CAD Technician

View this career for different education levels:

A CAD Technician is someone who uses special computer software, called CAD (Computer Aided Design), to create detailed drawings and plans. Imagine building a house or designing a new car. Before anything is actually built, someone needs to draw out exactly what it will look like and how all the pieces fit together. That's where a CAD Technician comes in! They turn ideas and sketches from engineers or architects into precise digital drawings that others can follow. Your day might involve working on a computer all day, using CAD software to create 2D (flat) or 3D (like a model) designs. You could be drawing up plans for a new school, designing parts for a machine, or even planning the layout of pipes for a plumbing system. You'll need to be very accurate, good at understanding instructions, and enjoy working with computers. It's a really important job because without these detailed plans, it would be much harder to build anything complex safely and correctly.
