more design judgment — laying out solutions, not just drafting them. We qualify candidates against your actual scope, whichever title you use.
CAD is 2D drawing production; a BIM Technician works in the Revit model. Teams migrating to model-based delivery often hire hybrids — tell us and we will screen for both.
Yes. Every placement carries a replacement guarantee.
30-minute scoping conversation. We’ll review the CAD Technician role, platform, discipline focus, and production volume — then start sourcing.
