The posting

We are looking for a talented and experienced CAD Systems Manager to join our team. The ideal candidate will be a seasoned Civil Designer or CAD Manager with strong expertise in AutoCAD Civil 3D. This is an outstanding opportunity to join an expanding firm with multiple Best Places to Work recognitions. The CAD Systems Manager will play a pivotal role in enhancing design efficiency, ensuring consistency in project deliverables, and driving the adoption of best practices across our organization, ultimately supporting our commitment to high-quality service and innovation for clients.

This position is eligible for a hybrid work arrangement based out of one of our office locations in Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Ohio, Kentucky, or Texas. For highly qualified candidates located in the Midwest but not within reasonable commuting distance of one of our offices, a remote work arrangement with periodic travel may be considered.

In this role, you will manage AutoCAD standards and workspaces across multiple states, with a primary focus on Civil 3D. You will be instrumental in establishing and implementing standards and workflows for modeling and plan/production organization-wide. This includes developing and maintaining standards for various public agencies, such as departments of transportation (DOTs) and other public clients. Additionally, you will train and mentor CAD users on core application skills and standards. As the CAD Systems Manager, you will also assess workflows, recommend process improvements, and work closely with IT to upgrade and maintain Autodesk Products and Add-ins.

Lochmueller Group is a growing engineering consulting firm with an emphasis on infrastructure. We provide multi-disciplined services for a variety of public agencies and private entities, including transportation design; water resources design; environmental analysis & permitting; construction engineering & inspection; traffic engineering & transportation planning; surveying; and land acquisition & appraisal.

This is a great place to build a career and grow with a company that is dedicated to quality and service.

Key responsibilities of this position will include:

  • Standards Development and Management: Develop, implement, and maintain AutoCAD and Civil 3D standards, workflows, and best practices for modeling and plan production across multiple states. Create and support standards for departments of transportation and other public-agency clients. Maintain Civil 3D templates, styles, workspaces, tool palettes, plot styles, and configuration files to ensure consistency across projects and offices. Develop a layer manager file to standardize utility colors for transportation projects, and collaborate with survey teams to establish separate base files for right-of-way, property lines, easements, and section lines.
  • Training and Mentorship: Participating in the development and delivery of training for CAD users on core Civil 3D application skills, standards, and workflows. Providing ongoing mentorship and support to CAD users to enhance proficiency and adherence to standards. Developing and maintaining technical documentation, standards manuals, deployment documentation, training materials, and user guides.

Support Autodesk user and license management, and collaborate with the Engineering Applications Manager on software licensing, budgeting, procurement, and strategic technology initiatives. Work with project managers and design teams to support efficient project delivery, and participate in production work as needed to maintain current application knowledge and practical skills.
  • Technology Strategy and Software Evaluation: Evaluate Autodesk products, add-ins, and emerging design technologies through software reviews, pilot programs, and other technology initiatives. Recommend appropriate adoption, implementation, standardization, and long-term support strategies for design technology platforms.
