About the Role

~1 min read

We’re seeking Computer-aided Drafting and Design (CADD) Specialists of various skill levels to support large, complex heavy civil infrastructure programs, including highways, roads, bridges, transit (bus and rail), aviation (international airports), and water/wastewater projects delivered through both traditional and alternative delivery methods. We hire across roadway and bridge plan sets, rail and bus transit drawings, airfield and terminal packages, and water and wastewater conveyance drawings, so we are looking for real depth in heavy civil plan production rather than every discipline at once. You’ll verify submissions against project CADD standards, keep controlled drawing sets current and defensible, and build the exhibits and figures staff need to make and document decisions.

This post is for future roles and not for a specific opportunity that is available right now. We accept applications and conduct interviews in advance of upcoming hiring needs. When a candidate is selected, their profile is activated in our talent pool for this specialty area. We notify our talent pool candidates first whenever we have a project need.
