  • Translating customer needs into robust, buildable designs using tools like AutoCAD, Revit, and RSTAB
  • Designing and drafting steel framing systems and 3D models for plant and support structures
  • Creating detailed material take-offs to help move designs seamlessly into production
  • Conducting site visits to see your designs in action and refine them where needed
  • Navigating complex technical challenges with a creative, can-do mindset
  • Overseeing project workflows, collaborating across teams, and delivering high-quality results
  • Supporting and mentoring junior team members to grow alongside you

  • Excellent communication—confident with clients, colleagues, and contractors
  • A hands-on, solutions-first approach to challenges
  • Curiosity, ambition, and a love for learning new technologies

Benefits

Why You’ll Love It Here

  • Work in a tight-knit team where your input matters
  • Tackle interesting and meaningful design projects—not just templates and redlines
  • Develop skills across structural, M&E, and BIM domains
  • Be part of a culture that’s friendly, reliable, can-do, and knowledgeable
  • Opportunity for real career growth within a dynamic company
