About this job

Are you a detail-driven AutoCAD Architect with solid U.S. residential experience and a strong grasp of wood frame construction? Do you enjoy transforming design concepts into precise, permit-ready Construction Documents? We’re looking for a semi-senior to senior AutoCAD Production Architect to support Single Family Residential projects for a U.S.-based architecture studio. This is a part-time remote opportunity aligned with Eastern Time (ET) — open to candidates based in LATAM. Apply now!

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

Support Single Family Residential projects from Conceptual Design through full Construction Documents.
Act as a direct technical extension of the Principal Architect, working one-on-one with increasing autonomy as trust is built.
Develop complete, coordinated, and permit-ready drawing sets in AutoCAD.
Produce high-quality floor plans, elevations, sections, construction details, schedules, and annotations.
Apply wood frame / timber frame construction knowledge to technical documentation and detailing.
Pick up and implement redlines accurately across SD, DD, and CD phases.

Develop Construction Document sets for presentation to General Contractors.
Translate design intent into clean, organized, and technically sound drawings.
Maintain clean layer management and file structure across multiple ongoing residential projects (up to 3 active at a time).
Proactively flag missing information, inconsistencies, or coordination issues.
Ensure all documentation meets U.S. residential drafting standards and production workflows.

What you'll need to know

Proven experience in Single Family Residential projects.
Solid knowledge of wood frame construction / timber frame construction.
Strong experience with construction details and technical documentation.
Advanced English level.
