[Hiring] Structural Engineering Revit Drafter @Better-Pros

Role Description

Are you a highly experienced Structural Revit Drafter who thrives on turning engineering concepts and markups into complete, coordinated, constructible drawing sets — with minimal supervision? One of our Florida-based clients is looking for a Structural Revit Drafter to join their structural engineering team full-time, taking ownership of structural models and drawing packages across a wide range of project types and materials.

What you'll do:

• Develop complete structural models and construction-document packages in Revit.
• Work independently from engineering sketches, concepts, calculations, and markups.
• Translate design intent into coordinated structural plans, sections, schedules, and details.
• Take ownership of structural drawing packages from initial setup through final issuance.
• Set up and manage structural Revit models, including levels, grids, coordinates, worksets, linked models, view templates, filters, families, and sheets.
• Model and document structural columns, beams, girders, joists, slabs, foundations, walls, braced frames, moment frames, openings, and miscellaneous structural elements.
• Determine the plans, sections, details, dimensions, notes, and references required to produce clear and constructible documents.
• Coordinate structural models and drawings with architectural, MEP, civil, fabrication, and other consultant information.
• Review updated architectural models and identify changes that affect structural documentation.
• Identify and help resolve clashes involving structural framing, ducts, penetrations, shafts, stairs, elevators, slab openings, walls, and foundations.
• Review drawings for constructability and identify conditions that could generate RFIs or field conflicts.
• Track and accurately incorporate engineer markups throughout all affected views, sheets, details, and schedules.
• Perform thorough QA/QC reviews before permit, bid, or construction issuance.
• Verify grids, dimensions, elevations, member sizes, references, details, annotations, and coordination across the full drawing set.
• Identify incomplete, inconsistent, or potentially incorrect information and communicate questions efficiently to the engineer.
• Maintain organized, accurate, and efficient Revit models.
• Troubleshoot Revit visibility, worksharing, coordinate, linked-model, warning, performance, and model-stability issues.
• Create or modify structural families, tags, templates, and standard details when necessary.
• Support the development and improvement of Revit/BIM standards and workflows.
• Review other team members' work and potentially mentor junior drafters.

Qualifications

• Minimum 14 years of structural drafting or structural design-documentation experience.
• Extensive recent experience using Revit for structural projects.
• Proven ability to independently develop complete structural drawing packages.
• Strong understanding of structural load paths and gravity and lateral systems.
• Experience working with multiple structural materials and systems, including structural steel, reinforced concrete, post-tensioned concrete, masonry/CMU, wood and light-frame construction, cold-formed metal framing, precast concrete, and foundations, grade beams, pile caps, mat foundations, and slabs.
• Experience with different project types, such as commercial, residential, multifamily, hospitality, healthcare, education, and industrial buildings.
• Strong knowledge of construction-document standards and structural detailing.
• Experience coordinating structural models with architectural and MEP models.
• Strong understanding of constructability and how structural systems are assembled in the field.
• Demonstrated QA/QC and problem-detection capabilities.
• Ability to work from incomplete or schematic engineering information while clearly documenting assumptions and escalating engineering decisions appropriately.
• Ability to distinguish between drafting/design assistance and decisions that must be made by the structural engineer.
• Proficiency in structural Revit modeling and documentation, worksharing and central/cloud-based models, levels, grids, shared coordinates, and model origins, worksets, view templates, filters, and visibility settings, architectural and consultant-linked models, Copy/Monitor and Coordination Review, structural families and parametric content, sheets, annotations, tags, dimensions, sections, and details, and model warnings, audits, file-size management, and performance optimization.
• Strong written and verbal English communication skills.
• Ability to manage deadlines, priorities, and multiple engineering requests without sacrificing quality.

Requirements

• Experience with BIM 360/Autodesk Construction Cloud.
• Experience with Navisworks and clash detection.
• Familiarity with Dynamo, scripts, macros, or Revit add-ins.

Benefits

• Competitive compensation.
• Flexibility.
• Constant learning and growth.
• Chance to work anywhere with one of our +130 active clients across the United States.
