• Revit Standards and Tools: Depending on experience, contribute to the development and improvement of RPA’s Revit standards, templates, families, drafting tools, and production workflows. Experienced candidates may also support staff training and knowledge sharing.
• Project Support: Communicate with engineers and project managers regarding assignments, schedules, and technical questions, and provide CADD assistance to other RPA engineering groups as project needs require.
