About the Role:

We are seeking a detail-oriented CAD / Rendering Designer to transform concepts into compelling, accurate 2D/3D site plans, product drawings, and photo-realistic renderings. Working closely with our Senior CAD designer, you will play a critical role in bringing custom recreational environments to life for client proposals, manufacturing, and city permitting.

• Draft structural drawings, detail sheets, and site layouts required for city submittals, permitting, and engineering approval.
• Work alongside sales reps, project managers, and equipment manufacturers (e.g., Superior Recreational Products) to adapt custom themes (e.g., space, nature, athletic) to unique client site dimensions.
• Adjust designs efficiently based on client feedback, safety clearances, or budget constraints.

Qualifications & Skills:

• Qualification in Industrial Design, Architecture, CAD Drafting, Landscape Architecture, or a related technical field (or equivalent hands-on experience).
• 2+ years of professional drafting and 3D rendering experience, ideally in commercial construction, outdoor recreation, landscape design, or site development.
• Advanced in AutoCAD (2D drafting & layout).
• Proficient in 3D modeling and rendering tools such as SketchUp, 3ds Max, Revit, Lumion, V-Ray, or Enscape.
• Working knowledge of Adobe Creative Cloud (Photoshop, InDesign) for pitch presentations.
• Ability to read and interpret site surveys, architectural blueprints, elevation plans, and civil site conditions.
• Familiarity with safety and accessibility guidelines is a strong plus.
• Strong spatial awareness, acute attention to detail, and the ability to manage multiple tight-deadline projects simultaneously.
