Rochester, NY (Hybrid/Remote Flexibility Considered) Full-Time | Permanent
Overview
We're seeking a Senior 3D CAD Designer to join a highly specialized engineering team designing custom modular process systems for industries such as chemical, pharmaceutical, and energy.
This is a hands-on design role where you'll own the full 3D modeling lifecycle-from concept through fabrication-working closely with engineers to bring complex process systems to life.
If you enjoy building real-world systems (not just drawings) and want to see your designs manufactured and implemented, this is a strong fit.
What You'll Be Doing
Lead 3D modeling and design of complete process systems (equipment, piping, structural steel, instrumentation)
Partner with Process/Project Engineers to develop:
P&IDs (Piping & Instrumentation Diagrams)
PFDs (Process Flow Diagrams)
Build detailed system models using:
AutoCAD Plant 3D
Autodesk Advance Steel (plus)
Design modular/skid-mounted systems of varying scale and complexity
Bills of Materials (BOMs) for procurement and manufacturing
Collaborate with fabrication teams to:
Troubleshoot design issues
Implement real-time changes during build
Develop as-built models and documentation post-fabrication
Support CAD standards, templates, and system libraries
What You Bring
10+ years of 3D CAD design experience in process, piping, or industrial systems
Strong expertise in:
AutoCAD Plant 3D (required)
3D piping design (must-have)
Experience designing:
Process equipment layouts
Utility & process piping systems
Ability to interpret and work from:
Equipment specs
Instrumentation data
Engineering diagrams
Strong collaboration skills with engineers, vendors, and fabrication teams
Experience with Autodesk Advance Steel
Familiarity with pipe stress analysis tools (e.g., Caesar II)
Exposure to Smart P&IDs
Background in chemical/process industries preferred
WORK ENVIRONMENT
Primarily office-based with occasional shop/fabrication floor exposure
Opportunity to see your designs built and implemented
Relocation support available
Remote flexibility considered for highly experienced candidates
