About Imperatore Corporation:

Imperatore Corporation is a leading provider of design, detailing, and installation services for structural steel projects. With a reputation for precision, innovation, and excellence, we take pride in transforming complex concepts into reality. Our collaborative team values professionalism, creativity, and continuous growth.

Position Overview:

We’re seeking an experienced and detail-oriented  CAD Designer / Draftsperson  with a solid background in  structural steel detailing to join our dynamic team. This is a full-time, on-site position that offers more than just a drafting desk. We’re looking for someone who is eager for a variety of challenges and wants to expand their role beyond traditional detailing.

This is not a 24/7 detailing job —we welcome applicants who may feel burnt out from repetitive work and are ready for a more engaging, multifaceted role.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Create detailed 2D and 3D CAD drawings for structural steel fabrication and installation
  • Coordinate civil, structural, and mechanical components for cohesive integration
  • Prepare documentation for crane lift planning, equipment placement, and access logistics
  • Contribute to permitting processes and support design tasks as needed
  • Collaborate with engineers, project managers, and field personnel to meet project goals
  • Revise designs based on field and management feedback
  • Maintain organized records of all drawings, revisions, and project documentation
  • Assist in estimating, answering phones, and providing general office support
  • Support project managers with opportunities to grow into an assistant project management role

Required Qualifications:

  • Proficiency in AutoCAD or equivalent CAD tools (2D/3D)
  • 5+ years of structural steel detailing experience
  • Strong grasp of civil, mechanical, and structural engineering fundamentals
  • Ability to produce highly accurate technical drawings
  • Excellent attention to detail, communication, and problem-solving skills
  • Capable of managing multiple tasks with minimal supervision
  • Must be able to work on-site (remote work is not available)

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Associate’s or Bachelor’s degree in Drafting, Engineering, Design, or a related field
  • Prior experience in the structural steel industry
  • Familiarity with industry codes, standards, and best practices

What We Offer:

  • Competitive hourly rate
  • 401(k) with company match
  • Health and dental insurance
  • Paid time off and retirement plan
  • Support for professional development
  • A diverse workload and a collaborative, supportive work environment

Work Schedule:

  • 8-hour shift
  • Monday to Friday
  • On-site in Cranston, RI (relocation required if not local)
