Qualifications

The ideal candidate will have knowledge of or be willing to learn:

• Develop structural Revit models and drawing sets from architectural backgrounds and models with minimal markup — foundation plans, framing plans, sections, details, and general notes
• Lay out gravity framing systems (joist/beam/girder/column spacing, bearing conditions, deck spans) using sound rough-proportioning judgment, with member sizing and final design performed by the project engineer
• Select and adapt appropriate typical details and basic connections (bearing, shear, base plates, embeds, ledgers) from company standards and industry references, and recognize where a project-specific detail is needed
• Recognize which structural systems are applicable to a given project type — steel, cast-in-place and precast concrete, masonry, cold-formed and conventional wood framing — and set up plans accordingly
• Read and interpret architectural, structural, and MEP drawings and specifications, and identify coordination conflicts, missing information, and constructability issues early
• Support design-phase clash detection and BIM/Revit coordination workflows across multidisciplinary models
• Participate in model-based design reviews, including constructability, operability, and maintainability reviews
• Maintain drawing sets through design revisions, permit comments, and construction-phase changes (RFIs, as-builts)
• Organize and coordinate technical documents consistent with company BIM/Revit and drawing standards, and perform quality control checks on your own work before engineer review
