• Accurately incorporate engineering comments, sketches and PDF mark-ups into drawing revisions.
• Coordinate structural drawings with architectural documentation and identify missing information, inconsistencies and conflicts.
• Refer technical questions, design conflicts and proposed changes to the Structural Engineer before incorporating them.
• Ensure plans, sections, details, schedules, member labels, dimensions and notes are coordinated throughout the drawing set.
• Maintain drawing revision records, file names and document-control procedures.
• Produce issue-ready PDF drawing sets and maintain orderly AutoCAD files.
• Assist with developing and maintaining Spanstruct standard details, notes, blocks and templates.
• Attend online coordination and drawing-review meetings when required and communicate progress promptly.

• Good written and spoken English for technical communication.
• Ability to manage multiple small projects and revisions simultaneously.
• Ability to work independently while following the Structural Engineer's instructions.

• Dimensions, levels and drawing references are correct.
• Superseded information has been removed and revisions correctly recorded.
• Architectural and structural information is clearly distinguished.
• No unapproved structural assumptions have been introduced.
• The drawing set is clear, coordinated and suitable for construction once approved.

Qualifications

• A diploma, certificate, associate degree or equivalent qualification in drafting, civil engineering technology, building design or a related discipline is preferred. Applicants with strong demonstrated structural drafting experience and a high-quality portfolio may also be considered.
