• Visualize design ideas: Create 3D models and graphics to help teams and clients understand proposed spaces and design details.
• Support project delivery: Assist with tender documentation, contractor questions, drawing revisions, and contract administration.
• Stay connected to construction: Participate in site visits and field reviews, documenting observations and helping resolve project issues.
• Contribute to the studio: Support space planning and renovation work, share technical knowledge, and assist junior team members as your experience grows.

• A Diploma in Architectural Technology or equivalent technical training.
• 3+ years of relevant experience preparing architectural or interior construction documentation.
• Strong proficiency in AutoCAD and SketchUp, along with working knowledge of Microsoft Office; experience with Revit and AutoCAD LT is an asset.

• Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage deadlines across multiple projects.
• Clear communication, sound judgment, and a practical approach to problem-solving.
• Experience with hospitality, restaurant, hotel, workplace, or medical interior projects is an asset.
