High Salary

“For CAD Design Engineers with 4 to 5 years of experience, the average CTC ranges from 5 Lakhs to 10 Lakhs. However, CAD Developers with the same experience can command CTCs of 20 Lakhs to 30 Lakhs.”

Good Demand

“While CAD Design is a well-known skill among mechanical engineers, there is intense competition for design jobs. On the other hand, CAD Automation & Customization is a niche expertise, with only a few engineers.”

Easier To Learn

“While CAD Design is generally easier to learn, CAD Automation & Customization can be more challenging. With our extensive experience in this field, we aim to simplify the process for you with our step by step training.”

10 Reason to Learn AutoCAD .NET API

Eliminate time-consuming manual work by creating scripts and programs that perform tasks like layer creation, dimensioning, and block insertion automatically.

Professionals with AutoCAD customization expertise are highly sought after in architecture, engineering, construction, and manufacturing industries.

CAD engineers with automation and programming skills earn more than traditional drafters or designers due to their advanced capabilities.  

Design and execute intelligent commands that think and react to your design environment, reducing human error and rework.

Create custom commands, toolbars, palettes, and add-ins to streamline your workflow and improve team productivity.

Programmatically generate drawings, reports, and BOMs — ideal for handling repetitive work across large-scale projects.

Global engineering and construction firms rely on automation to scale operations and are always looking for skilled AutoCAD developers.

Move beyond drafting into roles involving CAD system development, BIM integration, and parametric design.

Use the AutoCAD API to connect drawings with Excel, databases, ERP/PLM systems, and more — enabling data-driven design.

With AI and automation reshaping industries, mastering CAD automation prepares you for the future of intelligent design engineering.
