Mr. Bhoopathiraju has been designing CAD-based projects since 2000. He is a certified electrical engineer. He has been designing mainly on AutoCAD for the US and Germany-based clients. He believes that his planning and organizational skills, along with problem-solving attitude with a competence in industry knowledge has helped him carve a successful career.
He has been working in data conversion for German clients on AutoCAD and Revit. He has an established clientele that’s consistently growing and a built up reputation due to providing quality professional services in the field of CAD.
With a proven track record of working with architects, engineers, manufacturers and individuals, he welcomes partnering with businesses at every stage of his career in CAD-based development.
He provides the following CAD-based services:
• Map Conversion
• GIS and software development for international clients, keeping to highly demanding time schedules.
• AutoCAD designing and drafting.
He has been working as a CAD analyst and CAD engineer with companies in India since 2000.
Since 2012, he has been working in Hyderabad as the Project Lead for a company that provides multidisciplinary services such as CAD, CAM, map conversion, GIS and software development for international clients.
Since 2009 to 2012, he has been with a major provider of environmental and infrastructure support services as a Senior CAD analyst.
Since 2000 to 2009, he has been a Senior CAD engineer for a software company in Hyderabad.
Of all the projects that he has worked on, the most interesting CAD project that he has ever worked on was the one where he had to work for hospital and hotel building services. It includes HVAC, electrical and plumbing service with coordination.
His favorite software is AutoCAD. He likes the filter command most, and likes to use it to search any object in a sheet easily.
A few of his favorite projects are as follows:
He worked on a project for an Institute in Taiwan for twelve months on AutoCAD. His role involved preparation of all general arrangement and rebar shop drawings, preparation of site plan, survey layout and scheme with coordinates.
The challenge was to maintain and control the documents of drawings and submission to the client, which he successfully carried out.
For another project, he worked for commando facilities in Afghanistan. He worked for three months on AutoCAD. His role included drafting in CAD, electric light plans, telecommunications networks, automatic fire detection systems and HVAC fittings plans. He was involved in designing a site with required buildings.
He worked for a Project on architectural plans, elevations and sections. He designed using AutoCAD 2000. The role involved editing and finalizing.
He worked on a project for a company in Germany where he had to design using Auto CAD 2000. His role included editing and finalizing. This was an architectural project consisting of floor plans, elevations and sections. He processed these drawings indicating walls, windows, and doors. The text was designed in German. The layer names for the objects were also in German. He also processed room-polygons to easily find an area by using AutoCAD List command.
For a project in Parcel Mapping (GIS), he worked for a client from Italy. He designed using AutoCAD. His role involved editing and finalizing. He was involved in the preparation of parcels, roads and water bodies. The drawing were converted from image format to vector format. He designed using AutoCAD MAP 2004 and Wagis2002. He performed the conversion, editing and finalizing.
He has worked on a project for San Antonio Water System for two months. He was involved in drafting with a team. He prepared overview sheets, plans, sections, cross sections, longitudinal sections of sewer line in AutoCAD and Civil 3D.

Mr. Raileanu has over twenty years’ experience in CAD-based solutions designing aluminum and steel machinery, fabrication drawings, processing and part designing.
He creates designs for HVAC systems. He has designed in the following areas:
• metal fabrication
• processing and part design
• drafting and MS Office
• 2D & 3D geometry creation and manipulation
• mechanical & sheet metal structural design
• product engineering and mechanical design
He has been working with AutoCAD since college days, however he works mainly on SolidWorks to design heat and ac frames, sheet metals and enclosures. He has worked with AutoCAD since 1989, however in 2004 he discovered SolidWorks and since then he has been designing 3D models and drawings only with SolidWorks. As a proficient user of SolidWorks, he believes SolidWorks has the best user interface and intuitive, reliable FEA (Failure Effects Analysis) features.
Since 2017, he has been working with a world-class manufacturer of dehumidifiers in Georgia. He has been designing and developing innovative products and production systems to support engineering requirements. He has been using SolidWorks extensively for all product designs, weldments and frames, work assemblies and subassemblies and creation of job fabrication binders for manufacturing team members. This includes all necessary part files, bend drawings, appropriate dimensional data, general overview layout, exploded views of critical component assemblies.
Since 2016, he has been working in another company, in development of anatomically-precise 3D and 4D surface imaging systems. He works with R&D products, responsible for creating and maintaining any CAD documentation required by sales, and developing detailed engineering drawings for system design, components, cabling, and prototyping 3D printing products.
From 2015 to 2016, he also provided CAD support for a pallet rack manufacturer in Georgia that offers a full range of services from design to installation of storage solutions for many industries and materials. He designed layouts and drawings for estimating, approval, permitting and fabrication.
One of his most challenging projects was one that required him to design and build a video electronic enclosure that had to be light and also appeal to specific customers in that field (medical devices). The challenges were to make it less heavy than the previous design, to fit all electronic components required, to have a good maintenance access and to look visually appealing.
He built a mobile dehumidifier unit with a small footprint to fit other competitors design, easy maintenance access, sturdy, structurally safe, outdoor proof and easy to maneuver. He also brought some new concepts to the design to challenge the competitors’ design, such as less energy consumption (less welding) and ability to stacking during shipping or storage.
He feels that the best thing about working as a CAD draftsman is that he gets to work from home.
He uses Skype and phone to communicate with clients. He shares his screen with clients for a variety of different purposes. He also uses Webex and GoToMeeting as he finds these tools to be very effective between people at different locations. He thinks they solve most of the issues related to projects. When required, however, he also meets clients face to face. He does not believe that issues can be solved only by face-to-face meetings, but in certain situations where a personal approach is required face-to-face meetings may be more appropriate.
