Company Overview:

At Citadel, we possess the skills and expertise to tackle a wide range of commercial projects, paired with deep appreciation for culture and values. Recognizing that each project is unique, we adopt a customized approach by understanding our clients, their values and their goals. We believe that maintaining a positive and enthusiastic attitude is crucial for success. Whether managing a major commercial project or engaging without team, we consistently bring a high energy and commitment.

Job Overview:

The Design & Permitting Associate supports our branded retail / commercial rollout programs by producing accurate early site layouts, developing coordinated architectural models and drawings, and assisting with jurisdictional permit submittals. This entry-level-to-early-career role is ideal for a detail‑oriented drafter/designer who is comfortable in BIM (Revit) and AutoCAD, eager to learn our prototype drawing standards, and willing to navigate online permitting portals.

Key Responsibilities:

Develop preliminary site and floor plan layouts from surveys, civil backgrounds, and client program criteria.
Build and maintain coordinated Revit models from prototype templates; produce plan, elevation, section, and detail sheets per company standards.
Translate markups/redlines from senior designers, architects, or project managers into accurate construction documents.
Import and coordinate consultant backgrounds (civil, structural, MEP) and update drawing sets accordingly.
Use AutoCAD and/or Revit drafting tools to generate dimensionally accurate details and schedules.
Prepare export packages (PDF, DWF, DWG, IFC as required) for internal reviews and external stakeholders.
Prepare jurisdictional permit application forms using provided project data; track required attachments (drawings, reports, calculations, fees, affidavits).
Upload drawings and documents to municipal or third‑party online portals; confirm receipt and application completeness.
Log permit numbers, plan review cycles, comments, and approval dates in the project tracking system.
Assist in responding to plan review comments—route to responsible discipline, update drawings, compile resubmittal packages.
Coordinate with expediters or AHJ (Authorities Having Jurisdiction) contacts as directed.
Support drawing and permitting workflows for an assigned group of brand clients.
Maintain brand‑specific prototype libraries (title blocks, typical details, finish legends, equipment blocks) under guidance of senior staff.
Track brand program nuances: signage standards, drive‑thru clearances, equipment footprints, accessibility requirements, and jurisdictional hot buttons common to each program.

Qualifications:

Experience: 1–3 years in architectural drafting, production design, or closely related role (internships count). Portfolio required with application.
Software: Proficient in Revit (BIM) and AutoCAD for 2D/3D production; working ability in SketchUp for quick massing / visualization.
Document Tools: Adobe Acrobat and/or Bluebeam Revu for markups; familiarity with Google Earth or similar for site context.
Construction Literacy: Basic understanding of building assemblies, materials, and construction sequencing; able to coordinate drawing details across disciplines.
Plan Reading: Able to read and interpret surveys, civil grading plans, utility plans, engineering drawings, and specifications.
Productivity Apps: Basic Microsoft Office (Outlook, Excel, Word) for communication and tracking.
Exposure to municipal permit processes: filling out applications, navigating online submittal portals, tracking status.
Basic understanding of building and zoning code concepts (occupancy, egress, fire separations, ADA / accessibility).
Interior / fixture design experience or coursework.
Familiarity with multi‑site rollout or prototype‑based design programs.
