As a remote drafter, your typical day involves interpreting design concepts or engineering sketches and creating detailed technical drawings and plans using specialized CAD software. You’ll collaborate with architects, engineers, or project managers via virtual meetings and rely on cloud-based file sharing and project management tools to stay connected. Reviewing drawings for accuracy, responding to revisions, and ensuring compliance with relevant codes and standards are also routine tasks. While workflow may fluctuate with project demands, excellent organization and proactive communication are critical for staying on track and meeting deadlines.

To excel in Remote Drafting, you should possess strong technical drawing skills, proficiency in CAD software (such as AutoCAD or Revit), and a relevant degree or certification in drafting, architecture, or engineering.

  • Compute straightforward material volumes and weights, such as cubic yards of concrete or total linear feet of standard bridge railing
  • Perform basic geometry to verify horizontal and vertical clearances, standard spacing, and simple linear dimensions on drafting assignments

What Required Skills You'll Bring:
  • Bachelors and 2+ years of related work experience OR Associate's Degree 2-year technical degree (or equivalent) and 4+ years of related work experience

  • Ability to navigate pre-configured CAD workspaces, active design files, sheet views, and model spaces
  • Ability to accurately apply text scaling, dimension styles, callouts, and leader lines appropriate for varying sheet print sizes
  • Skill in reading and understanding structural engineering sketches, plans, sections, profiles, and cross-sections

What Desired Skills You'll Bring:
  • Knowledge of reinforcing steel layout rules, concrete cover requirements, bar lap splice/development lengths, and complex bending schedules
  • Ability to perform accurate structural calculations for concrete volumes, weights of steel, and surface areas of coatings
  • Familiarity with individual state Department of Transportation (DOT) CAD standards, cell libraries, and delivery protocols
