Position Overview
Arkwright Industrial is a robotic pipe prefabrication company. At our Jacksonville, TX shop, we turn engineered designs into fabrication-ready pipe spools using robotic welding, CNC plasma cutting, and a fully digital BIM-to-fabrication workflow (Revit → fabrication management → shop floor).
We are seeking a detail-driven Piping Detailer to model piping systems in Revit and AutoCAD and to produce the fabrication-ready spool drawings, isometrics, BOMs, and cut/weld data that drive our shop. The role focuses on translating engineering designs into accurate, constructible models and shop drawings that meet project specifications, codes, and quality standards.
We welcome candidates across the full experience range — from recent graduates and early-career detailers eager to learn and grow, through to seasoned professionals who can step in, take ownership, and help mentor the team. If you have technical skills and the drive, we want to hear from you.
Pay
- Entry-level / Junior: $60,000–$75,000
- Mid-level: $75,000–$90,000
- Senior: $90,000–$120,000
Key Responsibilities
- Develop detailed Revit models and 2D/3D drawings for process piping systems based on engineering inputs and project specifications.
- Create fabrication and shop drawings, piping isometrics, spool sheets, and coordination drawings for the shop floor and field teams.
- Generate bills of material (BOMs) and fabrication/cut data that feed the cutting and welding equipment.
- Review engineering drawings, specifications, and material lists for completeness and constructability; flag discrepancies and propose solutions.
- Maintain drawing standards, file organization, and revision control; support document deliverables and transmittals.
- Participate in design reviews and coordination meetings, providing detailing input and implementing feedback promptly.
- Help build and document detailing standards as the company scales.
Qualifications
- Certificate, associate, or bachelor’s degree in CAD/drafting technology, Mechanical Engineering Technology, or a related field; equivalent hands-on experience will also be considered.
- Proficiency in Revit; experience with AutoCAD and pipe modeling tools is strongly preferred (a portfolio or sample drawing set is welcome).
- Working knowledge of — or genuine eagerness to learn — process piping, including pipe routing, fittings, supports, and isometric drawing conventions.
- Understanding of construction and fabrication practices and relevant industry codes and standards.
- Strong attention to detail and problem-solving skills, with the ability to manage multiple tasks and meet deadlines.
- Excellent communication and coordination skills; ability to work collaboratively with engineers and multidisciplinary shop teams.
- Willingness to travel to the Jacksonville, TX fabrication shop and participate in shop checks as needed.
Preferred Qualifications
- Piping, mechanical, or fabrication detailing experience, including any lead or mentoring experience.
- Experience with fabrication and coordination software such as Stratus, PypeServer, Fabrication CADmep, or Navisworks, and familiarity with robotic welding or CNC fabrication workflows.
- Autodesk Certified Professional credentials (Revit or AutoCAD) and knowledge of piping materials, schedules, and weld mapping.
