Proficiency with AutoCAD and Revit Structure (or equivalent structural BIM platform).
Working knowledge of structural systems (steel, concrete, timber, masonry) and how design translates into drafting/modeling.
Understanding and application of QA/QC processes, attention to detail, and commitment to accuracy and constructability.
Excellent communication and organizational skills; ability to thrive in a collaborative project team environment.
Nice to Haves as the CAD Technician / Designer – Structural Engineering
Experience working on structural engineering projects (bridges, buildings, industrial structures) in the Northeast (especially Maine).
Familiarity with building codes and structural drafting standards.
Experience with complex BIM workflows, clash detection, or coordinated multi discipline modeling.
Exposure to field coordination with construction teams or site visits.
Interest in or aptitude for taking on increasing technical responsibility and advancing into more specialized roles.
Offers
A meaningful role where your work supports real structural projects across Maine, and your work directly matters.
An employee owner culture — you’re not just a number, you’re part of the firm’s success (the firm is 100% employee owned).
Training, mentorship, and development opportunities to expand your structural CAD/BIM skills and grow your career.
Comprehensive benefits: high employer paid medical coverage, 100% dental/short term disability/life insurance, ESOP + 401(k) with match, earned time off + paid holidays, and a professional development allowance.
