AutoCAD Jobs
 

Hi all, I am interested in pursuing a career in AutoCAD (specifically Autodesk Inventor or AutoCAD). I currently work with engineers on my FIRST team to design the mobility platform. Is there a position that would allow me to do the some sort of thing (sit down with an engineer and draw up the parts) in the job market? I am having trouble finding a "job title" that suits my interests. I am pretty sure most companies have a "CAD guy" that works with the engineers to refine/test designs on the computer and then make prototypes. If anyone has any information and works in this field, I would be happy to hear about it. :)

The company I work for (Itron) has the position of mechanical designer. Your description fits that job description to a T. But hey, why not go for the engineer role! The pays better and you get to play the inventor as well! :)
