Job description

GVD Renovations & Remodeling designs and builds decks, additions, and full-home remodels across the greater Sacramento area. We're looking for an Architectural Drafter to turn our project concepts into clean, buildable plans — from deck layouts and framing details to remodel drawings that move smoothly through plan check. We're flexible on the arrangement and welcome contractors, freelancers, and part-time candidates; on-site, hybrid, or remote can all work.

What You'll Work On:

  • Decking and outdoor-living plans, including framing and structural details.
  • Kitchen, bathroom, and whole-home remodel drawings.
  • Room additions and ADU construction documents.
  • Permit sets prepared for submission to local building departments.

Day-to-Day:

  • Draft construction documents in Revit from designer notes, field measurements, and sketches.
  • Produce plan sets that meet California building codes and city requirements.
  • Turn around building-department corrections quickly and cleanly.
  • Coordinate with project managers and designers to keep jobs moving.
  • Handle several projects at once without letting the details slip.

What You'll Need:

  • Hands-on Revit experience (roughly 1-2 years or more).
  • A background drafting residential remodels; deck and structural work is a strong plus.
  • Comfort reading and responding to plan-check corrections.
  • A solid grasp of how a complete construction document set comes together.
  • Dependable communication and the discipline to hit deadlines independently.

Nice to Have:

  • Experience preparing permit-ready sets for California jurisdictions.
  • Familiarity with local deck, addition, and ADU requirements.
  • Comfort working independently with light oversight.

Compensation: Competitive, hourly or per project, based on experience.
