We are seeking a new graduate or early-career architectural professional to assist with the assessment, design, and detailing of roofing, waterproofing, building envelope, and structural restoration projects.
The successful candidate will work under the direction of professional engineers, architects, and project managers to prepare repair drawings, construction details, field documentation, and coordinated construction-document packages.
This is a supervised technical-development role. Early assignments will be treated as training opportunities, with responsibility increasing as the employee develops experience and demonstrates technical competence.

- Prepare roofing details for flashings, parapets, penetrations, drains, scuppers, curbs, transitions, and roof edges.
- Prepare waterproofing details for balconies, walkways, terraces, plaza decks, exterior walls, joints, windows, doors, and related building-envelope interfaces.
- Prepare structural restoration details for concrete spalls, cracks, reinforcing-steel corrosion, slab edges, balconies, walkways, columns, beams, walls, railings, and coatings.
- Participate in field investigations, measurements, photographic documentation, and construction observations.
- Assist with drawing revisions, submittal reviews, requests for information, field reports, punch lists, and closeout documentation.
- Coordinate drawings with project specifications, reports, product requirements, and field conditions.
- Review assigned work for accuracy, completeness, constructability, and consistency before submitting it for quality review.
- Maintain organized project files and follow company drawing, document-control, and quality procedures.
- Communicate progress, missing information, design conflicts, and scheduling concerns to the supervising engineer or project manager.
- Travel to project sites as required.
Qualifications
- Bachelor’s or master’s degree in architecture, architectural engineering, building science, engineering technology, construction management, civil engineering, or a related field.

- Proficient knowledge of AutoCAD, REVIT, and/or similar drafting software.
- Knowledge of Bluebeam, or construction-document preparation is an asset.
- Basic understanding of building construction, materials, drainage, and water-management principles.
- Interest in roofing, waterproofing, building-envelope systems, concrete restoration, or structural repair.
- Strong attention to detail and effective written, verbal, and technical communication skills.
- Ability to follow direction, respond to review comments, manage multiple assignments, and ask questions when information is unclear.
