  • Collaborate Daily: Communicate clearly with surveyors, field crews, and clients over the phone and via email to keep projects moving smoothly.
  • Manage Documents: Utilize Microsoft Word, Excel, and internal software tools to organize project files and specs.

What You Bring

  • CAD Proficiency: Hands-on experience with AutoCAD and a solid grasp of core drafting commands.
  • Hands-on Experience: 1+ years of CAD drafting experience preferred (surveying or civil background is a major plus!).
  • Sharp Eye for Detail: Ability to decipher handwritten field notes and navigate legal property descriptions.
  • Tech Savvy: Comfortable with MS Office (Excel & Word), web research, and eager to learn proprietary company software/codes.
  • Strong Communicator: Clear, professional verbal and phone skills for collaborating with team members and external contacts.
  • Organizational Skills: Ability to prioritize daily tasks, manage multiple timelines, and keep files well-ordered.

Perks & Benefits

  • Up to $2,000 Relocation Allowance for out-of-area candidates.
