The ideal candidate has a strong foundation in AutoCAD, professional experience in interior design, and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative studio environment.

Job Description

This is a hands-on technical design position requiring strong drafting capabilities, excellent attention to detail, and the ability to independently manage multiple assignments.

We are looking for someone who is  proactive, resourceful, and comfortable working with a strong sense of urgency . Our studio operates in a dynamic environment where priorities can shift quickly, and we need someone who can adapt, stay organized, and consistently move projects forward.

The successful candidate will be confident taking direction, asking thoughtful questions when necessary, and executing assignments without requiring constant oversight.

Clear, concise, and efficient communication is essential.  Our Principal Designer manages a demanding schedule, so the ability to provide focused updates, quickly communicate important information, identify potential issues, and present solutions is critical.

We value team members who take ownership of their work, anticipate next steps, and understand the importance of maintaining momentum without sacrificing accuracy or quality.

Key Responsibilities

- Create accurate, detailed AutoCAD drawings for luxury residential interior design projects.
- Develop floor plans, furniture layouts, elevations, reflected ceiling plans, and interior architectural details.
- Prepare construction documentation, cabinetry drawings, millwork details, and custom architectural elements.
- Translate design concepts, sketches, and direction into professional technical drawings.
- Collaborate closely with the Principal Designer and design team to ensure design intent is accurately documented.
- Coordinate technical information with architects, contractors, builders, vendors, and specialty fabricators.
- Review drawings and specifications for accuracy, completeness, and consistency.
- Identify potential design conflicts, missing information, and technical challenges before they impact project timelines.
- Manage multiple assignments simultaneously while maintaining deadlines and quality standards.
- Communicate project progress, outstanding decisions, and potential delays clearly and efficiently.
- Take initiative in resolving technical challenges and moving assigned work forward.
- Maintain organized project documentation, drawings, and revisions.
