In this Document Control position, you will be specifically dealing with Drawing and CAD files. You will support our Williams Design Support Services (DSS) department with Drawing Librarian tasks. These tasks include checking drawings in and out from our Master Drawings Libraries, performing title block swaps, PDF from CAD creations, extracting drawing metadata, and running scripts and tools to edit drawing packages in bulk.
The Drawing Support Team ensures consistency and accuracy in title block metadata for the DSS department. On a daily basis, we use this metadata to populate and manage various external databases that support project teams, technical services, and operations across the enterprise. Our focus is on automation and processes, allowing designers to concentrate on designing while we handle the data.
As part of the Drawing Support team, you’ll spend most of your time working with tools such as Excel, Aconex, SharePoint, OpenText, and DvTDM. In Excel, proficiency in building efficient formulas is essential. We regularly use VBA macros and Excel formulas to manage files and manipulate data for uploading into the different databases. Additionally, understanding bulk loading and creating bulk load sheets for databases (such as Aconex, OpenText, and DvTDM) is crucial. Quality, efficiency, and consistency are fundamental aspects of this role, especially considering the potentially high volume of drawings we handle each day.
