You will create detailed technical drawings in AutoCAD while also conducting site visits, building surveys, field measurements, and existing-condition documentation. The position offers exposure to forensic engineering and existing-building assessments, with a focus on repairs, renovations, and building diagnostics. Work is typically split between 40%-60% CAD drafting and 40%-60% field visits, depending on project demands, and you will collaborate closely with engineers and other project stakeholders in a small, highly collaborative office environment.

Responsibilities

Develop CAD drawings from engineer markups, field measurements, photographs, sketches, existing drawings, and survey information.
Prepare construction details involving architectural and structural building components, assemblies, repairs, and modifications.
Produce existing-condition and as-built drawings based on field surveys and site documentation.
Work closely with engineers to translate technical concepts, sketches, and field information into clear and accurate drawings.
Establish and maintain CAD standards, drawing templates, title blocks, layer structures, and drafting procedures.
Review and improve existing CAD workflows, standards, and documentation processes.
Serve as an internal resource for AutoCAD software, drafting best practices, and workflow improvements.
Assist with the implementation and management of BIM/Revit workflows where applicable.
Coordinate drawing development with project engineers, architects, contractors, and outside consultants.
Conduct site visits throughout the region to document existing conditions of buildings and structures.
Perform detailed field measurements and translate field information into accurate drawings and as-built documentation.
Observe and document architectural and structural building components and existing construction conditions.
Assist engineers during building inspections, site surveys, construction observations, and existing-condition assessments.

Identify and document building materials, assemblies, structural components, and construction details in the field.
Utilize laser measuring equipment, scanners, drones, and other field technologies when applicable.
Prepare site sketches, field documentation, and supporting project information for project records.
Maintain detailed and organized records from site visits and ensure information is integrated into project documentation.
Travel independently to project sites and client locations as required across designated regions.
Assist with forensic investigations and building assessments related to damage, deterioration, construction issues, or other building conditions.
Work closely with architects, engineers, contractors, property owners, and other project stakeholders to support project delivery.
Manage multiple projects and deadlines simultaneously while maintaining high standards of quality and accuracy.
Ensure accuracy, consistency, and quality of all drafting and field documentation produced.
Coordinate office-based drafting work with information gathered during site visits to maintain alignment between design and field conditions.
Contribute to the continuous improvement of technical standards, drafting practices, and project workflows.
Develop a strong understanding of each project's building systems and construction conditions to produce accurate technical documentation.
