What is the Opportunity?

AUE is seeking a Project Technician to play a key role in designing and delivering telecom infrastructure drawings that meet municipal and client standards. You'll work with AutoCAD and GIS data to produce permit-ready packages, construction sets, and as-builts, while collaborating across teams to ensure accuracy, consistency, and timely submissions.

What You'll Do Here

• Create and update telecom drawing packages (Municipal Consent/ROW, Aerial Permit, IFC, and asBuilt) in AutoCAD using AUE titleblocks and sheet standards (i.e., Conduit Plan, Cable Plan, 500/601 sheets).
• Draft plan/profile views, crosssections, details, and traffic control sketches (TTC/TMP) in accordance with municipal and client standards.
• Apply layer, line type, symbology, annotation, and plotting standards to ensure consistent, high-quality output across programs.
• Incorporate survey and Geomatics inputs (LiDAR, RTK, IKE pole audits) and client/municipal GIS data into base drawings; validate scales, coordinate systems, and references.
• Assemble complete permit packages using approved checklists (forms, fees, signatures, drawings, TTC/TMP, locates, photos) and submit through Document Control or municipal portals.
• Respond to reviewer comments, update drawings, and close CRM items ahead of resubmission; coordinate with Designers, QC, and Permitting to maintain momentum.
• Prepare clean construction issue sets (IFC) and support field redlines for timely asbuilt updates and project closeout.
• Follow internal QA/QC checklists; perform selfchecks on geometry, callouts, quantities, and titleblock metadata prior to routing for formal review.
• Maintain organized file structures, Xrefs, and version control in alignment with AUE standards.
• Leverage ABD/AUD templates and rules where applicable to support consistency and reduce rework; prepare export sets (DWG, PDF, DWF, KMZ) as required.
• Contribute to template and detail library improvements and document lessons learned to support continuous improvement.
• Familiarity with client platforms (i.e., SpatialNET) and ancillary tools (i.e., SPIDA Calc markup packages, IKE Office) is considered an asset.

What You Bring to the Team

• 1–3 years of experience producing telecom or utility drawings (FTTH, OSP, ISP); recent graduates with strong portfolios are encouraged to apply.
• Proficiency in AutoCAD with exposure to ABD/AUD, ESRI/GIS, and client platforms (i.e., SpatialNET) considered an asset.
• Understanding of municipal permitting requirements and telecom symbology; strong attention to detail and organizational skills.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office tools (Excel, Word, SharePoint); demonstrated commitment to safety, quality, and meeting deadlines.
• Post-secondary education in Electrical or Civil Engineering, or an Architectural program, is considered an asset.
