Location: El Mirage, AZ
Pay: $17.00/hour
Schedule: Full-time (90-day contract-to-hire opportunity)

Overview:
We are looking to bring on a Drafting Intern to support our team in El Mirage, AZ. This role is structured as a 90-day introductory period with the opportunity to transition into a full-time position based on performance and team fit. Several of our current full-time drafters started through this same path.

This is an ideal opportunity for someone interested in learning drafting within a structural steel environment and gaining hands-on experience.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Assist the drafting team with creating and updating drawings

  • Learn internal drafting standards, tools, and workflows

Qualifications:

  • Strong ability to visualize and interpret drawings (required)
  • Basic understanding of drafting concepts or willingness to learn
  • Detail-oriented with good organizational skills
  • Comfortable working in a team environment

Preferred Background:

  • Exposure to Architecture, Engineering, Technology, Game Design, or Math-related fields
  • Any hands-on experience in machining, drafting, or steel fabrication is a plus
  • Prior internship or entry-level experience in a related field is helpful but not required
  • Degree is not required but may be considered a plus

What We're Looking For:

  • Someone flexible, coachable, and eager to learn
  • A candidate early in their career without deeply ingrained habits
  • Ability to look at a drawing and understand what it represents in real-world application

Growth Opportunity:

  • Successful candidates may be considered for a full-time Drafting position after the initial 90-day period
