The Opportunity
Thermo Systems is growing and we are adding an AutoCAD Controls Designer to support automation and control system projects across District Energy, Life Sciences, and Mission Critical facilities.

This role focuses on developing accurate AutoCAD drawings and electrical design documentation for industrial control systems, instrumentation, and automation infrastructure. Working alongside experienced designers, engineers, and project managers, you will help produce high-quality drawing packages used for installation, commissioning, and long-term facility operations.

This position offers strong mentorship and exposure to industrial automation, control panels, instrumentation systems, and electrical design, making it an excellent opportunity for designers who want to grow their career within controls engineering and automation.

What You’ll Do

Core Responsibilities

Create and revise AutoCAD drawings and technical documentation for industrial control systems and automation projects.
Develop and maintain drawing packages including control panel layouts, electrical schematics, P&IDs, loop diagrams, and panel risers.
Produce mechanical and electrical installation drawings for field construction and commissioning.
Support development of as-built documentation following project completion.
Maintain organized drawing packages and documentation in accordance with company standards and project requirements.
Perform drawing reviews and self-checks to ensure accuracy, consistency, and quality.
Identify design conflicts or technical issues early and collaborate with project teams to resolve them.

Collaboration & Communication

Work closely with controls engineers, project managers, and technical teams to ensure drawing packages align with project scope and requirements.
Coordinate with cross-functional teams to maintain alignment with project schedules and deliverables.
Communicate design updates, revisions, and technical issues clearly and proactively.
Support project documentation and drawing revisions throughout the project lifecycle.

Quality, Safety & Process

Follow company policies, Quality Management System (QMS) requirements, and established safety standards.
Ensure drawings meet applicable engineering standards and internal documentation requirements.
Deliver accurate, high-quality work with strong attention to detail.
Identify opportunities to improve design processes, drawing standards, and documentation practices.

What We’re Looking For

Education & Experience

Associate degree in Drafting, Engineering Technology, Electrical Technology, or related technical discipline, or equivalent professional experience.
Typically 2–5 years of experience producing AutoCAD drawings in controls, electrical, industrial automation, or engineering environments.
Experience supporting industrial control systems, electrical design, or instrumentation projects preferred.

Skills & Qualifications

Proficiency with AutoCAD (AutoCAD Electrical experience is a plus).
Experience producing electrical schematics, control panel drawings, instrumentation diagrams, or P&IDs.
Familiarity with industrial automation systems, PLC panels, and instrumentation preferred.
Working knowledge of Microsoft Windows and Microsoft Office tools.
Strong attention to detail and ability to manage multiple drawing packages simultaneously.
Ability to work independently while collaborating effectively with engineers and project teams.
Strong communication and problem-solving skills.
Commitment to quality, safety, and accountability.

What You’ll Get

Competitive compensation with annual bonus opportunity
401(k) with company match
Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage with low-cost options
Paid time off and sick leave
Tuition reimbursement and professional credential support
In-house and external technical training opportunities
