CAD Industry Specialist

• Create detailed Concept Site Plans (CSPs) in Civil 3D, incorporating civil layout fundamentals, grading feasibility, drainage concepts, utility tie‑ins, and circulation paths.
• Prepare preliminary grading diagrams, rough‑grading concepts, and drainage flow paths to ensure site feasibility.
• Draft plan views, profiles, topographic representations, and conceptual utility layouts as needed.
• Maintain and update CAD files throughout design iterations and project changes.
• Maintain internal Civil CSP template and files with regular updates.

• Research AHJ requirements, zoning codes, setbacks, easements, right‑of‑way restrictions, and environmental constraints.
• Ensure all site plans adhere to local, state, and federal engineering/drafting standards.

• Review survey data, aerials, topographic maps, and available civil drawings to validate site viability.
• Perform basic quantity checks, evaluate slope impacts, and identify potential grading or drainage conflicts.
• Support conceptual engineering including grading strategies, stormwater considerations, and truck circulation evaluations.
• Experience preparing exhibits, feasibility studies, or entitlement packages.
• Familiarity with permitting workflows and submittal standards.

• Work closely with Real Estate, Design, Construction, Engineering, Architecture, and external civil consultants to align design requirements and resolve conflicts.
• Participate in project review meetings; present plan changes and incorporate feedback from stakeholders.
• Strong attention to detail and quality control.
• Ability to manage multiple concurrent deadlines in a high‑volume workflow.
• Clear communication skills for cross‑department collaboration.

• Review drawing sets for accuracy, completeness, and compliance with standards before submission.
• Maintain organized documentation, version tracking, and drawing records across multiple fast‑moving projects.
• Address redlines from internal reviewers and municipal agencies as needed.

• Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering, Architecture, Engineering Technology, or a related field preferred.

• 1–3 years in civil site design, CAD drafting, engineering support, or planning roles.
• Experience with retail, commercial, or national brand development programs preferred.

• Proficiency in AutoCAD; Civil 3D strongly preferred given industry standards for grading, surfaces, profiles, and utility layout work.
• Ability to interpret surveys, topographic data, and engineering documents.
• Familiarity with GIS layers, mapping tools, and plat research.
• Experience with Bluebeam, Smartsheet, and Microsoft Office.

• Proactive problem-solver with the ability to spot grading, circulation, or code‑related design conflicts early.
• Comfortable giving and receiving detailed redline feedback.
