  • Prepare permit-ready CD sets for submission to local authorities.
  • Prepare CD sets to be presented to the general contractor.
  • Pick up and implement redlines efficiently during the CD phase, maintaining accuracy and consistency across the set.
  • Translate schematics, notes, sketches, and direction into clean, accurate, and well-coordinated drawings.
  • Ensure drawings are coordinated, consistent, and aligned with project standards throughout the coverage period.
  • Communicate clearly and reliably to ensure a smooth handoff and continuity on the project.

What you'll need to know

  • Strong AutoCAD proficiency — comfortable producing full construction document sets.
  • Proven experience working on residential projects.
  • Experience translating schematics, redlines, and sketches into clean, consistent documentation.
  • Solid understanding of drawing standards and coordination for architectural deliverables.
  • Ability to work independently and pick up an ongoing project quickly with minimal oversight.
  • Advanced English level with clear written and verbal communication skills.
  • Strong attention to detail and a production-oriented mindset.
  • Availability to cover the full period from September 28th to October 23rd, 2026.

A great plus
