Tazergy has an immediate opening for a CAD Designer!
The CAD Designer is responsible for leading the development and modification of advanced 2D and 3D technical drawings and design documentation for low-voltage and telecommunications projects. This position requires independent judgment, application of engineering and design principles, and collaboration with engineers, architects, and project managers to shape project outcomes. The CAD Designer exercises discretion in interpreting technical requirements, recommending design approaches, and ensuring deliverables align with client objectives, industry standards, and applicable codes.
Tazergy designs and installs low voltage infrastructures, specializing in systems for Senior Housing communities. It's one thing to know technology, it's another to be able to combine that knowledge with the experience that comes from working as Construction Managers. That's Tazergy's edge.
