Commercial Architectural Drafter (Full Time, Florida)

About this job

Are you a detail-oriented, skilled drafter who enjoys turning architectural concepts into clear, accurate, build-ready documentation? Can you independently develop complete drawing sets, from Construction Documents through Permit Sets? We’re looking for a Commercial Architectural Drafter to join our client’s design team.

Our client has an in-house design team producing high-quality architectural documentation, with a strong focus on mid- to large-scale commercial projects. In this role, you’ll work hand in hand with the in-house architects and project managers, translating design concepts into complete, precise Construction Documents (CD Sets) and Permit Sets. You’ll produce and revise drawings in AutoCAD and Revit, develop comprehensive technical documentation (including Reflected Ceiling Plans), and support presentation and design packages. This is a full-time remote opportunity with overlap with Florida working hours (Eastern Time, ET).

BetterPros unlocks human potential by offering competitive compensation, flexibility, constant learning and growth, and the opportunity to work anywhere you want with one of our +130 active clients across the United States.

What you will do

  • Develop complete Construction Document (CD) Sets and Permit Sets for mid- to large-scale commercial projects.
  • Produce detailed architectural drawings, plans, sections, elevations, and details in AutoCAD, Revit, or other CAD/BIM software.
  • Create detailed construction drawings, including floor plans, reflected ceiling plans (RCPs), interior elevations, millwork details, and furniture layouts.
  • Work closely with architects to understand project requirements and translate design concepts into technical documents.
  • Make timely revisions to drawings based on feedback from architects and project managers.
  • Assist in preparing presentation packages and design documentation.
  • Maintain organized drawing files and documentation for all projects.
  • Adapt to projects of different scales and follow the team’s CAD and filing standards.

What you'll need to know

  • Degree or diploma in Architecture, Architectural Drafting, or a related field.
  • Proven experience on commercial projects (mandatory).
  • Solid experience developing complete Construction Document (CD) Sets and Permit Sets (mandatory).
  • Advanced proficiency in AutoCAD, Revit, and BIM (mandatory).
  • Experience producing complete drawing sets, including RCPs, not just construction details.
  • Experience on mid- to large-scale projects (high-rise experience not required).
  • Ability to produce technical documentation independently, without intensive training in CDs or permitting.
  • A portfolio showcasing complete CD Sets and Permit Sets.
  • Solid understanding of architectural design principles, building systems, and construction methods.
  • Advanced English level and excellent communication and teamwork skills.
  • Availability to overlap with Florida working hours (ET).
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to manage multiple tasks.
  • Ability to perform self-quality checks.

A great plus

  • Working knowledge of SketchUp and Rhino.
  • Experience with 3D modeling and rendering software.
  • 5+ years of experience in architectural drafting or a related role, ideally with a strong commercial background.
  • Familiarity with collaboration tools (e.g., Asana, QuickBooks Time, Microsoft Office, Dropbox, Teams).
