Italian to English translations [PRO]
Tech/Engineering - Mechanics / Mech Engineering
Italian term or phrase: disegnatore progettista
This comes from a legal affidavit, the person signing it describes his professional experience. He writes he was a "disegnatore progettista" for a company producing glass-making equipment.

Draftsman sounds too general too me. Any ideas? TIA. V.

agree  philgoddard: "Disegnatore" and "progettista" sound like the same thing to me, but this seems the obvious solution.

Note to reference poster
Asker: Thank you for your reference information. I also talked to colleagues and we came to the conclusion that "project designer" would be more appropriate in the building industry, non in the machine tool making business.
