Revit Residential Drafter – U.S. Wood Frame

This remote, full-time position is for a Senior Revit Drafter specializing in U.S. wood-frame residential projects. The role supports a Southern California residential design and engineering team by developing and updating construction documents based on established designs and Revit models. Projects mainly involve home additions, accessory dwelling units (ADUs), and other small residential improvements. The ideal candidate will efficiently work within existing templates and workflows, possess a strong understanding of wood-frame construction, and be capable of independently managing production tasks in a fast-paced environment.

Key Responsibilities
- Develop residential construction drawing sets from supplied Revit models, templates, and reference plans.
- Prepare and update annotations, tags, construction notes, and details to maintain consistency across the drawing set.
- Revise plans based on internal feedback and city plan-check corrections.
- Utilize appropriate Revit families and apply practical knowledge of wood-frame assemblies in drawing development.
- Coordinate work and handoffs with project managers, designers, structural engineers, and permitting teams.
- Manage multiple small projects simultaneously, meeting deadlines while ensuring accuracy and quality.

Required Qualifications
- Excellent spoken and written English skills, with the ability to communicate clearly and professionally with a U.S.-based team.
- Strong Revit production skills focused on construction documentation, annotations, detailing, and drawing revisions.
- Significant hands-on experience with wood-frame residential construction and its technical representation.
- Practical understanding of floor assemblies, foundations and stem walls, engineered floor joists, roof overhangs, and ventilation systems.
- Ability to independently produce coordinated construction drawing packages using existing models, templates, and reference sets.
- Working knowledge of basic U.S. residential building codes and the ability to apply relevant documentation standards.
- Resourcefulness and sound technical judgment to identify and resolve routine issues and ask focused questions when necessary.
- Ability to maintain steady, accurate production pace while communicating effectively with a remote team.
- Availability for full-time work (approximately 160 hours per month) with at least a few hours of daily overlap with the Los Angeles team, to be scheduled collaboratively.

Preferred Qualifications and Benefits
- Experience preparing residential permit drawing sets specifically for California projects.
- Familiarity with addressing city plan-check corrections on U.S. residential projects.
- Background in structural engineering related to wood-frame residential construction.

The team operates with established Revit templates and defined project handoff procedures. Training will be provided on internal workflows, project tracking, reporting, and communication practices. Candidates should already be comfortable with Revit production and the fundamentals of wood-frame construction. The current software environment primarily uses Revit 2023, with plans to transition to newer versions.

Applicants are encouraged to submit their CV along with relevant residential construction drawing samples, clearly indicating their personal contributions, the software used, and involvement in revisions or permit documentation.
