Job Description: Inventor Joinery Draftsman Objective An Inventor Joinery Draftsman is responsible for developing precise technical drawings and 3D models for custom joinery projects-such as wardrobes, kitchens, cabinetry, and bespoke furniture-using Autodesk Inventor and related CAD software. This role bridges design intent and production, ensuring that all joinery elements are accurately represented and feasible for manufacturing and installation. Key Responsibilities Create detailed 2D and 3D CAD drawings and models for joinery works, including wardrobes, kitchens, doors, windows, staircases, and custom furniture, using Autodesk Inventor. Interpret architectural and interior design plans to produce shop drawings and material specifications. Develop cutting lists, material schedules, and installation diagrams for workshop and site teams. Collaborate closely with architects, interior designers, project managers, sales, production, and installation teams to ensure design feasibility and alignment with project requirements. Revise drawings and estimates based on client feedback or project changes. Ensure all drawings comply with relevant building codes, safety standards, and industry best practices. Maintain and update drawing files and costing databases for efficiency and consistency. Support procurement with material selection and cost estimation based on drawings. Conduct site visits as needed to measure and assess joinery installations. Address technical issues and provide practical solutions during design development and installation phases. Requirements Education: Diploma / Degree in Engineering 36 years of experience in joinery drafting, preferably within wardrobe, kitchen manufacturing, or fit-out industries. Proficiency in Autodesk Inventor is essential; knowledge of AutoCAD, Revit, or other design software is a plus. Strong understanding of joinery materials, fittings, and construction methods. Demonstrated experience preparing accurate Bills of Quantities (BOQs) and cost sheets. Excellent attention to detail, organizational, and time management skills. Ability to work independently and communicate effectively with multidisciplinary teams. Familiarity with local building codes and supplier networks is advantageous, especially for roles in specific regions e.g., GCC. Preferred Qualifications Degree or diploma in Architecture, Interior Design, Engineering, or a related field. Previous experience in the target market (i.e GCC) and knowledge of local construction practices. Experience with 3D modeling software such as SketchUp is a plus. Core Competencies Technical drawing and 3D modeling Collaboration and communication Problem-solving and adaptability Knowledge of joinery materials and construction methods This role is vital in ensuring that custom joinery projects are delivered with high precision, quality, and efficiency from concept through to installation .
