CAD Design Engineer

Job Description

Job description Job Responsibilities: Design & Drafting: Utilize CAD software (AutoCAD, SolidWorks, or similar) to create detailed designs for solar power systems, including layouts for solar panels, inverters, wiring, and electrical components. Develop accurate 2D and 3D CAD models for solar installations based on site-specific data, including roof plans, shading analysis, and system sizing. Create electrical schematics and wiring diagrams for solar installations, ensuring compliance with industry standards, local regulations, and safety codes. System Integration: Collaborate with engineers to integrate solar panels with inverters, storage systems, and other electrical components. Design and optimize the integration of photovoltaic (PV) systems into buildings, considering factors like orientation, tilt angle, and shading. Site Assessment: Review and analyse site-specific data (e.g., roof dimensions, load-bearing capacity, solar exposure, shading) to inform design decisions. Provide design recommendations based on factors such as site conditions, budget constraints, and energy generation goals. Documentation & Reporting: Prepare design documentation and project plans for permitting, installation, and inspection purposes. Ensure all designs are compliant with local and national regulations, including safety and building codes. Provide detailed bills of materials (BOM) and other relevant documents for project stakeholders. Collaboration & Communication: Work closely with project managers, engineers, and installers to ensure the design is feasible and meets client requirements. Communicate design changes and revisions to project teams and clients. Assist in troubleshooting design issues that arise during the installation process. Qualifications: Education: Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Renewable Energy, or a related field (or equivalent experience). Experience: Proven experience in solar system design, particularly with CAD software (e.g., AutoCAD, Revit, SolidWorks). Experience designing solar PV systems and understanding of electrical system integration. Knowledge of solar energy principles, system sizing, and layout optimization. Skills & Competencies: Proficient in CAD software and design tools. Strong understanding of electrical schematics, wiring, and solar system components. Excellent problem-solving skills and attention to detail. Ability to manage multiple design projects simultaneously. Knowledge of local regulations and building codes for solar installations. Familiarity with PV software tools such as PVsyst or Helioscope is a plus. Certifications: Solar Design certification (e.g., NABCEP Solar PV Design Professional) is highly preferred. Additional Information: Competitive salary and incentives/benefits package. Opportunities for professional development and certification. Flexible working hours and potential for remote work options.
