Job description

Build Your Career as an Employee-Owner
Kovach Enclosure Systems is seeking a highly experienced Senior Drafter to serve as the department's highest-level technical drafting professional.
The Senior Drafter leads our most complex and technically demanding architectural enclosure projects from project kickoff through fabrication and completion. This position serves as the primary technical drafting contact and takes ownership of drawing quality, constructability, project schedules, and drafting labor budgets.
The Senior Drafter also provides department-wide technical leadership, mentors experienced drafting and BIM professionals, performs advanced quality-assurance reviews, and helps develop the standards and processes that support consistent, high-quality work across the department.
As an employee-owned company, Kovach gives employees the opportunity to contribute to the company's success while sharing in the value they help create.
What You'll Do
  • Lead complex and high-profile drafting projects from project turnover through fabrication and completion.
  • Maintain comprehensive knowledge of project scope, façade systems, specifications, schedules, budgets, fabrication requirements, installation conditions, and technical risks.
  • Oversee the development of shop drawings, fabrication drawings, BIM models, takeoffs, bills of material, material orders, releases, and related project deliverables.
  • Monitor drafting schedules and labor usage and recommend actions to address budget, resource, schedule, scope, or quality risks.
  • Coordinate drafting activities with Project Management, Engineering, Manufacturing, Field Operations, BIM resources, and outside partners.
  • Serve as the department's senior technical resource for façade systems, detailing, system interfaces, fabrication, installation, and constructability.
  • Mentor BIM Drafters, Drafter II employees, Drafter III employees, and other drafting personnel through technical guidance and project reviews.
  • Perform advanced quality-assurance reviews for accuracy, constructability, fabrication readiness, installation feasibility, and compliance with Kovach standards.
  • Ensure errors, omissions, conflicts, redlines, and review comments are resolved before project deliverables are released.
  • Review outsourced drafting work and address recurring technical, quality, communication, and workflow concerns.
  • Develop and refine drafting standards, procedures, checklists, templates, details, and technical resources.
  • Identify and support improvements involving CAD methods, BIM workflows, automation, software utilization, and document control.
  • Participate in project coordination and constructability meetings and communicate technical risks and recommended solutions.
  • Support employee onboarding, technical training, project recovery efforts, and department process improvement.

What You'll Bring
  • Extensive experience leading complex drafting projects from kickoff through fabrication.
  • Expert-level technical drafting knowledge and proficiency.
  • Comprehensive understanding of architectural enclosure and façade systems, detailing, fabrication, installation, system interfaces, and constructability.
  • Ability to maintain detailed knowledge of project scope, systems, schedules, budgets, risks, and deliverables.
  • Experience reviewing highly complex drawings, models, takeoffs, and releases for constructability, fabrication readiness, and compliance.
  • Ability to resolve advanced technical issues involving façade systems, adjacent conditions, fabrication, and installation.
  • Experience providing advanced technical guidance to experienced drafting and BIM professionals.
  • Ability to develop practical drafting standards, procedures, review processes, and technical resources.
  • Strong understanding of project schedules, drafting labor estimates, budgets, and resource requirements.
  • Ability to analyze project performance and recommend improvements without compromising quality.
  • Ability to communicate complex technical information clearly to both technical and nontechnical stakeholders.
  • Ability to influence technical outcomes and provide leadership without formal supervisory authority.
  • Strong ownership, judgment, accountability, and follow-through.

Technical Knowledge
  • Expert-level AutoCAD or comparable drafting software
  • Complex shop and fabrication drawing development
  • Architectural enclosure systems and façade detailing
  • Fabrication and field installation practices
  • Advanced quality assurance and constructability review
  • Material takeoffs, bills of material, material orders, and releases
  • Project scheduling, drafting labor estimates, and budgets
  • BIM coordination and model-driven workflows
  • Bluebeam Revu
  • Microsoft Office and project collaboration software
  • Revit knowledge is preferred

Education and Experience
An associate degree, technical certificate, or coursework in Drafting Technology, Architectural Drafting, Computer-Aided Design, Building Information Modeling, Engineering Technology, Construction Technology, Architecture, or a related field is preferred.
An equivalent combination of education, technical training, industry certifications, and extensive directly applicable experience will also be considered.
Why Join Kovach?
At Kovach, employees are more than members of the team. They are employee-owners who contribute directly to the company's continued growth and success.

  • 401(k) plan with a 125% company match on the first 6% you contribute, subject to plan eligibility requirements
  • Medical insurance
  • Dental insurance
  • Vision insurance
  • Additional voluntary and optional benefit programs
  • Paid time off
  • Opportunities for professional growth and advancement
  • A collaborative environment focused on accountability, technical excellence, quality, and continuous improvement
