Projektanti

Projektanti is a term used in some languages and regions to refer to a professional who designs and plans projects. In practice, a projektanti is involved in the early stages of a project, develops design concepts, creates specifications, and coordinates with engineers, architects, and clients to ensure the project goals are met. The scope can span multiple disciplines, including product design, civil and architectural projects, industrial systems, and software or process design, depending on regional usage. In Finnish-speaking contexts, the equivalent title is projektantti, and projektanti may appear as a variant or shortened form in job postings or company names.

Responsibilities commonly include developing design concepts, preparing drawings and models using CAD tools, defining technical requirements, performing feasibility studies, supervising prototyping and testing, and ensuring compliance with standards and budgets. The role emphasizes problem solving, communication, and collaboration across disciplines.

Qualifications typically include a university degree in engineering, architecture, or industrial design, and relevant professional experience. Depending on the field and country, licensure or certification as an engineer, architect, or design professional may be required. Proficiency with CAD software, BIM, and project management tools is common.

Notes: The term is not a fixed licensure; it describes a role rather than a regulated title in many jurisdictions, and responsibilities and qualifications can vary widely.
