CAD Drafter / Engineering Technician SilencerCo - 3.1 Riverton, UT Job Details Full-time 1 day ago Benefits Paid holidays Health insurance Dental insurance Paid time off Vision insurance 401(k) matching Qualifications Experimental data reports Technical documentation Technical report writing Data summary reports Laboratory reports Full Job Description CAD Drafter/Engineering Technician We are looking for a CAD Drafter / Engineering Technician to support our engineering team by taking on CAD drawing and drafting work, freeing up engineers to focus on higher-level design and problem-solving. This is a support role, not a design-ownership role - success here means the engineering team is measurably more productive because routine drafting, drawing updates, and testing/documentation support are handled well and reliably. Beyond drafting, this person will help with product testing, data collection, and technical report writing at the direction of Engineering or Product Management, and will support engineering changes on legacy products through drawing updates, new drawing creation, and detailed review. A hands-on, detail-oriented problem solver with a solid grasp of GD&T and a genuine interest in firearms will be a strong fit. Key Responsibilities CAD Drafting & Design Support Create, update, and revise CAD drawings and models in SolidWorks to offload drafting and drawing-development work from the engineering team. Support engineering changes on legacy products, including drawing updates, new drawing creation, and detailed drawing review. Apply GD&T correctly and consistently when creating or reviewing drawings. Assist with developing and maintaining drafting standards and templates in support of engineering-led initiatives (not a primary responsibility of this role). Testing, Data Collection & Reporting Support product testing at the direction of Engineering or Product Management, including test setup, execution support, and data collection. Write clear, well-organized technical reports summarizing test results and findings. Maintain accurate records and documentation of test data and results. General Engineering Support Take on drafting and technical tasks delegated by engineers to free up their time for higher-level design work. Apply a hands-on, practical approach to troubleshooting drafting, fixture, or test setup issues. Maintain high attention to detail across all drawing, data, and documentation work. Required Qualifications Associate's degree or technical certification in drafting, CAD, engineering technology, or a related field, or equivalent hands-on experience. Solid CAD skills; experience with SolidWorks desired. Solid understanding of GD&T (ASME Y14.5) is highly preferred. High attention to detail and strong organizational habits. A hands-on, practical approach to problem-solving. Ability to write clear, organized technical reports based on testing and data collection. Preferred Qualifications Familiarity with and interest in firearms design, manufacturing, or use - highly desired. Experience supporting engineering changes on legacy products. Experience with product testing, data collection, or lab/test environments. Exposure to or interest in helping develop drafting standards and documentation. What Success Looks Like Engineers spend less time on routine drafting and more time on design work, because CAD and drawing tasks are reliably offloaded. Legacy product drawings are accurate, current, and correctly reflect engineering changes. Test reports are clear, accurate, and delivered on time to support engineering and product decisions. GD&T is applied correctly and consistently across the drawings this person touches. Benefits Medical, Dental, Vision 401k with Match PTO Paid Holidays
