* Produce coordinated elevation sets showing relevant heights, interfaces, and finishes.
* Develop CAD drawings for architectural, electrical, and engineering applications.
* Apply consistent templates, layers, symbols, scales, line weights, and drawing conventions.
* Coordinate information between plans, elevations, sections, details, and schedules.
* Prepare geometric dimensioning and tolerancing callouts for manufacturing documentation.
* Confirm that tolerance information is complete and aligned with design intent.
* Develop multi-sheet electrical schematics according to applicable drafting practices.
* Add circuit references, component identifiers, connection data, and cross-sheet links.
* Review schematics to ensure electrical information remains consistent across the package.
* Create and assess PCB layouts for functional performance and manufacturability.
* Coordinate PCB information with the relevant building and electrical-system documentation.
* Identify dimensional conflicts, incomplete details, duplicate references, and design inconsistencies.
* Submit clear technical queries when project requirements require clarification.
* Incorporate approved review comments and track subsequent drawing changes.
