Full Job Posting

Experience

  • 8+ years of structural drafting, modelling and detailing on buildings
  • Reports to
  • Director of Structural
  • Project types
  • Multi-family residential, commercial and institutional buildings across Alberta and Canada
  • Why this role
  • We're growing our structural team in Edmonton. You'll lead structural drawing production on multi-family residential, commercial and institutional buildings — modelling in Revit, detailing connections and coordinating with our in-house mechanical, electrical and civil teams so drawings go out complete and clash-free.
  • Must-haves
  • Diploma in civil or structural engineering technology.
  • Advanced Revit and AutoCAD skills.
  • Detailing experience in wood, steel and concrete.
  • Working knowledge of the Alberta Building Code as it applies to structural drawings.
  • Experience reviewing others' drawings and guiding junior staff.
  • What you'll do
  • Lead structural drawing production on your projects — from first model to the issued-for-construction set.
  • Model and detail in Revit and AutoCAD — foundations, framing, connections and reinforcing.
  • Turn engineers' sketches and calculations into clear, buildable drawings, flagging gaps before they reach site.
  • Coordinate with architects and our in-house mechanical, electrical and civil teams to catch clashes early.
  • Set and maintain drafting standards — templates, a details library and QA/QC checks for the structural team.
  • Mentor junior technologists and drafters, and review their work.
  • Support construction — prepare revisions, check shop drawings against the design, and visit site when needed.
  • What success looks like after year one
  • Your details and templates are the ones the structural team reaches for first.
  • Drawing sets on your projects go out with fewer RFIs and fewer revisions.
  • Junior technologists on the team produce cleaner sets because of your reviews.
