Job description

Playcraft Systems is seeking a Design Project Coordinator to support communication, project coordination, and technical design efforts within our Design Studio. This role serves as a key connection point between our nationwide distributors and our internal design team, helping ensure projects move efficiently from concept through final design output.
This position is ideal for someone with foundational AutoCAD experience who is interested in developing specialized expertise within Playcraft Systems' unique design, compliance, and distributor support environment. The successful candidate will receive training in Playcraft processes, playground safety standards, and design coordination practices.
Essential Duties and Responsibilities:
  • Project Intake and Distributor Coordination: Support communication with distributors to clarify project goals, timelines, site information, and customer needs. Assist with gathering project details and maintaining accurate project documentation throughout the design process.
  • AutoCAD Site Plan Support: Use AutoCAD to place and organize pre-designed playground models into professional site plans and layout documents. Assist with applying ADA-related elements, templates, and standardized design details. This role focuses on site layout and document preparation rather than creating or modeling components directly in AutoCAD.
  • Compliance & Design Support: Learn and apply industry-specific guidelines related to ADA accessibility, playground safety standards, and internal design requirements. Assist with reviewing projects for completeness and accuracy.
  • Team Collaboration: Partner closely with the Design Studio team to support workflow coordination, communication, and continuous improvement initiatives. Encourage positive collaboration between distributors and internal designers.
  • Product Integration: Support the incorporation of Playcraft and partner products, including shade, surfacing, and site amenities, into overall playground concepts and layouts.
