• Maintain proper model hierarchy, naming conventions, tagging, attributes, and database integrity in accordancewith project and E3D standards.
• Produce and update isometric drawings, general arrangement drawings, orthographic views, and other model-generated deliverables as required.
• Verify equipment, piping, structural, and instrumentation components.
• Support model corrections, update workflows, record findings and provide clear technical review comments.
• Collaborate with engineering, design, and information management teams.
• Participate in quality assurance and model verification activities.

Accountabilities:

• Ensure adherence to all company requirements – SOR, technical specifications, and relevant company specifications and rules – throughout the project.
• The E3D Model Designer is responsible for developing and maintaining accurate 3D plant models using AVEVA E3D in line with project specifications, engineering standards, and design requirements.
• The role involves interpreting engineering documents such as P&IDs, equipment layouts, piping specifications, and vendor drawings to produce practical and constructible models.
• The designer works closely with multidisciplinary engineering teams to coordinate layouts, identify and resolve clashes, incorporate design changes, and ensure the model accurately reflects the latest approved engineering information.
• The role also supports model reviews, drawing production, material take-offs, and quality checks while ensuring all deliverables meet project, safety, quality, and schedule requirements.
