Marine Drafter/Engineering Support Technician

We are seeking a detail-oriented and hands-on Marine Drafter / Engineering Support Technician to support our Holland production operations. This role bridges engineering design and production, providing CAD-based visual aids, dimensioned drawings, and tooling support that help translate design intent into efficient, high-quality production execution.

The ideal candidate will have strong CAD skills (Rhino), a good understanding of marine construction, and the ability to collaborate closely with production, engineering, and quality teams. This position offers a unique opportunity to learn our processes firsthand—spending the first three months on the production floor before transitioning fully into the drafting and support role—to ensure a deep understanding of our workflows, materials, and standards.

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop 2D and 3D CAD drawings using Rhino and AutoCAD to support marine production projects.


• Create visuals, layouts, and dimensioned drawings to aid production teams in understanding complex assemblies.


• Collaborate with engineers, naval architects, and production leads to translate design concepts into accurate shop-ready documentation.


• Support 3D tooling and fixture development on flat tables for production.


• Ensure all drawings meet company and industry quality, safety, and accuracy standards.


• Work closely with the Quality Management System (QMS) team, assisting in documentation organization and continuous improvement efforts.


• Revise and update designs based on feedback from engineering and shop floor teams.


• Configure CAD files to “built drawings” for bill of materials.


• Prepare bills of materials and assist with process documentation and standardization.


• Support the ongoing development of company drafting standards and best practices.

Training and Onboarding:

• Spend approximately three months on the production floor learning company processes, construction methods, and quality standards before transitioning into the primary drafting/support role.

Qualifications and Requirements:

• Associate’s or bachelor’s degree in Drafting, Marine Engineering, Naval Architecture, Industrial Design, or a related field.


• Proven proficiency in Rhino and familiarity with AutoCAD or other 3D CAD tools.


• Understanding of drafting techniques, manufacturing methods, and marine construction practices.


• Strong visual communication and spatial reasoning skills.


• Ability to interpret and create accurate technical drawings and documentation.


• High attention to detail and organizational skills.


• Collaborative mindset with strong communication skills to interface with engineering, production, and quality teams.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience in the marine and composite boat building/manufacturing industry.


• Exposure to QMS systems and process documentation.


• Familiarity with 3D modeling, tooling, and fixture design.
