Job description
$50,000.00 - $95,000.00 per year
- Join a specialized construction team that performs critical foundation work from surveying through final execution
- Play a key role in turning field data into accurate plans and drawings that directly support real-world construction
- Work in a hands‑on environment where your drafting accuracy and technical skill will have visible impact
- Be part of a well‑established, women‑owned contractor that self‑performs major scopes instead of relying heavily on outside teams
- Grow your career in a role that sits at the intersection of surveying, construction, and project execution
This is an on‑site role based in the Chicago area, offering close collaboration with field crews, operations, and project teams in a practical construction environment.
Must have direct experience using CAD for surveying, civil, land development, or closely related drafting work. Candidates without relevant Survey CAD or Civil CAD drafting experience will not be considered.
We are a specialized contractor focused on complete foundation construction and related civil work, from site surveying and drilling through rebar cage construction, concrete placement, finish work, and site cleanup. Our team values accuracy, execution, and staying closely connected to the work in the field.
- Prepare and revise survey and construction‑related CAD drawings based on field data, sketches, and project requirements
- Process survey information into clear, accurate plans and supporting documents
- Support layout, topographic, boundary, as‑built, and construction drafting needs as required
- Coordinate with survey crews, project teams, and operations to ensure drawings align with field conditions and project scope
- Maintain drawing files, revisions, and documentation in an organized manner
- Review data for accuracy, completeness, and consistency before finalizing deliverables
- Help support project execution by producing dependable drafting work on schedule
- Assist with updates, redlines, revisions, and other drafting needs tied to active jobs
- 2+ years of directly relevant Survey CAD, Civil CAD, or land surveying drafting experience
- Proficiency with AutoCAD or similar CAD software
- Experience working with survey data, field notes, and technical drawings
- Strong attention to detail and commitment to drafting accuracy
- Able to work closely with field and office teams
- Organized, dependable, and comfortable managing deadlines
You will be joining a team that values precision, accountability, and practical problem‑solving. This is a strong opportunity for someone who enjoys technical drafting work, wants to contribute to real construction projects, and likes being part of a team where their work directly supports field execution.
